FILLING THE WATER AND
DETERGENT TANKS
• Fill the water tank (I) with ordinary tap wa­ter using the filling can provided (R) (fig.1).
Use water with a hardness of less than 5 °F.
If your water is particularly hard, use a mixture of 50% tap water and 50% dem­ineralised water.
• Use the funnel (23) to fill the detergent tank (J) with appropriately diluted deter­gent.
CAUTION: never fill the water tank with deter­gent solution or vice versa, and never switch the positions of the two tanks on the appliance. It is important to fill the water tank (I) with water only, NEVER with detergent. Putting detergent into the water tank could seriously damage the appliance.
• Close the tanks by screwing on the cap (S).
Never remove the tank from the machine.
If you use the same filling can to fill both the water and the detergent tank, be careful not to mix up the two liquids, and rinse the filling can (R) before filling it again.

CLEANING PRODUCTS:
We recommend use of cleaning products from the Polti HP007 PROFESSIONAL line only, as they are specifically designed and tested for use with Mondial Vap steam appliances. Refer to product labels for information on dilu­tion percentages and how to use Polti HP007 PROFESSIONAL products.
CAUTION:
• Never use foamy or acidic cleaning products, as they could damage the components in­side the appliance.
• Never use cleaning products containing muriatic acid, ammonia or products classified as irritant, as use of irritating products with steam increases their volatility so that they can be hazardous to the health if inhaled.
Problems caused by use of cleaning
products other than those recommended above will not be covered by the guaran­tee.

Before steam-treating leather, special fabrics and wooden surfaces, refer to the manufactu­rer’s care instructions and always test by ap­plying steam to a hidden corner or sample of the material. Let the steam-treated part dry and then check it for colour changes or deforma­tion. DO NOT USE STEAM ON DRAYLON, VEL­VET OR SIMILAR SENSITIVE SURFACES. Be very careful when cleaning wooden surfa­ces (furniture, doors, etc.) and brick floors, as excessively prolonged use of steam could da­mage the wax, polish or colour of the surfaces. Apply steam to surfaces of this kind only for brief intervals, or clean them with a cloth to which you have applied steam. On particularly delicate surfaces (such as synthetic materials, lacquered surfaces, etc.) use only the minimum steam setting. When cleaning glass in cold weather, preheat the glass by starting to spray from about 50 cm away. Spray plants from at least 50 cm away.
