Function; Safety Instructions - Kärcher PC 100 M1 BIO Manual

Please dispose of used filter mats ac-
cording to the local regulations for
waste containing mineral oil.

Function

The detergent in the container is heat-
ed by the heating element and trans-
ported to the cleaning tools by the
pump. These can then be controlled
via the corresponding shut-off valves.
Solid dirt particles are held back by the
strainer in the rinsing floor or in the un-
derlying filter mat.
Grease and oily dirt is rinsed back into
the container and is then degraded into
carbon dioxide and water by the mi-
crobes.
The microbes are first caught in the fil-
ter mat and are then transported by the
liquid detergent into the container. The
liquid detergent must be heated in the
container so that the microbes can
function optimally.
