or if steam is escaping, stop the operation immediately and
make sure that the appliance is switched off with the cable
unplugged from the mains. Then, wait for the appliance to
cool down (at least 2 hours) and unscrew the cap before
removal.
• Always use the appliance with the safety cap supplied or an
original replacement part.
• Do not plug it into the electrical socket if the cap is not fully
tightened.
• Before turning the appliance on, check that there is nothing
blocking the mouth of the boiler (filler bottle, funnel, or other
objects). Check that the cap is correctly tightened. If steam is
escaping from the cap, switch off the boiler, unplug the
power cable, wait for 2 hours for the appliance to cool, and
then unscrew the cap. Check the condition of the cap and its
seal. If the cap is in good condition, screw it back on
completely. If steam continues to escape from the cap, take
the appliance to the nearest authorised service centre.
• Check the condition of the cap and its seal regularly. Impact
and being dropped may compromise the safety of the cap.
Replace with an original spare part or replace the seal.
• If the cap spins freely, this indicates that the boiler is still
pressurised and, therefore, hot. Never force the cap open,
whether the appliance is switched on or the boiler is switched
off and the appliance is disconnected from the mains.
• Do not use tools to unscrew the cap. If the cap cannot be
removed, even once the appliance has cooled, go to your
nearest authorised service centre.
• Using non-original Polti safety caps constitutes improper use
and can lead to accidents.
WARNINGS FOR MAINTENANCE
• Never disassemble or carry out maintenance on the
appliance apart from that indicated in the warnings and
instructions. In the event of a fault or malfunction, do not try
and repair the appliance yourself. Incorrect use or non-
observance of the instructions herein may lead to serious
accidents. Always contact Authorised Service Centres.
