RISKS CONNECTED TO THE POWER SUPPLY - ELECTROCUTION

• The earthing system and highly sensitive residual-current circuit breaker, complete with magnetothermic cut-out for your domestic system, guarantee safe use of electrical appliances.
  Therefore, for your own safety, check that the electrical system to which the appliance is connected complies with current laws.
• Do not connect the appliance to the mains if the voltage does not correspond with that of the domestic electrical circuit in use.

• Do not overload sockets with adaptors and/or transformers. Only connect the product to a single socket with current that is compatible with the supplied plug.

• Do not use electrical extension leads that are unsuitable for the power rating or which are not compliant with the law. They may overheat and possibly lead to short circuiting, fire, power outage or damage to the equipment. Only use extension leads which are certified, suitable for the power rating, supporting 16A and earthed.

• Always turn the appliance off at the ON/OFF switch before unplugging it.

- To remove the plug from the socket, do not pull the power cable, but hold the plug itself to avoid damage to the plug and the cable.

- Fully unwind the cable from the cable winder before connecting the appliance to the mains and before use. Always use the product with the cable completely unwound.

- Do not pull or jerk the cable or expose it to stresses (twisting, crushing or stretching). Keep the cable away from hot and/or sharp surfaces and elements. Avoid crushing the cables in doors and windows. Do not pull the cable tightly around corners. Avoid treading on the cable. Do not wind the power cable around the appliance, especially if the appliance is hot. Do not place the appliance on top of the power cable, this can be dangerous.

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 collection 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 hand over the appliance to an appropriate collection centre for electric and electronic waste or, according to the legislation in force in the country, leave the used appliance with the distributor when buying a new product to replace it. Proper separate waste collection to facilitate the subsequent recycling, treatment and environmentally compatible disposal of the appliance helps to prevent negative effects on the environment and human health, and promotes recycling of the materials the product is made of. Unlawful disposal by the owner may result in the sanctions envisaged by current legislation.

WHICH WATER TO USE IN THE BOILER

This appliance has been designed to function with normal tap water between 8^ f and 20^ f. If the tap water contains a lot of limescale use a mix composed of 50% tap water and 50% demineralised water which is widely 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 (PAEU0094) anti-limescale product, distributed by Polti, and available for sale at all major domestic-appliance stores and 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 appliances, by water softeners or filter jugs. Do not add chemical, natural, detergent, or limescale removing substances, etc.

1. PREPARATION FOR USE

1.1 Open the tank closing cap (1) and fill the tank with about 1l of water, making sure that it does not overflow.

This operation must always be carried out when the boiler has cooled and with the power cable disconnected from the mains. Thanks to the continuous refill system you do not need to stop the ironing and wait for the appliance to cool down because the tank can be filled as needed.

1.2 Replace the tank closing cap.

1.3 Only for the Pro90_Turbo modelopen the door of the built-in socket and insert the built-in plug of the steam hose (2), pressing the specific button and making sure that the hooking pin is inserted perfectly in the specific locking hole on the socket.

1.4 Connect the cable plug to an earthed power supply of the correct voltage (3).

Completely unwind the power cable before plugging it into the mains and before use, and always use the appliance with the power cable completely unwound.

1.5 Press the boiler switch (9)(4) which will light up together with the "steam ready" indicator light (9).

1.6 Wait for the "ready steam" indicator light (①) to turn off. The appliance is ready for use.
