KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS
• Read these instructions for use carefully before using the appliance.
• Any use which does not comply with these instructions will invalidate the
warranty.
• The wiring system to which the appliance is connected must always com-
ply with the laws in force.
• Before connecting the appliance, make sure that the mains voltage is the
same as the voltage indicated on the data label of the appliance and that
the power outlet is connected to earth.
• Always turn off the appliance at the on/off switch before unplugging it.
• If the appliance is left unused, always disconnect it from the mains. Never
leave the appliance unattended with the cable plugged into the mains.
• Always make sure the appliance is unplugged before performing mainte-
nance work of any kind.
• Do not pull the power cord out of the socket, but grasp the plug itself to
avoid damage to the socket.
• Do not allow the power cord to be twisted, crushed, stretched, or come into
contact with sharp or hot surfaces.
• Do not use the appliance if the power cable or other important parts are
damaged.
• Do not use electric extension leads that are not authorized by the manu-
facturer, as they may cause damage or fire.
• If it is necessary to replace the power supply cable, please refer to the nea-
rest Polti authorised service centre, since the use of a special tool is neces-
sary.
• Never touch the appliance with wet hands or feet with the cable plugged
into the mains.
• Do not use the appliance when barefoot.
• Do not use the appliance near a bathtub, shower or container full of water.
• Never immerse the appliance, the cable or the plugs in water or another
liquid.
• Use of the appliance in places where there is a danger of explosions is pro-
hibited.
• Do not use the product with toxic substances.
• Do not lay the hot appliance on surfaces sensitive to heat.
• Do not leave the appliance exposed to wind or rain.
• Do not place the appliance near a live element, an electric stove or any
other source of heat.
• Do not expose the appliance to extreme temperatures.
• Never let children or people who are not familiar with how the appliance
works use it.
• Do not press the buttons hard or with a pointed object such as a pen.
• Always rest the appliance on a stable surface.
• In case of accidental fall of the appliance it is necessary to have it checked
by an authorized Service Centre as the internal safety features may have
been affected.
• In case of breakdown or malfunction switch off the appliance and never
attempt to disassemble it, but refer to an authorized Service Centre.
• In order to avoid prejudicing the safety of the appliance, use only original
spare parts and accessories approved by the manufacturer.
• Do not wind the power cord around the appliance, especially when the
appliance is still hot.

• Do not direct the steam jet at people, animals or debris.
• Never place your hands inside the jet of steam.
• When refilling the boiler, use HOT rather than cold water, pour in gently at
first and keep your face away. Otherwise the still hot boiler walls can spit
drops of very hot water or steam spray.
• Do not put any detergent or chemical substance in the boiler.
• Make sure the patented safety cap is fully and correctly screwed on, other-
wise you may experience very hot steam escaping from around the cap.

1.
Unscrew the patented safety cap (
A
) (fig.1) and fill the boiler with not
more than 1.2 litres of water. You may use the jug (
10
) (fig.2).
2. Carefully screw on the safety cap to hand tight. Make sure the patented
safety cap (
A
) is fully and correctly screwed on, otherwise you may
experience very hot steam escaping from around the cap.
3. Connect the power supply cable (
F
) into an earthed power supply of the
correct voltage.

1a. Press down the generator on/off switch (
B
); the function indicator light
(
C
) lights up.
2a.
Wait for the steam pressure indicator (E) light up (about 10 minu-
tes). EASY STEAM is now ready for use.
3a. The steam gun (
2
) is equipped with a safety switch (
3
) which when
engaged prevents the accidental start of the steam jet by children or
people who do not know how to operate the appliance. With the switch
(
3
) in the “OFF” position, the lever controlling the steam jet is locked.
Should the hose be left unattended for a moment whilst the appliance is
connected to the mains, put the safety switch in the “OFF” position. To
start the steam jet, move the switch (
3
) backwards (ON) and activate the
steam request lever (
4
) (Fig. 3).
The first jet of steam may contain some water droplets, due to imperfect ther-
mic stabilisation inside the flexible hose. We would therefore advise that the
first jet of steam is played onto an old cloth until a constant steam flow is
obtained.
Note: The steam pressure indicator (E) may go on and off from time to
time during use of EASY STEAM, this is quite normal
WARNING:
If you press the steam request lever (
4
) when the appliance is
still under pressure, even if it is off and not connected to the wiring system,
you may still experience steam escaping from the flexible hose. So when
you switch off the appliance, before storing it, we advise to press the lever
(
4
) till the steam flow is exhausted.
ATTENTION
:
Danger of burns!
Read these instructions carefully
before using the appliance.
