• Unscrew the self-refilling tank cap (

7

) (Fig.1)

and fill the tank with about 560 cc of water by
using the filler bottle (

U

) supplied.

• Water by its nature contains magnesium,

mineral salts and other deposits which in
hard water areas can contribute to limescale
build up in the tank. To avoid these problems,
it is necessary to swill out with tapwater and
empty the generator tank after every 3 or 4
uses.In very hard water areas we recom-
mend the use of our KALSTOP FP 2003, a
special natural-base decalcifier which inhibits
and breaks down limescale. This is a  pre-
ventive against limescale build-up and pro-
tects the metal walls of the steam generator
tank. KALSTOP is available from Polti deal-
ers or by mail-order from your Polti Service
Centre.
Do not use demineralised water alone, but
mix it with tap water as described above. 

We recommend only using original Polti
products as other products may not be
suitable for use with Polti appliances and
may cause serious damage.
Never use distilled water or scented wa-
ter.

• Carefully screw on the sealing cap (

7

) to

hand tight.

• Lift the dirt container handle (

22

) unhooking

it from its position (Fig. 2) and remove the
container (

20

) (Fig. 3).

• Turn the dirt container handle (

22

) as shown

in figure 4, and remove the “Eco ActiveFilter”
water filter assembly (

23

).

• Fill the dirt container (

20

) with about 1.2 litres

of simple tap water until the MAX level indi-
cator (

21

) is reached, as in fig. 5.

• Put the filter assembly (

23

) back into place in

the dirt container (

20

) returning it to its initial

position.

• Replace the dirt container, following the re-

verse steps you used to remove it.

• Support the handle (

22

) until it hooks into

place on the dirt container (

20

).
