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. [. . . ] The steam gun (2) is equipped with a safety switch (2A) which prevents the accidental start of the steam jet by children or people who do not knows how to operate the appliance. With the switch (2A) in the “OFF” position, the lever controlling the steam jet is locked (Fig. Should the hose be left unattended for a moment whilst the appliance is connected to the mains, it is recommended to put the safety switch in the “OFF” position. To start working, set the (2A) switch to the “ON” position and press the steam button (Fig. The first burst of steam may contain some water droplets, due to imperfect thermic stabilisation inside the flexible hose.

Note: The steam pressure indicator light (K) may go on and off from time to time during use of VAPORETTO. This indicates the machine maintains the correct and constant pressure and is quite normal. You can increase the steam flow by turning the control in an anti-clockwise direction. Turning it in a clockwise direction reduces the steam flow. Here are some suggestions for the choice of steam flow level: • Strong steam: for encrusted dirt, stains, sanitising, grease.

PATENTED SAFETY CAP / ’’WATER OUT’’ The appliance is equipped with a patented safety cap, which prevents opening of the generator tank as long as there is any pressure remaining inside.

[. . . ] Your glass will remain cleaner longer thanks to the absence of the film normally left behind by chemical cleaning products on which new dust and grease can attach themselves. Cleaning glass is done in two stages: • Spray the steam onto the surface to be cleaned to loosen the dirt (not touching with the blade). €¢ Pull the blade straight down the window surface from top to bottom without applying the steam, to take away the dirt. €¢ FOR EXTRA ABRASIVE ACTION AND MORE EFFECTIVE REMOVAL OF DIRT, WE RECOMMEND USING THE BRISTLES SUPPLIED WITH THE LARGE WINDOW CLEANING KIT To clean especially large glass surfaces, attach the window squeegee tool to the extension tubes.
