CONGRATULATIONS
Dear Customer,
Thank you for purchasing our product.
By choosing Vaporetto Lecoaspira, you will have a complete appliance for cleaning your home,
capable of vacuuming solids and liquids, sanitising with steam, drying and eliminating dust mites
and allergens. You can decide, depending on your needs, whether to use the steam and
suction together for complete cleaning, just the suction to effectively collect dust or just the
steam for specific cleaning tasks.
The Intelligent model is equipped with advanced features of the most modern electronics. In
fact, it is capable of operating fully 10 cleaning programmes, automatically setting the optimal
suction power and pressure of the steam depending on the surface to be cleaned.
The suction feature:
The heart of the filtration system is represented by the exclusive “Eco-Active” water filter,
patented by Polti. The “Eco-Active” water filter uses the natural purifying force of water to trap
dirt, preventing dispersion of dust into the environment. In addition, the HEPA filter collects
impurities including pollen as well as dust mites.
The steam feature:
The Lecoaspira steam is dry and powerful. Thanks to the heat, it removes and dissolves dirt
eliminating grease, germs and dust mites. The sanitising force of steam is completely natural
and has a cleaning power that even the most modern chemical detergents cannot equal.
You can find useful suggestions on our website www.polti.com to take full advantage of all the
features of your Lecoaspira. Please consult the “Guide for a Healthy and Clean Home” found
on the home page of the website.
We hope you enjoy your Polti product.
This unit conforms with EC-directives 2004/108/CE (EMC) and 2006/95/CE
(low voltage).
Polti S.p.A. reserves the right to change equipment or accessory specification wi-
thout prior notice.

INFORMATION FOR USERS
Directive 2002/96/EC (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment - WEEE): information for users
This product complies with EU Directive 2002/96/EC.
The crossed-out wastebasket symbol on the appliance means that at the end of its useful
lifespan, the product must be disposed of separately from ordinary household wastes.
The user is responsible for delivering the appliance to an appropriate collection facility at
the end of its useful lifespan.
Appropriate separate collection to permit recycling, treatment and environmentally compatible dis-
posal helps to prevent negative impact on the environment and human health and promotes the re-
cycling of the materials making up the product. For more information on available collection facili-
ties, contact your local waste collection service or the shop where you bought this appliance
This appliance is intended for home use as a generator of steam and as a vacuum of liquids, dust
and dirt in accordance with the instructions provided in this manual. Please read these instructions
carefully and keep them, as you may find them useful in future.
Polti S.p.A. declines all liability for any damage or accident deriving from any use of this
appliance which is not in conformity with the instructions contained in this booklet.
Vaporetto Lecoaspira Intelligent 2.0 is a multi-function appliance which, depending on the need
and type of cleaning you want to do, can be used:
- Just as a vacuum to remove dust from surfaces. In this case, remember to add water to the dirt
collection container.
- Just as a steam cleaner to sanitise surfaces. For this feature, the container must be filled with
water to supply the boiler.
- To use the suction and steam features at the same time to vacuum, wash and dry at the same
time. Naturally, in this case both the dirt collection container and the tank must be filled.

♦ Lift the handle (22) of the dirt collection container (20) (Fig. 3).
♦ Remove the container (20) from its housing , turn the handle (22) of the container backwards
(Fig. 4) in order to remove the “Eco-Active” filter assembly (23).
♦ Fill the container with about 1,2 L of plain tap water up to the MAX indicator (21).
You can also add Bioecologico, the natural, anti-foam liquid and deodorant to the contai-
ner which, in addition to filling the room with a pleasant perfume, prevents the formation of foam in
the water filter, guaranteeing the correct operation of the appliance. (For more detailed information
please refer to the specific paragraph).
♦ Replace the filter assembly (23) in the dirt container (20) returning it to its original position.
♦ Reposition the dirt container (20) in the specific space and turn the handle until it returns to its
starting position.
Incorrectly inserting the collection container can cause a reduction in
the suction capacity.
♦ Turn the cap of the tank outwards (7) (Fig. 1).
♦ Fill the self-filling tank with approx. 560 cc – at least to above the maximum level of the float (Fig.
2) – of normal water using the filler bottle (Q).
TYPE OF WATER TO USE
This appliance has been designed to work with normal tap water.
However, since water contains limestone by nature, which may cause scaling in the long run, we
recommend using a 50/50 mixture of tap water and demineralised water or treated with softening
systems. To use tap water and avoid scale formation, we recommend the addition of the special
natural scale removal agent Kalstop FP2003.
Absolutely do not use distilled water, dryer condensate water, perfumed
water, rain water, battery water, water from air conditioning systems and the like. Do not use
chemical substances or detergents.
Thanks to the self-filling system, it is no longer necessary to stop and wait before refilling the boiler with
water.
When the water in the boiler is at the minimum level, the level sensor automatically draws off water
from the tank by means of a pump which fills the boiler. When the water in the self-filling tank runs out,
the “Out of water” indicator lamp (8G) will light up and a buzzer will sound.
To continue working, just follow the indications in the paragraph "Filling the tank".

♦ Open the monoblock socket door (9), insert the monobloc plug (A6) of the flexible hose (A) pu-
shing it until you hear the click of the hooking mechanism (A7) (Fig. 6-6a).
♦ Connect the power plug to a suitable electric socket.
♦ If the appliance is switched off: Switch it on by pressing the main switch (1).
♦ When it is turned on, the appliance starts in manual mode MA.
ADJUSTMENT OF THE SUCTION LEVEL
By simply pressing the button (A4) you can select the suction power according to the type of sur-
face you are cleaning.
♦ By increasing the suction power, the sections of the indicator (8C) increase.
♦ when reducing the suction power, the segments decrease.
♦ To stop the suction press the key (A4).
When the appliance is switched on again, the suction level will be that set last time it was
used.
IN CASE OF AUTOMATIC STOP
When the dirt sucked into the water container (20) reaches the maximum allowed level, suction will
be automatically blocked by the special safety float. This can also occur when the water in the con-
tainer is very dirty. In these cases, there is an increase in the motor rpm and after 10 seconds the ap-
pliance automatically pauses; the suction speed lights (8C) and the suction light (8E) flash. When this
occurs, the water must be replaced in the container.
Turn off the appliance and only restart it when the level of the water in the container has been re-
stored as described in the chapter “Emptying and cleaning the dirt container.”
Any immediate restarting when the appliance has gone into pause mode can damage the air outlet
filter.

♦ Turn on the boiler using the UP (4) key.
♦ The two indicators (8B) and (8F) start to flash.
♦ Select the steam pressure desired by pressing the UP (4) key again.
♦ In fact, every time the key is pressed, one of the steam pressure indicators goes on (8B) with a
resulting increase in the pressure of the steam being supplied.
♦ The DOWN (5) key performs the reverse function; in other words, every time the DOWN (5) key
is pressed there is a decrease in the steam pressure and the indicators go off (8B).
STEAM ADJUSTMENT
♦ After setting the level desired, wait until the indicators (8B) and (8F) remain lit. This means that
the pressure of the steam corresponds to the one actually selected and the appliance is ready to
be used.
♦ Press the button (A5) on the handle to dispense steam over the surface to be cleaned.
♦ This turns the indicator light (8D) on.
♦ To stop the steam flow, simply release the button (A5).
The handle of the flexible hose (A2) is fitted with a safety button (A3) to prevent the acci-
dental activation of steam delivery by children or people who do not know how it works. Should the
appliance be left momentarily unguarded, move the safety button (A3) to the off position. To con-
tinue steam delivery, move the switch back to its original position.
When first operating it, there may be some drops of water mixed with the steam due to
imperfect thermal stabilization. We therefore recommend that the first jet of steam be directed onto
a rag.
You can use the steam and suction features at the same time, by activating them both as descri-
bed in the preceding paragraphs.

♦ The programmed mode allows you to choose from 10 preset cleaning programmes.
♦ Every programme is developed to automatically dispense, in sequence, the amount of steam
and suction power necessary to clean a specific surface.
♦ In programmes that envisage the use of the two functions, steam and suction, the suction fun-
ction starts automatically after the steam function and lasts in proportion to that of the steam,
enabling the surface treated to dry.
♦ The times that steam and suction are supplied have been carefully calibrated for various types of
surfaces and have been developed on surfaces with standard dimensions.
♦ When cleaning very large areas, at the end of the cycle it is possible to immediately restart the
programme by simply pressing the A5 key in order to complete the cleaning of the entire surface.
♦ Otherwise it is possible to finish the job in manual mode (see paragraph SET THE SUCTION LE-
VEL IN MANUAL MODE for the suction function or paragraph SET THE STEAM LEVEL IN MA-
NUAL MODE for the steam function).
If using with a programme, remember that the suction speed and the quantity of steam are
reset and therefore it is not possible to adjust them manually.
PRE-SET PROGRAMMES
♦ To select a pre-set programme, press the SET key (3).
♦ when the indicator (8A) starts to flash, it is possible to select the desired programme with the UP
(4) and DOWN (5) keys.

The boiler turns on automatically in the 1 to 9 programmes. Wait until the indicators (8B)
and (8F) stay lit. This means that the steam pressure corresponds to the one necessary to use the
pre-set programme. The appliance is now ready to be used.
It will only be necessary to press the steam button (A5), except for the P0 programme which is suc-
tion only and starts by pressing the suction button (A4).
Based on the programme selected, there will be an alternating sequence of steam and suction.
In order to guarantee the maximum safety of the user, European Regulation 60335-2-54
envisages that the supply of steam must occur in a voluntary manner. Because of this, when the
programmes described were developed, it was not possible to automate the steam supply function.
PROGRAMME P1 - Rugs, Carpets
This programme combines steam and suction to wash, vacuum and sanitise rugs and carpets.
♦ Set the P1 programme described in the paragraph “Pre-set programmes”.
♦ Holding the steam button (A5) down, steam is supplied
♦ When releasing the button (A5) or after a maximum of 150 seconds, the suction starts automati-
cally to dry the treated surface.
♦ Suction stops automatically after a period of time in proportion to the time the steam was sup-
plied.
♦ If you need to restart the programme to complete cleaning the entire surface, just press the but-
ton (A5) again.
PROGRAMME P2 - Parquet, Terracotta
This programme is specifically for cleaning parquet and delicate floors. The function involves the
combined action of a delicate intermittent flow of steam with adequate suction force. Delicate sur-
faces must always be cleaned using the special parquet cloth (O3) provided, fitted onto the univer-
sal brush(C) (Fig. D).
♦Set Programme P2 as instructed in the paragraph “Preset programmes”.
♦ Holding the steam button (A5) down intermittent steam is supplied and at the same time suction
starts.
♦ Release the button (A5) to stop the steam flow, while suction will continue for a few seconds more
to dry the surface treated.
♦ If you need to restart the programme to complete cleaning the entire surface, just press the but-
ton (A5) again.
Please pay careful attention when cleaning wooden surfaces and treated terracotta floo-
ring with steam as prolonged use of steam may damage the wax, polish or colour of the surfaces
to be cleaned. We therefore recommend dispensing steam on these surfaces only for short periods
of time and suggest always using a cloth, avoiding direct steam being dispensed onto the surface.
In the case of old or particularly delicate floors, clean with cloth steamed previously, without dispen-
sing steam directly on the surface.
Before steaming surfaces, we recommend vacuuming up any hair or dust, using the
vacuum only.
