Note: The floorcloth and the terry cloth cov-
er have been pre-washed and can be used
immediately for working with the steam
cleaner.

You can wash dirty floorcloths and terry
cloth covers in the washing machine at
60°C. Do not use a liquid softener as
this would affect the ability of the cloths
to pick up dirt. You may tumble dry the
cloths.
Often, failures have simple causes and you
can do the troubleshooting yourself using
the following overview. If you are in doubt
or if the failure is not listed here please con-
