lescents or other persons unfit to operate it (for example, while
drunk).
3. Keep people away from the appliance while it is working.
4. Do not use the appliance in the rain.
5. Do not obstruct ventilation and heat dispersal apertures or
slits.
6. If the appliance breaks down or malfunctions, turn it off. Do
not attempt to repair it. Contact our technical service centre.
7. Do not use the steam generator if the power cable is dam-
aged. To replace it, contact our technical service centre only.

10. Use water with a hardness of between 5° and 15° TH.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR USE
Cleaning fabric.
Before treating fabric with the steam generator, always check
its resistance to steam on a part not in view.
Test by steaming the surface intensely and then leaving to dry.
Make sure the form and colour of the fabric are not affected.
Cleaning coated or painted surfaces.
Never aim the steam at glued edges as the strips may become
detached. Do not use the appliance on unsealed wooden or
parquet floors.
Take care when cleaning kitchen or domestic furniture, doors,
parquet, painted surfaces or surfaces coated with synthetic
products.
If prolonged use is made of steam, wax, French polish, synthetic
coatings or paint may become detached, deteriorate or be
marked. You are recommended to clean these surfaces with
a steamed cloth only, or steam them briefly using a double
layer of cloth.
Cleaning glazed surfaces.
To avoid damaging frame seals, avoid aiming the flow of steam
directly towards the sealed points of the glazed surfaces.
When outside temperatures are low, particularly during winter,
heat the surface of the glass by lightly steaming the entire
surface before cleaning. This compensates for the difference
Assembling parts supplied separately
All main parts and safety devices are assembled by the
manufacturer. Some other secondary parts may be supplied
separately.
These parts must be assembled by the user following the as-
sembly instructions.
Identification plate:
When purchasing the product, make sure it has an identification
plate. If this is missing, notify the manufacturer and/or dealer
immediately.
Use of an appliance without an identification plate absolves the
manufacturer from all liability. Products without an identifica-
tion plate should be considered as anonymous and potentially
dangerous.
The main technical characteristics of the steam generator are
given on a plate applied to the front of the appliance (fig. 1).
The user must ensure that the rooms where the steam generator
is to be used comply with all safety standards and regulations
regarding:
• efficient electrical installations;
• the absence of explosive, inflammable, toxic or corrosive
substances.
Use of the appliance in particular conditions requiring use of
class II appliances only is not recommended.
Filling the tanks.
Fill the “cleaning solution” tank (fig. 2) with cleaning product
diluted according to the instructions given on the bottle.
IMPORTANT: Use only liquid cleaning products.
Under no circumstances must highly acid, alkaline or
oxidising products be used.
Ask your dealer for a catalogue of possible cleaning prod-
ucts to be used according to the type of washing to be
carried out or surface to be treated.
IMPORTANT: always fill the water tank with clean water (fig. 3)
with a hardness of between 5° and 15° TH.
Never fill the water tank with detergent solution as this
would cause irreparable damage to the steam generator.
Connecting the injection tube.
Insert the connection into the outlet in the front of the machine
and be sure that the right hooks have been properly placed
(Fig. 4).
Electrical connections.
The steam generator should be connected to the mains in ac-
cordance with current legislation.
Make sure the mains voltage corresponds to the voltage
required by the appliance and indicated on the ratings plate
(fig. 1).
Protect the electric cable from accidental crushing.
Failure to respect the above conditions absolves the
manufacturer from all liability and represents negligent
use of the product.
