Correct use of the product is only as detailed

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%
demineralised 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 special
Polti
Kalstop
(PAEU0094)
product, distributed by Polti, and available
for sale at all major domestic-appliance
stores or online at www.polti.com.
Do
not
use
distilled
demineralised water, rain water or water
containing 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
limescale removing substances, etc.
