the dirt, then attach cloth to brush to pick up the dirt . On difficult
corners or obstinate stains use the steam gun and then wipe the
treated surface with a cloth. On vertical washable surfaces, wal-
lpaper and ceilings, fasten a dry cloth on the brush and proceed
as for the floor. We advise to use a sponge cover (e.g. an old
bath towel)
Vaporetto is ideal for cleaning hygienically both synthetic and
wool rugs as well as for most types of carpet. Move the brush
towards your feet on the surface without the cloth to loosen the
dirt, then fasten a cotton cloth to the brush, fixing it on the clips
(
8A
), then wipe again the surface to pick up the dirt in the cloth.
Fold a cotton cloth over 2 or 3 times according to the length and
resistance of the pile. Move the brush rapidly on the pile without
applying any pressure, moving the brush to and fro and laterally
without concentrating for a long time in the same place. The tre-
atment can be repeated as frequently as you wish over time, as
drying very quickly on most surfaces. In case of particularly dirty
or full of detergents pile, do not insist for a long time; the results
will be evident after a number applications of Vaporetto over
time. Obstinate stains may require the direct use of the handgun
(from a distance of 5-10 cm) prior to the above indicated treat-
ment, then clean the stain with a cloth.
SMALL BRUSH (12)
To connect the small brush to the sheath or to the extension
tubes, it is necessary to connect first the adapter for small
accessories (5), after which the accessory can be fitted
directly onto the adapter.
The small brush is used whenever the big brush is too big or
impractical to be used.
The small brush can be used for:
• furnishing fabrics (after testing on invisible parts-see WAR-
NINGS above at start of “TIPS FOR BETTER UNIT PERFOR-
MANCE”. DO NOT USE ON DRALON, VELVET OR OTHER
SIMILAR PILE OR DELICATE SURFACES.
• small window surfaces
• tiles and other small surfaces
To clean wood (doorposts, floors etc) do not point the steam
directly but cover the big or small brush with a double-folded cot-
ton cloth.
For furniture cleaning direct the steam jet onto a dry cotton cloth,
and then clean with the cloth. The warm moisture on the cloth
traps the dust, spots and the static electricity so that the furnitu-
re stays clean longer as there is no detergent film for new dust
to stick to..
The following two accessories can be applied to the small brush:
12A – Cloth for small brush:
Fit the cloth over the small brush
and clean the surfaces to be treated.
12B – Window-cleaning tool for small brush:
Apply the tool to
the small brush (without the cloth (
12A
)) as shown in Figure 8.
Window-cleaning is carried out in two stages:
•
Deliver of steam onto the surface to be cleaned, by opera-
ting the steam delivery lever (
4
), to dissolve the dirt;
•
Pass the window-cleaning tool over the surface to remove
the dirt, without delivering any more steam.
LANCE (6)
To connect the lance to the sheath or to the extension tubes, the
adapter for connecting small accessories (
5
) must be fitted first,
after which the accessory can be connected directly to the adap-
ter. The lance can be used to direct the flow of steam towards
hidden corners that are difficult to reach with the steam sprayer.
It is ideal for cleaning radiators, door and window jambs, sanita-
ry fixtures and shutters. It is an extremely useful and indispensa-
ble accessory. The following accessories can be fitted to the
lance:
6A – Curved tip for lance:
suitable for reaching even more inac-
cessible points, thanks to its curved shape.
6B - Small round brush and 6C - Large round brush:
suitable
for removing caked dirt from very narrow surfaces such as coo-
ker burners, roller shutters, joints between tiles, sanitary fixtures,
etc. It is possible to choose the most suitable brush depending
on the size of the surface to be cleaned.
To connect accessories
6A-6B
or
6C
to the lance (
6
), simply fit
these accessories onto the tip of the lance exerting a slight pres-
sure (Fig.9).

One of the great advantages of this device is that it can be car-
ried anywhere, thanks to the handle (
H
) or the shoulder strap
(
13
).
WARNING:
Some HOT water may leak out of the accessories
mixed with the steam, especially when the tank has just been fil-
led, while carrying out the cleaning operations and as a conse-
quence of movement of the device.

• Before attempting any maintenance operation, make sure to
always disconnect the appliance from the mains
• We recommend that the bristles of the brushes are allowed to
cool down in their normal position after use, so as to avoid any
mis-shaping.
• To clean the body of the appliance, simply use a moist cloth.
