Dear Customer, Congratulations and thank you for purchasing this POLTI product, contributing to the conservation of our most precious natural resource: the Environment. VAPORETTO solves all cleaning and hygiene problems without the use of detergents - all that’s needed is just normal tap water which our system transforms into steam at a constant powerful pressure, allowing you to clean more thoroughly and in an ecological way. Our Technical Development team have added a range of sophisticated improvements to make cleaning tasks both safer and more effective: • The new handle is smaller, lighter, easier to handle and more comfortable to use because you can start producing steam with just one finger, by lightly pressing a button.

You can increase the steam flow by turning the control in an anti-clockwise direction. Here are some suggestions for the choice of steam flow level: • Strong steam: for encrusted dirt, stains, sanitising, grease.
