VAPORELLA FOREVER CLEAN

Do not put any detergent or chemical sub-
stance in the tank. Water by its nature con-
tains magnesium, mineral salts and other de-
posits 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 hard water ar-
eas we recommend the use of KALSTOP, a
special natural-base decalcifier which inhibits
and breaks down limescale, making it easy to
remove just by swilling out the tank with a little
tapwater. This is a preventive against lime
scale build-up and protects the metal walls of
the steam generator tank. KALSTOP is avail-
able from Polti dealers or by mail-order from
your Polti Service Centre.
If you iron sitting down, do not place your legs
under the ironing board, the steam can cause
burns.
Iron only on heat resistant surfaces and on
surfaces that allow the steam to escape e.g.
MESH ironing boards.
For iron rest mat replacement use only origi-
nal spare parts.
The iron must be used and rested on a stable
surface.
When placing the iron on its stand, ensure that
the surface on which the stand is placed is sta-
ble.

1a. Open the roller shutter cover (13) by moving
it downwards as shown (fig. 1).
2a. Fit the flex holder (12) to the appliance.
Place the combined flex (8) into the support
(fig. 2).
3a. Pull the tank cap (1) upwards and fill the
tank with about 1 litre of water, making sure
that it does not overflow (fig.3).
Normal tapwater can be used. However, as
hard water by its nature contains limestone,
which may cause a build-up of limescale in
the tank, in hard water areas we recommend
the use of our natural-base decalcifier KAL-
STOP, available from Polti dealers or by mail
order from your Polti Service Centre.
Never place your hands
inside the jet of steam.
Danger of burns!
Do not direct the steam jet at
people, animals or debris.
Danger of burns!
