Remove loose dirt with a dry vacuum before wet cleaning – the SE 3 Compact is not a dry vacuum cleaner. Test the surface for colour fastness and water resistance in an inconspicuous area. Fill the fresh-water tank only to the MAX mark (up to 1.7 L). Water or cleaning solution must not exceed 50 °C. Use Kärcher RM 519 or only the supplied detergent that is explicitly suitable for spray-extraction cleaners, following its package dosage exactly. Do not use foaming products or a chemical with unknown dosage. Spray moderately and pull the nozzle slowly towards you in overlapping strokes; do not over-wet the surface. After use, flush the system with clean water, empty and rinse the dirty-water tank (up to 2.9 L), and leave the parts open to dry. Return the machine clean, emptied and with all accessories at the agreed time.

Use a suitable spray-extraction detergent at the package dosage. The SE 3 Compact fresh-water tank holds up to 1.7 L; solution must not exceed 50 °C.
