WHICH WATER TO USE IN THE
BOILER
This appliance has been designed to function
with medium-hardness tap water between
8°f and 20°f. If the tap water is very hard, do
not just use demineralised water but a mix
composed of 50% tap water and 50% dem-
ineralised water which is widely available to
purchase.
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 spe-
cial Polti Kalstop (PAEU0094) anti-limescale
product, distributed by Polti, and available for
sale at all major domestic-appliance stores or
online at www.polti.com.
Do not use distilled water, undiluted demin-
eralised water, rain water or water contain-
ing additives (e.g. starch, perfumes), scented
water or water produced by other domestic
appliances, by water softeners and filter jugs.
Do not add chemical, natural, detergent, or li-
mescale removing substances, etc.

use of steam and dry ironing to avoid water
leaking from the holes on the soleplate.

kind of fabric. Always start ironing with the
garments that require the lowest temper-
