ENGLISH PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING BEFORE USE · Before using your VAPORETTO carefully read these usage instructions. · Before connecting VAPORETTO to the mains make sure that the current is the same as that indicated for the machine and that the plug is an earthed plug. · Do not introduce any detergent or chemical substance into the generator tank. [. . . ] 6 ENGLISH PAT E N T E D S A F E T Y C A P / ' WAT E R O U T ' All POLTI machines are equipped with the unique Polti patented 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. According to model, `water out' is indicated by a warning light (J), or by an audible alarm signal from the machine, or on more basic models by the exhaustion of the steam output. Whenever you have used up all the water in the tank, follow the following procedures: 1c. Switch off the machine at the generator on/off switch (B) 2c. Press the steam request lever (3) on the hand 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. Disconnect the power supply cable (F) from the mains. Unscrew anti-clockwise the patented safety cap (A) 5c. Wait for a few minutes to allow the generator tank to cool down. When cool proceed to carefully refill the tank as described in paragraph 1 of the section "Preparation for Use" in the instructions. 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 whilst filling. USE OF THE PROFESSIONAL STRENGTH PRESSING IRON (normally sold separately) 1d. Connect the connector block at the end of the iron hose (4) to the generator as shown in point 2a of the section "Instruction for Use". For all steam ironing, position the temperature indicator dial (F) to the position "COTONE - LINO". For dry ironing set the temperature control dial according to the fabric to be ironed as indicated on the dial. Wait for a few minutes for the indicator (R) to go out indicating that the sole plate of the iron has reached the correct temperature. Press the steam request button on the iron (R) to allow the steam to exit. Releasing this button stops the steam flow. At first you may find that the steam contains some water globules and we recommend that the first jet of steam is therefore played onto an old cloth, and is not directed onto the garment to be ironed. For dry ironing do not press the steam request button (R). In order to have a continuous steam jet, move the button (U) forwards. Steam will keep on coming out, even if you release the button. To interrupt the outlet, move the button (U) backwards. [. . . ] - To clean especially large glass surfaces, attach the Window Squeegee Tool to the extension tubes. C A R E O F Y O U R VA P O R E T T O · Before attempting any maintenance operation, be sure to always disconnect the appliance from the mains · Normal tapwater can be used. 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 TP 2000. · Apply a little Vaseline to the cap thread every 4-5 months to prevent sticking. · We recommend that the bristles of the brushes are allowed to cool down in their normal position after use, so as to avoid any mis-shaping.
