4d. Press the steam request button on the iron (R) to allow the steam to exit. Releasing
this button stops the steam flow. At first you may find that the steam contains some
water globules and we recommend that the first jet of steam is therefore played onto
an old cloth, and is not directed onto the garment to be ironed.
For dry ironing do not press the steam request button (R).
5d. In order to have a continuous steam jet, move the button (U) forwards. Steam will keep
on coming out, even releasing the button. To interrupt the outlet, move the button (U)
backwards.
6d. The iron can also be used in a vertical position e.g. for removing creases from cur-
tain, clothing etc.
IMPORTANT
• Do not leave the iron unattended whilst connected to the mains.
• Iron only on heat resistant surfaces on and on surfaces that allow the steam to escape
e.g. mesh ironing boards.
• If you accidentally drop your iron, you should have it checked by an authorized Polti Ser-
vice Centre because some internal malfunctionings might have occured, limiting the
safety of the product.

• When cleaning electric ovens, refrigerators, or other electrical equipment, always dis-
connect the electrical item to be cleaned from the mains before cleaning. Allow to dry
before reconnecting.
• For cleaning leather, wood or delicate fabrics especially dralon, velvet and other pile
surfaces, consult the manufacturers instructions. Clean only by using the hand gun at
a safe distance together with a soft cloth and always do a test on a non visible part of
the item first or on a sample. Allow the test area to dry completely before observing
results and effects on surface or colour before proceeding to clean further areas, ensur-
ing that exactly the same distance and technique are applied as for the test area. If in
doubt, and on sensitive surfaces like fabrics, leather and wood it is always better to
ask advice from your Steam Cleaner dealer.
• For cleaning wood surfaces (furniture, doors etc.) take great care as too long an appli-
cation of the steam could alter the waxed appearance, the shine or the colour of the
surfaces cleaned. We therefore recommend you apply the steam on such surfaces only
for brief periods or to clean these surfaces using a cloth first held in the steam.
• Please pay particular attention while cleaning brick floors: a too long application of
steam could damage wax, brightness or colour of these surfaces.
• Delicate surfaces (e.g. synthetic materials, lacquered surfaces etc.) we recommend
that the small brush should always be covered with at least two cloths to reduce the
intensity of the steam, and (on machines with steam variation control) with the steam
set at low level.
• If cleaning glass surfaces in particularly low temperatures preheat the glass using the
hand gun from about 50 centimetres distance from the surface to be cleaned.
• For care of your plants vaporise at a minimum distance of 50 centimetres.
