11. SELF CLEAN SYSTEM
The Polti Vaporella Quick&Slide Self Clean
system ensures removal of limescale, thus
guaranteeing a better supply of steam,
avoiding the leakage of dirt from holes in the
plate which can create stains.
Regularly run the Self Clean cycle to ensure
better performance and durability over time.
Perform the cycle whenever the Self Clean
light
turns on x (after approximately 36
hours of use).
In any case, it is possible to perform the
cleaning cycle at any time.
Before running the cleaning cycle, make sure
you have a large receptacle or bowl on hand
to collect the water, steam and limescale that
will come out from the iron during the pro-
cess, thus avoiding the wetting of the ironing
board or surface on which you are ironing.
How to perform the Self Clean limescale
cleaning cycle:
11.1 Unplug the power supply cord from the
electric socket.
11.2 Set the steam adjustment to the zero po-
sition (=steam OFF)
(3).
11.3 Fill the water tank as described in Chap-
ter 1.
11.4 Plug the power supply cord into the elec-
tric socket.
11.5 Turn on the appliance, setting the temper-
ature to the MAX level (5).
11.6 Wait until the MAX symbol shown on the
digital display stops flashing and remains on.
11.7 Then unplug the power supply cord from
the electric socket again.
11.8 Hold the device horizontally around 15 cm
from a receptacle/bowl and hold down the
Self Clean button to begin the cleaning cycle
(10-11). Shake the iron lightly to better empty
the tank.
11.9 When the tank is empty, release the Self
Clean button.
11.10 Plug the power supply cord into the elec-
tric socket.
11.11 Turn on the appliance, setting the tem-
perature to the MAX level.
11.12 When the iron is ready (the MAX symbol
on the display stops flashing and stays on),
lightly shake it over a cloth, so as to remove
any water drops which may still be on the
plate.
11.13 Turn off the appliance and unplug it from
the electric socket.
11.14 Wait until it has fully cooled before
putting it away.
12. GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Except when running the Self Clean cycle, al-
ways unplug the appliance from the power
mains before conducting any maintenance
upon it, making sure that the product has
cooled down before proceeding.
To clean the outside of the appliance, use
only a damp cloth.
Do not use detergents of any type.
Clean the iron soleplate when it is completely
cold with a damp cloth or with a non-abrasive
sponge.
13. STORAGE
13.1 Turn off the appliance and unplug it from
the mains electricity.
13.2 Empty the water tank, turning the
appliance
upside
down
over
a
receptacle/bowl (12).
13.3 Wait for the appliance to cool down
completely before storing it.
To
ensure
the
best
performance,
we
recommend the cleaning procedure be
performed once a month.
