CONGRATULATIONS Dear Customer, Thank you for purchasing our product. By choosing Vaporetto Lecoaspira, you will have a complete appliance for cleaning your home, capable of vacuuming solids and liquids, sanitising with steam, drying and eliminating dust mites and allergens. You can decide, depending on your needs, whether to use the steam and suction together for complete cleaning, just the suction to effectively collect dust or just the steam for specific cleaning tasks. The suction feature: The heart of the filtration system is represented by the exclusive “Eco-Active” water filter, patented by Polti. The “Eco-Active” water filter uses the natural purifying force of water to trap dirt, preventing dispersion of dust into the environment. In addition, the HEPA filter collects impurities including pollen as well as dust mites. The steam feature: The Lecoaspira steam is dry and powerful. Thanks to the heat, it removes and dissolves dirt eliminating grease, germs and dust mites. The sanitising force of steam is completely natural and has a cleaning power that even the most modern chemical detergents cannot equal. You can find useful suggestions on our website www.polti.com to take full advantage of all the features of your Lecoaspira. Please consult the “Guide for a Healthy and Clean Home” found on the home page of the website. We hope you enjoy your Polti product. This unit conforms with EC-directives 2004/108/CE (EMC) and 2006/95/CE (low voltage).

NOTE You can also add Bioecologico, the natural, anti-foam liquid and deodorant to the container which, in addition to filling the room with a pleasant perfume, prevents the formation of foam in the water filter, guaranteeing the correct operation of the appliance. (For more detailed information please refer to the specific paragraph). ♦ Replace the filter assembly (23) in the dirt container (20) returning it to its original position. ♦ Reposition the dirt container (20) in the specific space and turn the handle until it returns to its starting position. ATTENTION Incorrectly inserting the collection container can cause a reduction in the suction capacity. PREPARATION FOR STEAM USE FILLING THE TANK ♦ Turn the cap of the tank outwards (7) (fig. 1). ♦ Fill the self-filling tank with approx. 560 cc – at least to above the maximum level of the float (Fig. 2) – of normal water using the filler bottle (Q). TYPE OF WATER TO USE This appliance has been designed to work with normal tap water. However, since water contains limestone by nature, which may cause scaling in the long run, we recommend using a 50/50 mixture of tap water and demineralised water or treated with softening systems. To use tap water and avoid scale formation, we recommend the addition of the special natural scale removal agent Kalstop FP2003. ATTENTION Absolutely do not use distilled water, dryer condensate water, perfumed water, rain water, battery water, water from air conditioning systems and the like. Do not use chemical substances or detergents. FILLING THE BOILER DURING USE Thanks to the self-filling system, it is no longer necessary to stop and wait before refilling the boiler with water. When the water in the boiler is at the minimum level, the level sensor automatically draws off water from the tank by means of a pump which fills the boiler. When the water in the self-filling tank runs out, the “Out of water” indicator lamp (3) will light up and a buzzer will sound. To continue working, just follow the indications in the paragraph "Filling the tank". 40 LECOASPIRA TURBO & ALLERGY - M0S10127 - 1T07:Layout 1 24/07/2013 8.50 Pagina 41 LECOASPIRA TURBO & ALLERGY SWITCHING ON HOW TO USE: SUCTION ♦ If the appliance is switched off: Switch it on by pressing the main switch (1). ♦ he first level of the suction indicators (5) will begin to flash. ADJUSTMENT OF THE SUCTION LEVEL By simply pressing the button (A4) you can select the suction power according to the type of surface you are cleaning. Level 1 curtains Level 2 sofas and cushions Level 3 carpets Level 4 bare floors or to clean up liquids ♦ When the suction power is increased, an indicator light (5) will come on. ♦ When the suction power is decreased, the indicator light (5) will go off. ♦ To stop the suction press the key (A4). NOTE When the appliance is switched on again, the suction level will be that set last time it was used. IN CASE OF AUTOMATIC STOP When the dirt sucked into the water container (20) reaches the maximum allowed level, suction will be automatically blocked by the special safety float. This can also occur when the water in the container is very dirty. In these cases, there will be an increase in the motor speed. When this occurs, the water must be replaced in the container. Turn off the appliance and only restart it when the level of the water in the container has been restored as described in the chapter “Emptying and cleaning the dirt container.” Any immediate restarting when the appliance has gone into pause mode can damage the air outlet filter. 41 ENGLISH ♦ Open the monoblock socket door (9), insert the monobloc plug (A6) of the flexible hose (A) pushing it until you hear the click of the hooking mechanism (A7) (Fig. 6-6a). ♦ Connect the power plug to a suitable electric socket. LECOASPIRA TURBO & ALLERGY - M0S10127 - 1T07:Layout 1 24/07/2013 8.50 Pagina 42 LECOASPIRA TURBO & ALLERGY ENGLISH HOW TO USE: STEAM ♦ Press the boiler button (2), which will light up. ♦ Wait for the pressure indicator lamp (4) to come on. This indicates that the appliance is ready for use. ♦ By pressing the steam button (A5) on the handle you can dispense steam. ♦ To stop the steam flow, simply release the button (A5). NOTE If you decide you no longer wish to use the steam, you can switch off the boiler by pressing the relative button (2). STEAM ADJUSTMENT You can optimise the steam flow by means of the steam control knob (8) on the handle (Fig. 7). To increase the flow, turn the regulator control clockwise. Turn the control anticlockwise to reduce the flow. Strong steam to remove scale, stains, grease and sanitise Normal steam for carpets, rugs, glass, floors Gentle steam to steam plants, clean delicate fabrics, wall coverings, sofas, etc. NOTE The handle of the flexible hose (A2) is fitted with a safety button (A3) to prevent the accidental activation of steam delivery by children or people who do not know how it works. Should the appliance be left momentarily unguarded, move the safety button (A3) to the off position. To continue steam delivery, move the switch back to its original position. NOTE When first operating it, there may be some drops of water mixed with the steam due to imperfect thermal stabilization. We therefore recommend that the first jet of steam be directed onto a rag. HOW TO USE: STEAM + SUCTION You can use the steam and suction features at the same time, by activating them both as described in the preceding paragraphs and pressing both the keys (1) and (2). 42 LECOASPIRA TURBO & ALLERGY - M0S10127 - 1T07:Layout 1 24/07/2013 8.50 Pagina 43 LECOASPIRA TURBO & ALLERGY ♦ Before steam 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 adjustment the steam to minimum (if your appliance has steam adjustment) and never direct 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. ♦ To take care of your plants, we recommend spraying them from a minimum distance of 50 cm. ATTENTION To clean glass surfaces in particularly cold seasons, preheat the windows starting from a distance of about 50 cm from the surface. 43 ENGLISH RECOMMENDATIONS FOR CLEANING DELICATE SURFACES LECOASPIRA TURBO & ALLERGY - M0S10127 - 1T07:Layout 1 24/07/2013 8.50 Pagina 44 LECOASPIRA TURBO & ALLERGY AFTER USE ENGLISH OPERATIONS TO BE CARRIED OUT AFTER USE ♦ Switch off the appliance by pressing the main switch (1) (fig. 7). ♦ disconnect the plug from the electricity socket. ♦ Disconnect the monoblock plug (A6) from the appliance by pressing the button (A7) and by pulling the plug to remove it from the appliance. EMPTYING AND CLEANING THE DIRT CONTAINER After having turned the appliance off and disconnecting it from the electricity, empty the water container (20). One of the great advantages of Vaporetto Lecoaspira is in fact the possibility of cleaning it, thereby avoiding all risk of the spread of micro-organisms. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ Lift the water container (20) removing it with the container handle (22)(Fig. 3). Turn the handle as per (fig. 4) eand remove the “ Eco-Active” water filter assembly (23). Empty the container by tilting it towards the spout (Fig.10). Pull the elbow tube (27) from the filter body with the micro pore net (26) until it slides off (Fig. 11a). ♦ Separate all the components and rinse them under running water. (If the filter sponge has tears, replace it. To purchase one, contact an authorized Polti Service centre). ♦ After drying the various components of the “Eco-Active ” water filter, reinsert the water filter assembly, in the water container (20). ATTENTION align the arrow located on the elbow pipe (27) with the reference notch located on the filter body (26) (Fig. 11b - 11c). ♦ Replace the water container (20) as described in the chapter “preparing for use”. TIP A recommendation for cleaning the container and the extension tubes, if particularly dirty: once cleaning is complete, empty the container as described and place it back in its housing on the body of the appliance. Connect the appliance to the mains. Then vacuum up approximately 1.5 litres of clean water using the suction function for a few seconds. The water vortex created inside the container will rinse the sides and remove any dirt. The clean water will also clean the inside of the tubes as it travels through them. Empty the container again and put Vaporetto Lecoaspira away. 44 LECOASPIRA TURBO & ALLERGY - M0S10127 - 1T07:Layout 1 24/07/2013 8.50 Pagina 45 LECOASPIRA TURBO & ALLERGY CONNECTING THE ACCESSORIES ♦ To connect the two extension tubes together (B) and (B1) it is important to pay attention to the direction indicated by the arrows. ♦ Hook both extension tubes (B) and (B1) to the connecting accessories (A1) of the flexible hose (A). PARKING SYSTEM The appliance is equipped with a parking system on which it is possible, when you have finished using them, to replace the extension tube accessory (B1). Incorrect assembly of the two parts, (B) and (B1), will not allow this feature to be used. The accessories storage (16) allows you to fasten the tube (B1) with or without the brush assembled onto the appliance body. To connect the tube (B1) to the appliance, slide the hook located on the tube into the accessories storage on the appliance (Fig. 9). CONNECTING THE ACCESSORIES All the Lecoaspira accessories can be connected directly to the connecting accessories (A1) or to the extension tubes (B) or (B1), previously assembled. To connect the specific accessories for the suction and steam features (B-B1-C-D-E): proceed as follows: - Move the locknut (B2) of the accessory, if present, to the OPEN position (Fig.A1). - Attach the desired accessory to the handle. - Move the locknut (B2) of the accessory to the CLOSED position (Fig. A2) - Check that it is firmly connected. - There is also a lock button on the steam-suction extension tubes - B and B1: proceed as above for the accessories, releasing the tubes by sliding the button as far as the lock position (fig. A3). Fig. A1 Fig. A3 Fig. A2 - To connect the special accessories only for suction (E2-F-G-H-L-M-N) it is only necessary to attach them without coupling them to the locknut. To connect the steam lance (E1) with the 120° accessory (E), just screw it on. The same operation can be carried out for the coloured brushes (E3), which can in turn be screwed onto the 120° accessory (E) and onto the steam lance (E1). The different colours allow you to always use the same brush for the same surface.

In very hard water areas we recommend the use of our Kalstop FP2003, a special natural-base decalcifier which inhibits and breaks down limescale. This is a preventive against scale build-up and protects the metal walls of the boiler. Kalstop FP2003 can be found in small appliance stores, Polti service centres and on the web site www.polti.com HOW TO USE KALSTOP FP2003 ♦ Dilute one phial to 5 litres of water before putting it in the boiler.

COMBINATION ACCESSORIES WITH 120° ACCESSORY Coloured brushes (E3) Recommended for removing encrusted dirt from very narrow surfaces, such as hobs, blinds, tile grouting, bathroom fittings, etc. The different colours allow you to always use the same brush on the same surface. Steam lance (E1) Recommended for reaching the most difficult place, ideal for cleaning radiators, door and window jambs, bathrooms and shutters. To connect the lance to the 120° accessory just screw it on like the coloured brushes, which can in turn be screwed onto the lance. Small suction nozzle (E2) Recommended for vacuuming the dirt removed from tight surfaces such as between tiles, door jambs, slits of shutters, etc. Suction lance (F) Recommended for thorough vacuum cleaning of hard-to-reach spots such as skirting-boards and folds in sofas, armchairs, upholstered furniture and car upholstery. 49 ENGLISH The 120° accessory can be used to: LECOASPIRA TURBO & ALLERGY - M0S10127 - 1T07:Layout 1 24/07/2013 8.51 Pagina 50 LECOASPIRA TURBO & ALLERGY STEAM + SUCTION NOZZLE (D) ENGLISH The use of this accessory is recommended on large windows, small mirrors, smooth surfaces in general, or for washing textile surfaces such as sofas, mattresses, etc. INSERTS USAGE: 225 mm window for windows and larger surfaces cleaning insert (D1) 155 mm window for smooth surfaces of small dimensions cleaning insert (D2) Bristle insert (D3) for carpets, stairs, car interiors, textile surfaces in general (after a test on hidden parts) and useful for removing animal fur from these surfaces; the sponge cap (01) can also be attached to the nozzle. NOTE Before treating the surface, always do a test on a hidden part and see how it reacts to the steam treatment. To correctly use the steam-suction window cleaner, proceed as follows ♦ uniformly deliver steam on the surface to be cleaned to dissolve the dirt. ♦ Press the window cleaner insert against the surface to be cleaned, moving vertically from top to bottom with the suction function on. ATTENTION During periods of particularly low temperatures, pre-heat the windows emitting steam from about 50 cm away from the surface to be treated. UPHOLSTERY SUCTION NOZZLE (G) Recommended for cleaning fabric surfaces such as sofa joints, armchairs, mattresses, car seats, etc.. SUCTION BRUSH WITH SOFT BRISTLES (H) With soft bristles for brushing delicate surfaces such as picture frames, books, etc.. 50 LECOASPIRA TURBO & ALLERGY - M0S10127 - 1T07:Layout 1 24/07/2013 8.51 Pagina 51 LECOASPIRA TURBO & ALLERGY To clean carpets, use the turbo-brush (M): a turbine system increases effectiveness and efficiency when vacuuming fabric surfaces. The use of the turbo-brush on carpets revives the fibres thanks to the brushing action of the roller, which opens the fibres, allowing for deep cleansing. The mechanical rotary action of the turbo brush is ideal for removing animal hair from hard surfaces, rugs and carpets, even shag carpets. The turbo brush can be used as a traditional brush on hard surfaces since it has a by-pass system which diverts the air flow directly to the suction pipe. Use: A cursor on the back of the turbo brush permits you to adapt it to any kind of surface: slide the cursor (M1) to the left for hard surfaces, and slide it to the right for carpets and fitted carpeting. The cursor adjusts the speed of the turbine system: when it is moved completely to the right, the turbine works at the maximum rotation speed, while when it is moved completely to the left there is no rotation and the brush operates as a normal floor brush. The turbine can be easily accessed for cleaning thanks to the practical flap (fig.E). If using the turbo brush on shag carpets and/or when you want the brush roller to move faster, you may remove the rubber profile from the front of the brush (fig.D) MINI TURBO-BRUSH (N) The mini turbo-brush is especially suitable for cleaning armchairs and sofas, the inside of cars, fabric-lined walls, etc. It removes dust, dandruff, fabric residues with ease. Useful for the prevention of allergies, since it removes animal hairs by means of the mechanical action of the roller brushes. The mini turbo-brush is also provided with a frame with hard rubber bristles to remove the more stubborn dirt. To remove the frame, press on the two pins at the side of the brush and separate the frame from the brush (Fig. E) (do not use the frame on delicate surfaces). To clean the mini turbo-brush, turn the locknut and remove the upper part of the mini turbo-brush as shown in fig G. Clean the internal part of the brush and close it by repeating the steps for removal but in the opposite order. 51 ENGLISH TURBO-BRUSH (M) LECOASPIRA TURBO & ALLERGY - M0S10127 - 1T07:Layout 1 24/07/2013 8.51 Pagina 52 LECOASPIRA TURBO & ALLERGY OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES ENGLISH PROFESSIONAL IRON (S) Vaporetto Lecoaspira Turbo & Allergy can quickly become an extremely efficient ironing system, allowing you to iron more quickly and with less effort. Simply connect the iron accessory to the product for Vaporetto Lecoaspira (Mod. PFEU0021).

Before ironing an item of clothing, always check the symbols on its label, for the instructions provided by the manufacturer. Check, based on the following table, the most appropriate type of ironing: Steam ironing allowed For dry ironing, set temperature adjustment knob (S4) on ••• Steam ironing allowed For dry ironing, set temperature adjustment knob (S4) on •• Check the fabric's resistance to steam ironing or dry iron with temperature adjustment knob (S4) set on • - do not iron - steam ironing or treatment not allowed STEAM IRONING ♦ For steam ironing, adjust the temperature of the iron by positioning the temperature adjustment knob (S4) to COTTON-LINEN. ♦ Wait a few minutes for the iron heating indicator light (S3) to go off, indicating that the iron has reached the established temperature. ♦ Press the steam request button (S2) to allow steam to escape. Releasing the button, the flow stops. When first operating the iron, some drops of water may leak from the plate mixed with the steam due to imperfect thermal stabilization. We therefore recommend that the first jet of steam be directed onto a rag. ♦ To have a continuous jet of steam move the button forward (S1). The steam will continue to come out even when the button is released (S2). To stop the steam, move the continuous jet insert button backward (S1). DRY IRONING ♦ For dry ironing, before switching on the boiler, adjust the temperature of the iron by turning the knob (S4) to the temperature required according to the fabric, indicated on the knob itself. 52 LECOASPIRA TURBO & ALLERGY - M0S10127 - 1T07:Layout 1 24/07/2013 8.51 Pagina 53 LECOASPIRA TURBO & ALLERGY BRASS BRUSHES (E4) TELESCOPIC TUBE (I) You may adjust the length of the telescopic tube from a minimum of about 60 cm to a maximum of 1 m.
