Full details

The Kärcher K2 Premium Full Control is designed for homeowners who need a versatile, lightweight cleaning solution for vehicle maintenance and small outdoor areas. Its standout feature is the Full Control system, which allows users to easily adjust pressure settings via the lance to suit different surfaces; however, it is best suited for light-to-medium duty tasks and is not intended for heavy-duty commercial cleaning or extremely stubborn, long-term grime.

FAQs

Can I use hot water with this pressure washer?

No, this machine is designed for use with cold water only. Using hot water can damage the pump seals.

How do I switch between pressure settings?

Rotate the spray lance to cycle through the icons displayed on the lance, which correspond to different intensity levels.

Does this model come with a warranty?

Yes, please refer to the documentation included in your specific packaging for local warranty terms and registration steps.

Is the T 150 attachment safe for all patio types?

It is generally safe for stone and brick, but use caution on soft wooden decking or older, loose mortar, starting on a low-pressure setting.

What is the best way to store the unit?

Drain all water from the hoses and pump, store in a dry, frost-free location, and keep the cable neatly wrapped.

Troubleshooting

Machine fails to build up pressure

Check the water inlet for blockages and ensure the garden hose is fully opened and supplying enough flow.

Unit stops working during use

The thermal overload switch may have triggered. Turn the unit off, allow it to cool for 15 minutes, and ensure the power source is active.

Detergent not being drawn

Ensure the detergent suction hose is not kinked and the lance is set to the 'Mix' or low-pressure setting.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Intuitive pressure control system with clear visual feedback
  • Comprehensive accessory package for both cars and patios
  • Compact and lightweight for easy storage
  • Built-in detergent tank simplifies the cleaning process

Cons

  • Not suitable for heavy-duty industrial or professional use
  • Limited power compared to higher-end Kärcher series models
  • May require more time for very large driveway areas

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your unit, connect the high-pressure hose to the spray gun and the main machine unit until you hear a secure click. Attach your chosen lance or accessory by pressing it into the spray gun and twisting 90 degrees. Always ensure the water supply is turned on before switching the machine to the 'I' position to prevent dry running, which can damage the pump.

After use, flush the system by running clear water through the detergent hose if a cleaning agent was used. Store the machine in a frost-free area, as freezing temperatures can crack the internal pump housing. Regularly inspect the water inlet filter for debris to maintain optimal pressure.
