NOTE: The steam ready indicator light (C) will
go on and off which you are using your VA-
PORETTO. This indicates that the electrical
resistance is working to keep pressure con-
stant and should be considered normal.
ADJUSTMENT STEAM
Vaporetto enables the flow of steam desired
to be optimised by turning the adjustment
knob (E). You can use this control to increase
the steam flow by turning in anti-clockwise di-
rection. Turning the control in a clockwise di-
rection reduces the steam flow (fig. 3). Here
are some tips for regulating it:
• Strong steam: to remove scaling, stains,
grease and to sanitise;
• Normal steam: for carpets, rugs, glass,
floors;
• Gentle steam: to steam plants, clean deli-
cate fabrics, wall coverings, sofas, etc
CONNECTION OF ACCESSORIES
• To connect up accessories, simply push
them together until the accessory snaps
into place (10) (fig. 6).
• To release the accessories simply hold the
button (10) down and separate the compo-
nents.
• Before using the accessories, make sure that
they are firmly in place.
LACK OF WATER
The automatic topping up system means it is
no longer necessary to stop and wait before
filling up the boiler again. If no steam is emit-
ted when requested and the indicator light
(D) comes on, this means there is no more
water in the tank. To continue working, add
water to the automatic topping up tank as de-
scribed in the section on "PREPARATION".
PRECAUTIONS FOR DELICATE
SURFACES
• Before treating leather, special fabrics and
wood surfaces, consult the manufacturer's
instructions and always carry out a test on a
hidden part or on a sample of the material.
Allow the steamed part to dry to make sure
that no changes in colour or deformations
have occurred.
• Please pay careful attention when cleaning
wooden and treated terracotta flooring as
prolonged use of steam may damage the
wax, polish or colour of the surfaces to be
cleaned. We therefore recommend adjust-
ment the steam to minimum (if your ap-
pliance has steam adjustment) and never di-
rect the jet of steam directly on the surface,
but cover the brush with a cloth. Do not
keep spraying steam in the same place.
For wooden surfaces (furniture, doors, etc.),
we recommend cleaning with a cloth which
has been steamed previously.
• Also on particularly delicate surfaces (e.g.
synthetic materials, lacquered surfaces etc.) it
is recommended to always cover the brushes
with a cloth and to use steam to a minimum.
• If cleaning glass surfaces in particularly low
temperatures preheat the glass using the
hand gun from about 50 centimetres di-
stance from the surface to be cleaned.
.
• For care of your plants vaporise at a mini-
mum distance of 50 centimetres.
PRACTICAL ADVICE FOR THE USE
OF THE ACCESSORIES
Without inserting the brushes, just the
steam gun can be used for particular clea-
ning, using steam and close range or not,
depending on the type of material and the
nature of the dirt to be cleaned. The more
stubborn the dirt, the closer the steam gun
must be kept, as temperature and pressure
are greatest at the time of release. In all ca-
ses, after steaming, rub more stubborn dirt
with a dry cloth or abrasive sponge.
Use the steam gun to:
• treat stains on carpets or rugs before
running the brush over it;
• clean stainless steel, glass, mirrors, laye-
red and enamel coverings;
• clean corners that are difficult to access,
such as stairs, window frames, door fra-
mes, aluminium profiles;
• clean hob knobs and tap bases;
• clean shutters, radiators and car interiors;
• steam apartment plants (from a distan-
ce);
• eliminate
clothes.
