use only original spare parts and accessories ap-
proved by the manufacturer.
• Do not wind the power cable around the ap-
pliance, especially when the appliance is still hot.
• During refilling with water, switch off and discon-
nect the appliance from the mains.
• It is necessary to keep the unit in horizontal posi-
tion during operation.
• Do not direct the steam jet onto electrical and/or
electronic appliances.
• Let the appliance cool down before cleaning it.
• Before storing the appliance make sure that it has
completely cooled down.
• This appliance is equipped with safety devices
which are to be replaced only by a suitably quali-
fied technician.
• Do not direct the steam jet at people, animals or
debris.
• Never place your hands inside the jet of steam.
• Do not put any detergent or chemical substance in
the boiler. Water by its nature contains magne-
sium, mineral salts and other deposits which in
hard water areas can contribute to limescale build
up in the boiler. To avoid these problems, it is ne-
cessary to swill out with tapwater and empty the
boiler after every 3 or 4 uses.In very hard water
areas we recommend the use of our KALSTOP, a
special natural-base decalcifier which inhibits and
breaks down limescale, making it easy to remove
just by swilling out the tank with a little tapwater.
This is a preventive against scale build-up and
protects the metal walls of the steam generator
tank. KALSTOP is available from Polti dealers or
by mail-order from your Polti Service Centre.
• We recommend you use original Polti pro-
ducts only, as products of other brands may
not be suitable for use in Polti products and
could cause damage.
• Never use distilled water or scented water.
• Make sure the safety cap is fully and correctly
screwed on, otherwise you may experience steam
escaping from the cap.
• Do not refill the boiler while it is still hot, let it cool
down for a few minutes before refilling.
• Do not empy the appliance when the water in the
boiler is still hot.
•
Do not open the safety cap while the appliance
is in use.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sen-
sory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience
and knowledge, unless they have been given su-
pervision or instruction concerning use of the ap-
pliance by a person responsible for their safety.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they
do not play with the appliance.
•
The appliance must not be used if it has fallen,
been dropped or when it has visible signs of da-
mage or leaks.
• The electric cable (Y type power cord) must not be
replaced by the user. The cord must always be re-
placed by a qualified technician from one of our
authorised service centres.
