WHICH WATER TO USE IN THE
BOILER
This appliance has been designed to function
with normal medium tap water between 8°f
and 20°f. If the tap water contains a lot of li-
mescale use a mix composed of 50% tap wa-
ter and 50% demineralised water which is wi-
dely available to purchase. Do not use pure
demineralised water.
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 limescale product, distributed
by Polti, and available for sale at all major do-
mestic-appliance stores or online at www.pol-
ti.com.
Never use distilled water, rain water or water
containing additives (e.g. starch, perfumes),
or water produced by other domestic ap-
pliances, by water softeners or filter jugs.
Do not add chemical, natural, detergent, or li-
mescale removing substances, etc.
USE
Polti Cimex Eradicator is a steam generator

equipped with Polti Steam Disinfector (Polti
worldwide patent), a gun capable of dispen-
sing steam heated to 180°C. Polti Cimex Era-
dicator is a natural and effective method for
eliminating the problem of bed bugs. Labora-
tory tests and field trials have shown that Pol-
ti Cimex Eradicator treatment with dry satu-
rated steam heated to 180° C is able to
eliminate 100% of eggs and larvae and more
than 90% of adult insects with the first pass.
The steam dispenser, Polti Steam Disinfector,
is equipped with a controlled-expansion heat
exchange device, Polti world patent, which
further heats the steam generated by the boi-
ler to the temperatures reported above. In
this way, eggs, larvae and insects die in a few
seconds from heat shock.
To eliminate 100% of adult insects and get ad-
vice on how to find and remove the bugs,
please follow the instructions listed in the
Quick uide to Disinfestation.
The Polti HPMed, mixed with the steam at the
time it is dispensed, removes the bad smells
generated by the bed bugs. Polti HPMed is a
water-alcohol solution that can be dispensed
when people are present.
1. PREPARIN FOR USE
1.1 Remove the appliance from the packaging,
checking that the product is whole and that
all the parts are there.
1.2 Attach the pivoting wheels to the base of
the appliance applying pressure (1).
1.3 Unscrew the safety cap (2) and fill the boi-
ler with 2l of water (3)(if completely empty).
Carefully screw the safety cap back on (2),
checking that it is fully tightened.
This operation must always be carried out
when the boiler has cooled and with the
power cable disconnected from the mains.
1.4 Open the door of the built-in socket and
insert the Polti Steam Disinfector built-in plug
of the steam hose (4), pressing the specific
button and making sure that the hooking pin
is inserted perfectly in the specific locking ho-
le on the socket.
1.5 Unscrew the cap of the Polti HPMed deter-
gent (5).
1.6 Insert the stopper into the bottle (6) until
it rests on the base of the bottle, ensuring
that it stays as straight as possible (7).
1.7 Screw the bottle into the dispensing gun
fitting taking care to ensure that the stopper
enters the hole inside the fitting perfectly,
without bending (8).
1.8 Connect the cable plug to an earthed
power supply of the correct voltage(9).
Completely unwind the power cable before
plugging it into the mains and before use, and
always use the appliance with the power ca-
ble completely unwound.
1.9 Press the boiler switch ( ) and the acces-
sories switch ( ) (10), which will light up to-
gether with the “steam ready” indicator light
( ) and the indicator light on the Polti Steam
Disinfector.
1.10 Wait for the “steam ready” indicator light
( ) and the steam dispenser light to turn off.
The indicator light (16) signals that there is
pressure in the boiler. The appliance is ready
for use.
2. STEAM ADJUSTMENT
You can optimise the steam flow by means of
the steam adjustment knob located on the
steam generator (11). To increase the flow,
turn the knob in an anticlockwise direction.
Turning it in a clockwise direction reduces the
flow. For maximum efficiency, set the adjust-
ment knob to the maximum level.
3. USE OF POLTI STEAM
DISINFECTOR
The steam dispenser has a safety switch whi-
ch prevents the accidental activation of
steam delivery by children or people unaware
of its operation. Should the appliance be left
momentarily unguarded, move the safety
switch to the off position (12). To continue
steam delivery, move the switch back to its
original position (13).
3.1 Direct the steam downwards for 2 seconds
WARNIN : Do not screw the bottle to the
gun without the stopper. If no consumption
of Polti HPMed is seen during use of the pro-
duct, this means that the stopper has not
been inserted correctly, or has folded within
the bottle. Unscrew the bottle and repeat
the insertion procedure, taking care to posi-
tion it correctly.
WARNIN : If steam is escaping from the sa-
fety cap, switch the appliance off and unplug
it from the mains. Wait for one two for the ap-
pliance to cool before unscrewing the cap
and screwing it back on.
WARNIN : When first operating steam, the-
re may be some drops of water mixed with
the steam due to temperature imbalances.
EN LISH

in order to bring all the components of the
appliance to their correct temperature, in or-
der to avoid condensation.
3.2 Position the Polti Steam Disinfector in a
position perpendicular to the surface to be
treated and keep it at the distance provided
by the spacer bracket / holder to avoid direct
contact in case of delicate material (14).
3.3 Deliver the steam on a continuous move-
ment, using “brushing” movements to cover
the surface to be treated. In this way the flow
of dry steam at high temperatures will kill the
bugs, devitalising their eggs on all treated
surfaces.
Polti Cimex Eradicator delivers dry saturated
steam at high temperatures that will dry
without leaving residues within 30 seconds to
1 minute, depending on environmental condi-
tions.
3.4 Connect the accessories depending on
the use:
Straight flow concentrator, for a concentra-
ted jet.
Curved flow concentrator to reach difficult
places.
Just bring the accessory chosen into line with
the delivery device nozzle and rotate the ac-
cessory until it locks into place (15).
Please refer to the Rapid uide to Disinfesta-
tion located in the package for instructions on
how to find and remove bed bugs.
4. POLTI HPMED
The characteristics of the Polti HPMed deter-
gent make it the ideal aid to the action of dry
saturated steam at high temperatures delive-
red by Polti Cimex Eradicator.
Polti HPMed is a water-alcohol solution that
removes the bad smells generated by bed
bugs. Polti HPMed can be dispensed when
people are present. Polti HPMed, mixed with
the steam flow makes it possible to succes-
sfully remove the eggs, organic traces due to
bed bug faeces and to completely eliminate
the characteristic odour of these insects.
