The small and larger brass brushes (28mm and 60mm diameter) are suitable for the kitchen and the bathroom, and have been specially designed to shift lime-scale deposits on taps and sinks. For ceramics always use the nylon brushes!
Small Nylon Brush (Black and Red)

The two small nylon brushes, which are coloured in red and black, are to be used on areas that need to be hygienically cleaned. They are suitable for lifting stubborn stains off easy-care materials. You can use it everywhere, where the steam is not enough. But caution is advised when cleaning delicate or soft surfaces!
You can also put stainless steel wool on the bigger nylon brush for cleaning burnt in stains on the hob or grill. The increased heat caused by the friction will help to lift dirt and stains more quickly.
Steam Lance (Black and Red)

One of your most important tools when cleaning with Thermostar is the steam lance. You can quickly and easily clean, disinfect or remove dust from the surfaces using the lance. Simply steam over them with the nozzle and then wipe with a microfibre cloth. With the steam lance, you can also clean hard-to-reach places without any problems.
The steam jet removes the dirt from the base due to the high pressure and the surfaces are cleaned pore-deep. Ensure not to use the highest steam level right away. It is better to get closest to the material because the pressure and temperature are much higher right at the nozzle.
The two different colours of this tool are meant to be used for better hygiene – for example, you can always clean the toilet with the red steam lance and you can use the black one in the kitchen.
Large Triangular Brush

Now we come to two accessories that will soon be indispensable for you: the rectangular and the triangular brush. These brushes have plastic bristles that can be used to scrub heavily dirty and insensitive surfaces, such as patio coverings. In the household, however, you will almost only use these brushes in conjunction with the respective steam buffers and microfiber cloths.
Place the steam buffer in the brush and spread a microfiber cloth over it. You attach it through the flaps on the back of the brush and you can easily clean your furniture and upholstered furniture, your floors or your windows. The steam collects and condenses in the steam buffer and the loosened dirt is caught in the microfiber cloth. The result is a slightly damp, gentle and pore-deep cleaning of all surfaces. It is not necessary to keep the steam button pressed constantly, otherwise too much moisture will be created. You should especially clean real wood surfaces and upholstered furniture with pulses of steam. If in doubt, please test the color fastness and suitability for cleaning with dry steam in a hidden area of your piece of furniture.
If one side of the microfiber cloth is already dirty, simply turn it over so you can cover more surface area with one cloth. Depending on your needs, the brushes can be locked using a lock on the bottom. You will quickly find out in which situation you prefer the square or the triangle brush.

Nylon brushes can be used wherever the steam wand alone is not enough. But be careful that the bristles can cause damage to soft surfaces!
The nylon brushes are available as a round version and as a small triangular brush, with which you can easily reach corners.

The steam suction cup is connected directly to the handle on your steam hose. With it, drains can be optimally cleaned, both using the steam function and using the hot water function.
However, always be careful not to burn yourself with hot water spray!
Extension Tubes

The two extension rods make cleaning easier. These can be used individually – for example for cleaning furniture fronts – or double – for floors or ceilings. You can connect any accessory to it, saving you the hassle of bending over or the hassle of using ladders.
Steam Scraper

A very practical accessory is the steam spatula. It can be placed directly on the steam wand and is ideal for defrosting your freezer, for example.
Steam Hose
There is also a handle on the steam hose that can hold and control the various tools.
The steam release switch is located on the underside of the handle. This is positioned so that it is easily accessible with the index finger and is therefore easy to press during operation. The blocking lever in front is for your safety. If this is activated, no more steam can escape. There are 2 switches on the top of the handle. The steam selector switch allows you to choose between 3 steam levels; you can also read the current setting using the steam release indicator lights on the Thermostar control panel.
When cleaning, start with a small step, especially with sensitive materials such as wood or silicone joints. For stubborn dirt, a higher steam level is recommended. Always remember that more steam means more moisture!
The second switch allows you to supply hot water directly from the device. This function is unique on the market and can be useful for various cleaning areas. But make sure that the water is very hot and never direct the jet at people or other living beings.
Bayonet Lance

You can access those pesky hard to reach places easier than ever with the bayonet lance. For example, you can now reach behind heaters or even the interiors of an engine. The soft insulation on the outside protects you from heat and the cleaned items from damage.
Horsehair Brushes
The two horsehair brushes are very soft and therefore even suitable for furniture or fittings, as well as sockets. They can also be used on very sensitive surfaces.
Thermostar Microfiber Cloths
The Thermostar Microfibre Cloths are especially absorbent, and incredibly adept at picking up dirt from surfaces, making them perfect for all cleaning. The cloths are highly resistant to tearing and enjoy a long service life. They are available in multiple different colours (white, blue, red, green, yellow) to suit your taste.
The cloths are particularly recommended for usage with the Thermostar Dry Steam Cleaner.
Thermostar Blue Window Cloths
This steam window cloth makes cleaning glass or mirror surfaces even easier! Using your Thermostar machine, you can steam over the surfaces from one side and simply pull off the excess liquid with the other side. By using the blue window cloth, you can get to those tricky corners and edges with ease.
