Working with detergent
Please use exclusively KÄRCHER deter- gents and care products to carry out the re- spective cleaning task, as these were specifically developed for your appliance. The use of other detergents and care prod- ucts may lead to premature wear and can invalidate your warranty claims. Please ob- tain information at your local dealer or re- quest information directly from KÄRCHER. Notes regarding the detergent: The most commonly use detergents can be pur- chased ready to use in their detergent res- ervoirs with locking lids. This will make the pesky refilling and filling processes redun- dant.
