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 No Volt System - a unique Polti patent, designed so that there is no electricity to the on/off switch on the handle, making it absolutely safe even if the handle is accidentally brought into contact with liquids. [. . . ] Unscrew the patented safety cap (A) and fill the boiler with about 1, 3 litres of water using the filler funnel (14) making sure that it does not overflow (fig. However, as hard water by its nature contains limestone, which may cause a build-up of limescale in the tank, in hard water areas we recommend the use of our natural-base decalcifier KALSTOP, available from your Polti dealer or by mail order from your Polti service Centre. Make sure the patented safety cap (A) is fully and correctly screwed on, otherwise you may experience steam escaping from around the cap. Connect the power supply cable (F) into an earthed power supply of the correct voltage.

PAT E N T E D S A F E T Y C A P / '' WAT E R O U T '' The appliance is equipped with a safety cap, which prevents opening of the generator tank as long as there is any pressure remaining inside the tank. This is an important and indispensable safety device, and it is necessary to follow certain procedures when re-filling the tank. Whenever you have used up all the water in the tank, follow the following procedures: 1c. Press the steam request lever (3) on the steam gun (2) or, if using the iron, the steam request button (R) on the iron (Q) so as to fully exhaust the steam supply from the tank. When cool proceed to carefully refill the tank as described in paragraph 1 of the section "Preparation for Use". If refilling the generator when not completely cooled, we recommend that you carefully pour only very small quantities of water at each pouring into the tank, so as to avoid spitting from the tank and cover exposed skin and face whilst filling. Connect the connector assembly of the iron (4) to the generator as shown in point 2a of 38 the section "Instructions for Use". Check the manufacturer's label on the garment, and interpret the symbol on the label as follows: Steam ironing allowed--set the dial to its MAXIMUM travel at the end of the 3 dots symbol on your Polti iron Steam ironing allowed--set the dial to its MAXIMUM travel at the end of the THREE (nb THREE, not two) dots symbol on your Polti iron DRY IRON only, with iron dial set at one dot. NEVER CALL FOR STEAM BY PRESSING STEAM REQUEST BUTTON when DRY ironing. For STEAM ironing, turn the dial (S) and set the iron temperature to its maximum travel on the "COTTON-LINEN" steam position. NB YOU MUST SET AT ITS MAXIMUM POSITION, DO NOT SET AGAINST THE PICTURE OF THE IRON ON THE DIAL (S). Most types of fabric, other than delicates can be STEAM ironed at this temperature, please consult the garment manufacturer's instructions on the label. Wait for a few minutes until the "Iron heating" indicator light (V) goes out, to show that the soleplate of the iron has reached the required temperature. [. . . ] You should avoid lingering in the same place, as this may soak the area. The treatment can be repeated as frequently as you wish, with no damage whatsoever. Drying occurs practically at once. Particularly dirty rugs may need several treatments. Obstinate stains may require the use of the steam gun (at a distance of 5-10 cm) prior to treatment. [. . . ]
