MACHINE OPERATION
1ST STEP: LOWER DRUM FILLING
• Unhook the closing devices (fig.1);
• Lift the upper cover (fig.2);
• Fill the lower drum with about 2 litres of clean water (fig.3)
• Reposition the cover by paying attention to the drum level
indicator. It must be is in the front part (fig.4)
IMPORTANT:
to avoid motor damages during the
suction check that the liquid contained in the drum
does not exceed the level indicated on the drum
itself
(MAX) (fig.4) otherwise we recommend
emptying the drum.
2ND STEP: WATER TANK FILLING
• Remove the plug (fig.5);
• Fill the tank with water by using the suitable bottle supplied
(fig.6) and by respecting the maximum capacity of the tank
(any excessive water will be automatically discharged in the
lower drum).
• Put the plug again.
NOTE: USE ONLY THE BOTTLE SUPPLIED AND AVOID USING ANY
OTHER OBJECT SUCH AS GLASSES AND FUNNELS TO FILL THE
TANK. IT MAY BE OVERFILLED. DO NOT USE DISTILLED WATER.
WARNING: Fill the lower drum only with water.

pressure. The steam must be adjusted by means of the
knob (fig.7
) according to the surface to be treated.
The temperature remains displayed on the display. Once the
other functions are selected, the display shows them about
5 seconds.
NOTES: when pilot light “f” signalling that the water is finished
is on, the flashing writing “H2o” appears on the display and in

5TH STEP: ACCESSORY STARTING
• All the accessories carry out the double function of suction
and steam. They fit in directly on the handle or on the
extensions.
• Move the ring nut to open position and keep it open (fig.9).
• Fit in the extension hose or the accessory (fig.10).
• Move the ring nut to close position. Release the spring wheel
for the hose extension.
• Press the button located on the start handle once and then
once again to stop suction (fig.11).
• To regulate the suction motor power, keep the button
pressed down during use (fig.11); every 4 seconds the power
will increase until it reaches maximum power (lev. 5) and
then it will restart from the minimum power (lev. 3). Once it
has reached the desired power, take pressure off the button;
the chosen power will be memorised.
• Keep the button under the handle pressed for steam and
then take pressure off it to stop (fig.12).
WARNING: DO NOT USE STEAM ON ELECTRIC
FIXTURES WHICH ARE ON OR ENERGIZED!

4. 150 MM. NOZZLE
It is a brush on which the following fittings can be assembled:
4A. WINDOW CLEANER FITTING
Ideal to clean “English” windows. For a correct use we
recommend warming the accessory by keeping the steam push
button pressed for some seconds and steaming in the air. Then
proceed with the cleaning.
It is possible to steam and suck at the same time or separately.
We recommend using the window cleaner from the top to the
bottom by keeping it well pushed on the window.

5B. 80 mm nozzle
5C. Lance
Particularly recommended to clean shower boxes, grills, fly
screens and the spaces between the tiles etc. Ideal also for the
defrosting of freezers or refrigerators.
6. EXTENSIONS
Essential to clean floors, washable walls or high windows. They
can be used combined with any other accessory.
7. BOTTLE TO FILL THE TANK

COMPONENTS OF FILTER AND SEPARATOR
A. Molecular separator.
B. Knurled screw.
C. Filter.
D. Motor support.
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
MOTOR SUPPORT (D)
It is located under the upper cover. For the cleaning at first we
recommend disconnecting the device. Use only a wet cloth. Do not
use direct water jets (i.e.: shower, tap, etc.).
THE MACHINE CAN BE TIPPED TO ONE SIDE ONLY FOR
THIS FUNCTION (DO NOT OVERTURN THE MACHINE
FOR ANY REASON!)
FILTER AND SEPARATOR
Once the filter is removed, you can see the “molecular separator”
(A). Both the filter and the separator must be washed separately
with water. To remove them, contact an authorised service centre.
NOTE FOR THE TECHNICIAN AT THE SERVICE CENTRE:
To remove filter (C) remove the safety screw by turning it until it
comes away. To remove separator (a) unscrew knurled screw (B) and
remove from the housing. Be careful on re-inserting it as it has a set
housing. Screw the knurled screw clockwise without tightening it
too much. Do not use the machine if the plastic filter is not inserted
or if it is without the “molecular separator”.
SPONGE FILTER
The filter cover (A) is located in the rear part of the machine and can
be removed by sliding it upwards.
Once the filter cover has been removed, you can reach the silencer
filter (B) which is located in the motor air outlet (C). We recommend
cleaning it periodically by washing it with water.

7. ACQUA CLEAN
ANTIBACTERIAL EFFICACY TESTED AT 99,999%. Thanks to natural
active principles with an effective “antiseptic and sanitizing” action,
it prevents bacteria from forming removing bad smell caused by
water impurities.
When it is diffused in the air during the machine use, it “cleans” the
air effectively removing bad smell in the house as smoke, kitchen
smell, dust, etc. Put some drops (at leat 1 cap) together with water
in the lower drum of the machine.
