ble to change the suction power according
to the type of cleaning required, or to stop
suction immediately in case of accidental
suction (e.g. curtains). It is advisable to
work with the suction regulator open on
curtains, carpets, and sofas, etc. Move the
suction regulator forward until the hole on
the handle is visible. To return to maximum
power, move the suction regulator back-
ward, gradually covering the hole.
STEAM ONLY MODE

goes out. When it does, Lecoaspira is
ready to generate steam.
• You may now deliver steam by pressing
the steam button (

This appliance is equipped with a patented
safety cap, which prevents opening of the
boiler as long as there is any pressure re-
maining inside. This is an important and indi-
spensable safety device and it is necessary
to follow certain procedures when re-filling
the tank. When you have used up all the wa-
ter in the tank, preceed as follows:
• Switch off the machine at the boiler switch
(
2
).
• Disconnect the power supply cable (
13
)
from the mains.
• Unscrew the safety cap (
7
) anti-clockwise.
• Wait for a good few minutes to allow the
boiler to cool down.
• When the boiler is cool, proceed to care-
fully refill it as described in the paragraph
headed PREPARATION FOR USE.
WARNING:
When REfilling the boiler always
pour gradually into it only very small quanti-
ties at first of HOT, not cold water, so as to
avoid spitting. KEEP FACE AND EXPOSED
SKIN WELL AWAY FROM THE APERTURE.

You can optimise the steam flow by means
of the control knob (
8
) (Fig. 7).
To obtain a higher flow rate turn the knob in
a clockwise direction. When the knob is
turned in an anti-clockwise direction, the flow
rate decreases.
High flow rate of steam:
to remove caked
dirt, stains, grease and to sanitise;
Normal flow rate of steam:
for wall-to-wall
and loose carpeting, windows, floors;
