## Long description

The Kärcher SE 3-18 Compact carpet cleaning machine provides fibre-deep cleaning of textile surfaces with the convenience of cordless operation when used with an 18 V Kärcher Battery Power battery (battery not included). Its compact and lightweight design (3.6 kg) and 1.9 m hose make it suitable for cleaning vehicle interiors, upholstery, small rugs and other fabric-covered surfaces with thorough, residue-free extraction. A hygienic flush function cleans the device and hose after use to reduce bacteria and odours.
Advantages
The SE 3-18 Compact combines deep fibre extraction performance similar to corded spray-extraction cleaners with the portability of battery operation. Its long, flexible suction hose includes an internal cleaning-agent feed for convenient access to hard-to-reach areas. The machine’s compact dimensions and low weight simplify handling and storage, while the hygienic flush function helps maintain device cleanliness and prevents odour and bacterial build-up.
