CORRECT USE OF THE PRODUCT
This appliance is designed for indoor domestic use for
vacuuming up liquids and dust, removing both dry and/or wet
materials (dirt) from surfaces with the use of steam as per the
descriptions and instructions given in this manual. Please read
these instructions carefully and keep them. If this manual is lost,
it can be consulted and/or downloaded from the website
www.polti.com.
Only vacuum domestic dirt and/or water.
Do not vacuum directly from containers full of water or other
liquids unless carrying out extraordinary cleaning operations
as detailed in Chapter 15. Only vacuum small quantities of water
spread over surfaces, respecting the maximum quantity
specified in these instructions for use.
Regularly check the level of fill of the dirt and water collector,
ensuring that the maximum levels are not exceeded (0.8l, MAX
level on water container).
Do not use on debris or chalk, cement or residues from building
sites or brick laying.
Do not use on earth and sand/soil, etc.
Do not use on ash, soot and combustion residues (fireplaces,
barbecues, etc.).
Do not use on printer, photocopier or fax toner and ink powder.
Do not vacuum pointed, sharp or stiff objects.
The steam power of the UNICO appliance gives optimum
results right from the first application. Avoid, therefore,
excessive rubbing of surfaces.
The appliance only functions correctly if the dirt collector is
inserted and complete with all its parts.
Do not lift the appliance with the telescopic tube and the brush
in the parking position.
Do not lift the product using the dirt collector grip.
Never leave the appliance exposed to weathering.
Correct use of the product is only as detailed in this instruction
manual. Any other use may damage the appliance and
invalidate the warranty.
INFORMATION FOR USERS
Pursuant to European Directive 2012/19/EU, regarding electric
and electronic appliances, this appliance must not be dispo-
sed of with domestic waste, but sent to an official collection
facility. This appliance complies with EU Directive 2011/65/EU
The crossed-out bin symbol on the appliance indica-
tes that, at the end of its useful lifespan, the product
must be disposed of separately from other waste.
Therefore, at the end of its life, the user must hando-
ver the appliance to an appropriate collection centre for elec-
tric and electronic waste. Proper separate waste collection to
facilitate the subsequent recycling, treatment and environ-
mentally compatible disposal of the appliance helps to pre-
vent negative effects on the environment and human health,
and promotes recycling of the materials the product is made
of. Unlawful disposal by the owner involves the application of
the administrative sanctions envisaged by current legislation.
WHICH WATER TO USE
This appliance has been designed to function with normal
medium-hardness tap water between 8°F and 20°F. If the tap
water contains a lot of calcium carbonate, do not use
demineralised pure water, but use a mix composed of 50% tap
water and 50% demineralised water available on the market.
Warning: check the hardness of the water at the technical
office at your local council or the local water supplier.
If you only use tap water, you can reduce the formation of
limescale by using the special Kalstop FP2003 decalcifying
product, distributed by Polti, and available for sale at all major
domestic-appliance stores or online at www.polti.com.
Never use distilled water, rain water or water containing
additives (e.g. starch, perfumes), or water produced by other
domestic appliances.
Do not use chemical substances or detergents.
