ENGLISH TIPS FOR BETTER UNIT PERFORMANCE - For cleaning leather, wood or delicate fabrics especially dralon, velvet and other pile surfaces, consult the manufacturers instructions. Clean only by using the hand gun at a safe distance together with a soft cloth and always do a test on a non visible part of the item first or on a sample. Allow the test area to dry completely before observing results and effects on surface or colour before proceeding to clean further areas, ensuring that exactly the same distance and technique are applied as for the test area. - For cleaning wood surfaces (furniture, doors, etc. ) take great care as too long an application of the steam could alter the waxed appearance, the shine or the colour of the surfaces cleaned. We therefore recommend you apply the steam on such surfaces only for brief periods or to clean these surfaces using a cloth first held in the steam. synthetic materials, lacquered surfaces etc. ) we recommend that the small brush should always be covered with a cloth (15). - If cleaning glass surfaces in particularly low temperatures preheat the glass using the hand gun (R) from about 50 centimetres distance from the surface to be cleaned. - For the care of your plants vaporise at a minimum distance of 50 centimetres. STEAM GUN (R) The steam gun can be used directly on all spots requiring a stronger, closer treatment without connecting the brushes. Its use will ensure total hygiene, revive colours and restore the original brilliance of the pile. The treatment can be repeated as frequently as you wish, with no damage whatsoever. Then, fold a cotton cloth over 2 or 3 times (according to the resistance of the pile) and fasten it with the clips (4) onto the brush. [. . . ] Drying occurs practically at once.

C A R E O F Y O U R M O N D I A LVA P 3 0 0 0 Before attempting any maintenance operation, be sure to always disconnect the appliance from the mains. We recommend that the bristles of the brushes are allowed to cool down in their normal position after use, so as to avoid any mis-shaping. Check periodically the condition of the rubber washer connections on the extension tubes (2) and on the steam gun (R). If necessary, replace the washers with the exchange washers (8) supplied with your Mondialvap 3000. [. . . ]
