INFORMATION FOR USERS
Pursuant to European Directive 2012/19/EU,
regarding electric and electronic appliances,
this appliance must not be disposed of with
domestic waste, but sent to an official collec-
tion facility. This appliance complies with EU
Directive 2011/65/EU
The crossed-out bin symbol on the
appliance indicates that, at the end
of its useful lifespan, the product
must be disposed of separately from
other waste. Therefore, at the end of its life,
the user must handover the appliance to an
appropriate collection centre for electric and
electronic waste. Proper separate waste col-
lection to facilitate the subsequent recycling,
treatment and environmentally compatible
disposal of the appliance helps to prevent ne-
gative effects on the environment and human
health, and promotes recycling of the mate-
rials the product is made of. Unlawful disposal
by the owner involves the application of the
administrative sanctions envisaged by current
legislation.
WHICH WATER TO USE IN THE
BOILER
This appliance has been designed to function
with normal medium tap water between 8°F
and 20°F. If the tap water contains a lot of li-
mescale use a mix composed of 50% tap wa-
ter and 50% demineralised water which is wi-
dely available to purchase. Do not use pure
demineralised water.
Warning: check the hardness of the water at
the technical office at your local council or
the local water supplier.
If you only use tap water, you can reduce the
formation of limescale by using the special
Kalstop FP2003 limescale product, distribu-
ted by Polti, and available for sale at all major
domestic-appliance stores or online at
www.polti.com.
Never use distilled water, rain water or water
containing additives (e.g. starch, perfumes),
or water produced by other domestic ap-
pliances, by water softeners or filter jugs.
Do not use chemical substances or deter-
gents.
1. PREPARATION FOR USE
1.1 Place the boiler on a firm, flat and heat-resi-
stant surface.
1.2 Open the lid to fill the tank. Fill the water
tank with water up to the MAX level marked
on the water tank (1).
Thanks to the continuous refill system you do
not need to stop the ironing and wait for the ap-
pliance to cool down because the tank can be
filled as needed.
1.3 Close the cap again and reinsert the water
tank until you hear the hook click.
1.4 Connect the cable plug to an earthed
power supply of the correct voltage (3).
1.5 Press the ON/OFF switch (placed on the
side of the appliance) (4), the ON indicator li-
ght, pressure indicator light (5) and iron hea-
ting indicator light (6) will come on.

MENT

check the symbols on its label, for the instruc-
tions provided by the manufacturer.

The sound emitted on switching on your ap-
pliance and periodically during use, is due to
the water refilling system and is quite normal.
You can detach the water tank from the unit.
