Troubleshooting

Pressure washer does not start

Check that the power cord is securely plugged into a functioning electrical outlet. Ensure the water supply is turned on and the hose is properly connected.

Low pressure or inconsistent spray

Clean the integrated water filter. Check the Vario Power lance setting – ensure it is not set to the lowest pressure. Verify the garden hose connection for leaks and ensure adequate water flow from the supply.

Detergent is not being drawn

Ensure the suction hose for detergent is correctly submerged in the detergent container. Check that the Vario Power lance is set to the detergent mode (usually indicated by a symbol).

Leaking from connections

Ensure all hose connections (garden hose, high-pressure hose) are securely tightened. Check O-rings and seals for damage and replace if necessary.
