4.2 ALARM SIGNALING

The machine uses two different alarms:

A. LACK OF WATER IN THE TANK: this alarm starts when there’s no water in the tank, the steam
activation is stopped. The yellow signalling light start to flash, and a buzzer rings on and off until the
water level inside the tank is restored.

B. LACK OF WATER IN THE BOILER: this alarm starts when the usual water level inside the boiler
is not correct, the steam activation is stopped. The yellow signalling light switches on, and a buzzer
rings on continuously. All you should do is switch off the machine, and wait at least one minute
before turn on again the main switch. When the machine start its duty again, the correct level of
water, will be prompted restored in the boiler, and so you can start again do use your machine.

CAUTION: if one of the alarms described before, remain activated and prevent you to use your
machi ne, means that one or more components may not work correctly; call immediately the
Assistance, and communicate the situation.

4.3 USEFUL ADVICE

Before cleaning any fabric ensure that the steam will not cause damage, shrinkage or discoloration
by  testing  on  an  inconspicuous  part  of  the  fabric.  Use  the  rectangular  brush  without  a  cloth  for
stubborn dirt on ceramic floor tiles. Loosen the dirt directly with the bristles and then only use the
cloth to remove the residue.
Clean  windows  and  large  mirrors  with  the  window  nozzle  that  is  fitted  with  a  rubber  squeegee
attachment for drying the surface. If the panes are frozen, hold the window nozzle approximately
50 cm from the glass with the regulator set to the minimum steam setting. Use the extension tubes
to clean areas that cannot be easily reached. Use the rectangular brush complete with a cloth fitted
to clean carpets, rugs, parquet and hard floor surfaces. If the rectangular brush is too large, use the
triangular brush particularly on chairs, sofas, mattresses, corners, etc. Wrap a cloth around the brush
when cleaning fabrics.  Both of these brushes can be used directly connected to the hand grip, or in
conjunction with either one or both extension tubes. To clean inaccessible areas, use a small round
brush fitted to accessory no.7.
Car hub caps can be cleaned with direct contact, but keep to a distance of 10 - 20 cm away from
car tyres.  Always use a soft cloth to remove oil or tar stains from car paint work after softening the
tar with steam, do not use a brush.
If cleaning delicate items (e.g. plants) keep the nozzle at a distance of 20 - 40 cm away from the
leaves. Avoid direct contact between the steam and the leaves.
