2 To guarantee an optimal lifetime for the foam filter, carefully remove it from the float
unit (Fig. 48).
3 Clean the filter separately (Fig. 49).
Squeeze the foam filter to remove excess water. Do not wring it!

Double-injection nozzle

1 Rinse the double-injection nozzle under the tap (Fig. 50).
2 Remove the hard floor adapter and clean it separately (Fig. 41).

hoses into a sink or toilet. This prevents shampoo residues from caking the inside of the
hoses and clogging them up.

shampoo pump

To extend the lifetime of the shampoo pump, clean it with a mixture of water and white
vinegar once a year.
1 Pour 1 litre of white vinegar (8% acetic acid) into the shampoo reservoir and top it up with
lukewarm fresh water.
2 Let the appliance run in shampooing mode until the shampoo reservoir is empty. Collect the
vinegar solution in a bucket.
3 Repeat this procedure with 1 litre of fresh water to rinse out any vinegar residues.
