Pull the terry cloth cover over the hand noz-
zle. Especially well-suited for small washa-
ble areas, shower stalls and mirrors.
Suited for all washable walls and floor cov-
erings, e.g. stone floors, tiles and PVC
floors. Work slowly on very dirty surfaces to
allow the steam to act on the dirt for a long-
er period of time.
Note: Detergent residue or care emulsions
that are still present on the surfaces to be
cleaned, can lead to smears when steam
cleaned. However, these will disappear
with repeated cleaning procedures.

Danger
 The steam pressure iron must not be
used if it has been dropped, shows vis-
ible signs of damage or if it leaks.
 The steam pressure iron is hot and
so is the steam jet! Point out to other
people the possible risk of being scald-
ed or burnt. Never direct the steam jet at
people or animals (risk of scalding). Do
not touch any electrical leads or com-
bustible objects with the hot steam
pressure iron.

Warning
 The steam pressure iron and its con-
necting cable must be kept out of reach
of children under the age of 8 during the
heating and cooling down periods.
 The steam pressure iron must be used
and placed on a stabile surface.
Note: We recommend using the Kärcher
ironing table with active steam extraction
(2.884-933.0). This ironing table has been
designed to match your new steam clean-
er. It facilitates and, thus, accelerates the
ironing process substantially. In any case,
you should use an ironing table which is
covered with a mesh-type underlay allow-
ing the steam to pass through.
Note: Please do not select the VapoHydro
function while the steam pressure iron is
plugged in to prevent the laundry to be
ironed from getting wet.

Make sure that there is fresh tap water
in the boiler of the steam cleaner.
 Tightly insert the steam plug of the iron
into the appliance connector. The plug
must click into place audibly.
Display - iron will light up green perma-
nently.
 Start-up the steam cleaner according to
the description.
Recommended steam levels:
 Wait until the steam cleaner is ready to
use.
All fabrics can be steam ironed. Delicate
imprints or fabrics should be ironed on the
reverse or according to the manufacturer’s
specifications.
Note: For these sensitive textiles, we rec-
ommend using the KÄRCHER non-stick
ironing sole BE 6006 (Ordner no. 2.860-
142.0).

Adjust the temperature control of the
steam iron within the notched range
(•••/MAX).
 As soon as the heater display of the iron
switches off, you can start ironing.
Note: The sole plate must be hot to pre-
vent the steam from condensing on the
sole plate and dripping onto the gar-
ment to be ironed.
