Safety Cap; Important; Recommendations For Cleaning Delicate Surfaces - POLTI EcoSteamVac DUAL Manual De Instrucciones

IMPORTANT: This appliance is equipped with a patented safety cap which prevents the boiler
tank being opened even accidentally, as long as there is minimum pressure inside. Therefore, to
be able to unscrew it, it is necessary to perform specific operations which are described below.
Every time the water is depleted, proceed as follows:
Always make sure that the appliance is unplugged before performing maintenance work of any
kind, including adding water or cleaning the appliance.
Do not unplug by pulling on the cord. Grasp the plug to avoid damaging the socket and risking
a short-circuit.
♦ Turn off the boiler switch (2).
♦ Discharge the remaining pressure by pressing the steam button (A5) on the handle.
♦ Unplug from the electric outlet.
♦ Unscrew the safety cap (7) counterclockwise.
IMPORTANT: Wait at least 10 minutes to allow the boiler tank to cool.
♦ Refill it proceeding as described in the "Filling the boiler tank" paragraph.
IMPORTANT: When filling the boiler tank when it is hot, we recommend adding small amounts
of water, as it might evaporate on contact with the hot boiler tank, causing a jet of steam.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR CLEANING
♦ For cleaning leather, wood or delicate fabrics, consult the manufacturer's instructions. Clean wi-
thout accessories at a safe distance together with a soft cloth and always do a test on a non visi-
ble part of the item first or on a sample. Allow the test area to dry completely before observing re-
sults and effects on surface or color before proceeding to clean further areas, making sure that
exactly the same distance and technique are applied as test area.
♦ Please pay careful attention when cleaning wooden surfaces (furniture, doors, etc.) and treated
terracotta flooring as prolonged use of steam may damage the wax, polish or color of the surfa-
ces to be cleaned. We recommend to set the steam rate at the minimum level (if your appliance
provides for steam regulation) and not direct the steam jet directly onto the surface but cover the
brush with a cloth. Otherwise, clean them using a previously steamed cloth.
♦ On particularly delicate surfaces (e.g. synthetic materials, lacquered surfaces, etc.) it is recom-
mended to always cover the brushes with a cloth and set the steam rate at the minimum level (if
your appliance provides for steam regulation).
♦ For the care of your plants, vaporize at a minimum distance of 1.6 ft (50 cm).
To clean glass surfaces in particularly cold seasons, preheat the windows starting from a distan-
ce of about 1.6 ft (50 cm) from the surface.
