The Vapormate M 388 has a built-in water tank holding 1.6 litres.
Switch the steam cleaner off and remove the mains plug from the
socket. The steam cleaner must always be disconnected from the mains
when filling or topping up with water. Unscrew the tank cap (Fig. 18)
by pressing the cap down and simultaneously turning it anti-clockwise.
Use the funnel and measuring jug supplied when filling with water
(Fig. 19).

Only fill with pure water without additives of any kind, e.g. perfume,
cleaning agents, alcohol, as they could damage the machine and make
it dangerous to use. It is advisable to use distilled water to prevent lime-
scale deposits if your water is very hard (over 2.5 mmol/l or 21 °dH).
Otherwise boil the water first to extend the appliance's service life.
Caution:
Do not exceed the maximum quantity of 1.6 litres when filling the
tank!
Screw the tank cap firmly back on by turning it clockwise under
pressure.
Tip:
The heating up time will be shortened if warm water is used when
filling.
