NOTE:
using the iron, it is advisable to ad-
just the steam jet at medium output, or to
do some testing in order to find the jet
which is most suitable to the fabric to be
ironed.
RECOMMENDED TECHNIQUE
for
steam ironing with the Polti iron is to AP-
PLY steam (button R) on the upstroke,
then release button R (so no steam) for
the backstroke, thus reclosing the fibres,
preventing oversteaming and wetness.
DRY IRONING
• If you need to DRY iron (ONLY) (NOT
steam ironing), press the accessory on/off
switch (
C
) and adjust the temperature of
the iron by setting the dial (
S
) to the tem-
perature required for the fabric (as shown
on the dial).
ATTENTION:
when dry ironing, be careful
not to press the steam request button (
R
),
as hot water could come out of the iron onto
your garment and board.

• Do not leave the iron unattended whilst
connected to the mains.
• Iron only on heat resistant surfaces and on
surfaces that allow the steam to escape
e.g.
MESH
ironing boards.
•
ATTENTION:
if you iron sitting down, do
not place your legs under the ironing board,
the steam can cause burns.

WARNINGS
• DO NOT USE ON leather, wood or delicate
fabrics especially dralon, velvet and other
pile surfaces.
• For cleaning leather, wood or delicate fab-
rics especially dralon, velvet and other pile
surfaces, consult the manufacturers in-
structions. Clean only by using the hand
gun at a safe distance together with a soft
cloth and always do a test on a non visible
part of the item first or on a sample.
Allow the test area to dry completely before
observing results and effects on surface or
colour before proceeding to clean further
areas.
• For cleaning wood surfaces (furniture,
doors etc.) take great care as a too long ap-
plication of the steam could alter the waxed
appearance, the shine or the colour of the
surfaces cleaned. We therefore recom-
mend you to apply the steam on such sur-
faces only for brief periods or to clean these
surfaces using a cloth first held in the
steam.
• Please pay particular attention while clean-
ing brick floors: a too long application of
steam could damage wax, brightness or
colour of these surfaces.
• For delicate surfaces (e.g. synthetic materi-
als, lacquered surfaces etc.) we recom-
mend that the small brush should always
be covered with at least two cloths to re-
duce the intensity of the steam, and (on
machines with steam variation control) with
the steam set at low level. Always test first
on a non-visible area, allow to dry thor-
oughly, and if successful, make sure to use
exactly the same tool, technique, steam
level and steam jet distance.
• If cleaning glass surfaces in particularly low
temperatures preheat the glass using the
hand gun from about 50 centimetres dis-
tance from the surface to be cleaned.
• For care of your plants vaporise at a mini-
mum distance of 50 centimetres.
STEAM GUN (2)
The steam gun can be used directly on all
spots requiring a stronger, closer treatment
without connecting the brushes. The more re-
sistant the stain, the closer you should hold
the gun, the steam pressure and temperature
being higher at the source. Always wipe with
a dry cloth (or a slightly abrasive sponge if the
spot is a difficult one to remove) after using
the gun. Steam gun is particularly efficient at:
• breaking down rug and carpet stains before
they are treated with the large brush;
• cleaning stainless steel surfaces, panes,
mirrors, enamelled surfaces;
• cleaning hard-to-reach corners, such as
