PRECAUTIONS KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS · Read these instructions for use carefully before using the appliance. · Any use which does not comply with these instructions will invalidate the warranty. [. . . ] Unscrew the safety cap (A) (fig. 1) and fill the boiler with 1, 3 l of water using the jug (10) and the funnel (9) provided (fig. 2). Carefully screw the safety cap all the way back on. Make sure that the safety cap (A) is screwed on properly. If it is not, the appliance may leak steam. Plug the power cord (D) into a suitable earthed outlet. USE 1a. Press the ON/OFF (B) switch; it will light up. 2a. Wait until the pressure indicator light (C) comes on (about 10 minutes). 3a. The steam pistol (2) has a safety lock (3) to prevent accidental production of steam by children or people unfamiliar with the appliance. To prevent accidental steam production, move the safety lock button ATTENTION: Danger of burns! · When refilling the boiler, use HOT rather than cold water, pour in gently at first and keep your face away. Otherwise the still hot boiler walls can spit drops of very hot water or steam spray. · Do not put any detergent or chemical substance in the boiler. · Make sure the patented safety cap is fully and correctly screwed on, otherwise you may experience very hot steam escaping from around the cap. · Do not refill the boiler while it is still hot. Allow it to cool down for a few minutes before refilling. · Do not empty the appliance when the water in the boiler is still hot. (3) back. When you wish to resume steam production, move the safety lock button (3) in the opposite direction and press the steam button (4) (fig. The first time you use the appliance it may leak a few drops of water due to incomplete temperature stabilisation in the hose. We therefore suggest that you initially direct the jet of steam onto a cloth, until the jet of steam appears uniform. NOTE: the pressure indicator (C) will go on and off while the appliance is in use. This indicates that the electrical resistance is operating to maintain constant pressure and should therefore be considered normal. CAUTION: if you press the steam button (4) when the appliance is still under pressure, even if the appliance is turned off and unplugged, steam may be released through the hose. So when you turn off the appliance, press (4) until no more steam comes out of the appliance before putting the appliance away. [. . . ] Add extension tubes to the steam pistol if necessary to reach hard-to-reach spots. LARGE BRUSH (8) Before you can connect the large brush to extension tubes, you must apply the brush attachment (8D) to the brush as shown in fig. 7. To clean floors, place the brush on a dry, clean cloth and move it back and forth without pressing down on it. When one side is dirty, turn the cloth around. [. . . ]
