Refilling Water
In case of water shortage, the indicator
lamp "water shortage" glows red in the wa-
ter reservoir and a signal can be heard.
 Fill the water reservoir up to the "MAX"
marking.
Notes
 Every time there is not enough water in
the steam boiler, the pump automatical-
ly supplies water from the water reser-
voir into the steam boiler. If the water
reservoir is empty, the water pump is
not able to fill the steam boiler and the
steam tapping is blocked.
 The water pump tries to fill the steam
boiler in short intervals. If the filling pro-
cess is successful, the red indicator
lamp goes off.

Use the selector switch for the steam vol-
ume to regulate the discharged steam. The
selector switch has three positions:

Reduced steam volume
No steam - child protection
Note:
In this lever position, the steam lever
cannot be used.

steam volume.
 While operating the steam switch, al-
ways direct the steam gun at a separate
piece of cloth until the steam is emitted
evenly.
