VAPORELLA FOREVER CLEAN

4a. Put the tank cap (1) back in its place.

5a. Insert the removable supply cable plug (9)

into the built-in socket on the appliance

(fig.4). Plug the appliance into an earthed

power supply of the correct voltage (fig. 5).

IMPORTANT: always make sure that the

“continuous steam jet” button (10a) is not

switched on.

6a. Switch on the boiler and iron by pressing the

switches (2) and (3). The pressure indicator

light (5) will light up (fig. 6).

The sound emitted on switching on your appli-

ance and periodically during use, is due to the

water refilling system and is quite normal.

Check the manufacturer’s label on the garment,

and interpret the symbol on the label as follows:

STEAM IRONING

1b.For STEAM ironing, turn the dial (7) and set

the iron to its MAXIMUM travel on the “COT-

TON - LINEN” steam position (fig.7).

NB Set at its maximum, do NOT set

against the picture of iron on the dial (7).

Most fabric types, other than delicates can

be STEAM-ironed at this temperature,

please consult the garment label. If you want

to DRY iron, set the dial (7) to the required

temperature for the fabric as shown on the

dial.

Nb fabric indications on the dial are for

DRY ironing, for STEAM ironing set at

maximum travel as explained above.

2b. Wait for the pressure indicator light (5) to go

out (about 3 minutes). Push the button (10)

on the iron to release bursts of steam from

the holes on the soleplate. Release the but-

ton and the steam flow stops (fig.8).

NOTE: during initial operation of the iron, a

few drops of water mixed with steam may

come out of the soleplate until the tempera-

ture stabilises. It is advisable to direct the

first jets of steam onto an old cloth until a

uniform stable jet of steam is obtained.

RECOMMENDED TECHNIQUE for STEAM iro-

ning with Polti iron is to APPLY steam (button

10) on the upstroke, then release button (10) (so

no steam) for the backstroke, so reclosing the fi-

bres, preventing oversteaming and wetness.

3b. In order to have a continuous steam jet,

move the continuous steam jet button (10a)

forwards. Steam will keep on coming out,

even if you release the button. To stop the

steam flow, move the continuous steam jet

button (10a) backwards (fig. 9).

4b.By turning the steam flow control knob (6)

you can vary the quantity of steam according

to the type of textile to be ironed (more or

less delicate). You can use this control to in-

crease the steam flow by turning it anti-

clockwise. Turn the control in a clockwise di-

rection to reduce the steam flow (fig.10).

5b. The appliance is equipped with a rigid iron

rest mat (11) (fig.11) which can be removed

and put elsewhere if required.

DRY IRONING

If you need to DRY iron (ONLY) (NOT steam iro-

ning), press the iron switch (3) and adjust the

iron temperature by turning the dial (7) to the

temperature required for the fabric (as shown on

the dial).

NOTE:

• The steam pressure indicator (5) may go on

and off from time to time during use of Vapo-

rella. This indicates the machine maintaining

the correct and constant pressure and is quite

normal.

• If no steam is released from the iron, check

the following: the steam pressure indicator (5)

is off; there is water in the boiler; the steam
