4 L Ecologico AS 810 ENGLISH Dear Customer, Thank You for choosing this Polti product. By choosing L'Ecologico, you have thought of your family's health because L'Ecologico is a friend to the environment, but an enemy of dust, pollen, mites and their allergens. Thanks to the EcoActive-filter, its green heart, it traps the dirt in the water which, when it is dirty, can be poured away without the risk of dust escaping into the air. With L'Ecologico Polti you can really relax, its filtering system of 8 layers Hepa filter retains 99,99% of the particles down to 0,3µ, therefore the exiting air is perfectly pure. In addition, EcoActive-Filter eliminates dusty bags and all the problems related to them. With L'Ecologico you can suck up dry dirt, or liquids, satisfying all your domestic cleaning needs. The full accessory set will allow you to face cleaning problems, solving them quickly and easily. The controls of the appliance are both on the body and on the handle. This allows you to choose at your pleasure how to operate. The use of the controls on the handle allows you to have all the functions at hand without bending down to make the necessary adjustments. Before using L Ecologico, read these instructions carefully. What is the EcoActive-Filter? The EcoActive-Filter is the green heart of L Ecologico and is composed of a revolutionary water filter. The EcoActive-Filter employs the natural purifying strength of water to catch the dirt, avoiding irritating contact with dust and harmful dispersion of dust into the environment. It is specifically the flow of water contained in the special filter and its bubbling that make cleaning operations with L'Ecologico so much more effective. What is the HEPA filter? L'Ecologico is more than a vacuum cleaner, it is also an air purifier. In fact, it is equipped with a special and very powerful HEPA filter, already used in professional applications where the maximum hygiene is necessary. It is able to retain 99,99% of the particles right down to 0,3µ, i.e. very thin dust, pollen, mites and other micro-organisms.

5 ENGLISH L Ecologico AS 810 CORRECT USE OF THE PRODUCT Fig. 1 This appliance is intended for use as an aspirator for solids and liquids according to the descriptions and instructions in this manual. It is recommended to read these instructions carefully and to keep them for future use. PREPARAT IIONS FOR USE Unhook the lever (5) under the handle (3) (fig.1) Lift the cover (4) and remove the water container (6) (fig.2) Take out the cage with the floater (17) (fig.3). Fill the container (6) with normal tap water until the MAX level indicator is covered as in fig.4. The quantity of water necessary is about 1,5 litres. Put the filter cage back in its initial position (fig.3) Close the cover (4) until it clicks shut. Insert the suction hose into the junction (fig.5) To clean floors, connect the steel telescopic tube (A) to the flexible hose. You have two brushes at your disposal: the Joker brush (B) and the universal brush (C). With the Joker brush you can clean all kinds of solid or liquid dirt and it is suitable for all surfaces. The universal brush is appropriate for polished parquet and, in the right position, for carpets and rugs. See the instructions at the "use of the universal brush" paragraph. Choose the most suitable brush and connect it to the telescopic tube. For correct length of the stainless steel telescopic tube, see the "use of the telescopic tube"paragraph. To clean other surfaces, choose the most suitable accessory and connect it to the junction. The telescopic tube is useful to reach difficult areas and can be used with all the accessories. Insert the battery into the remote control handle (M), as shown in the "how to replace the remote control battery" paragraph. USE OF THE TELESCOPIIC TUBE Fig. 2 Fig. 3 Fig. 4 MAX Fig. 5 Fig. 6 The tube is about 500 mm long when closed and about 1000 mm. at its maximum extension. To make it longer or shorter, move the lock as shown in fig.6 and extend or reduce to suit your height.

6 L Ecologico AS 810 ENGLISH AUTOMAT IIC CABLE W IINDER Fig. 7 Before storing the vacuum cleaner, rewind the power supply cable by pushing the button (2) as indicated in fig. 7. OPERAT IION Unwind the cable (13) until it is completely outside its Fig. 7bis storage compartment by pulling the plug towards you (fig. 7bis). Connect the plug to the mains. Push the mains On/Off switch (1) (fig.8), the first stage of the indicator lights (14) will start to flash. L'Ecologico is now in a "stand-by" position. Push the button (20), L'Ecologico will start to operate at minimum speed, the first indicator light (14) will become constant. Fig. 8 The power levels are four. We suggest you use at the minimum level for curtains, at the medium- low for couches, armchairs and pillows, medium-high for carpets, and high for floors and hard surfaces (ceramic, marble etc.) To increase the speed, push the button (21), each press on the button (21) will increase the motor power by one level. The increase by one level is indicated by the switching on of one stage of the indicator lights. By pushing the button (22), at each press the motor power will decrease and one stage will switch off. To take the appliance back to the "stand-by" position, push the button (20). To start vacuum cleaning again, push the button (20) again. L'Ecologico offers you the advantage to operate either by using the buttons on the machine body or on the remote control handle. Thus you can have all the functions at hand, without bending down. The buttons (20) (21) (22) on the remote control have the same functions as the buttons (20) (21) (22) on the machine body. Note: to make the remote control work outdoors, direct the two transmitters on the handle towards the appliance. DRY AND LIIQUIID VACUUMIING You can use the machine to suck up dust or liquids. If the water becomes very dirty, replace it as described in the "how to empty and clean the water container" paragraph. When the sucked up dirt reaches the maximum level in the water container (6), the suction is automatically blocked by the safety float (you will notice an increase in the motor revolutions). After 10 seconds the appliance will go automatically to pause and the four indicator lights will flash. To start cleaning again, proceed as shown in the "how to empty and clean the water container" paragraph, restoring the water level in the container.

7 ENGLISH L Ecologico AS 810 B IIOECOLOG IICO "Bioecologico" is available for sanitising while using the suction function. It is a scented antibacterial product with natural-based anti-allergenic substances. If it is added regularly to the water used to fill the water container (6) of the L ecologico, it will prevent the proliferation of bacteria and micro-organisms and inhibit the action of allergens. In addition to ensuring a sanitising action, "Biecologico" will eliminate smells due to the presence of dust in the water, leaving a pleasant smell of cleanness in the room. Use: Normally add 10 ml each time you fill the water-based filter. Bioecologico is sold in household appliance shops or direct from our authorised Assistance Centres. HOW TO EMPTY AND CLEAN THE WATER TANK ((6)) Switch off the appliance at the mains switch (1) and disconnect the power supply cable from the mains. This precaution also allows the reset of the operation of the appliance from the safety device. After sucking up liquids, be careful, when opening the cover, that no fluid remaining in the suction tube falls on the Hepa filter. Unhook the lever (5) which is under the handle (3) (fig.1) Lift the cover (4) and take out the container (6) (fig.2) Remove the filter cage (fig.3), empty the container tilting it towards the groove (fig. 9) and rinse it If you want to keep on vacuuming, restore the water level. Insert the filter cage back and put everything back in the appliance. Close the cover until it clicks shut. The appliance is now ready to be stored. Note: water remaining in the container does not damage the appliance but it is always better to empty it before storing L'Ecologico. One of the biggest advantages of L'Ecologico is the ability to store it clean, unlike vacuum cleaners with a dust container which are stored together with the dirt they have picked up. Fig. 9 USE OF THE FLEXO JOIINT ((II)) This special joint - Polti exclusive patent - allows to reach the most difficult areas without bending down. Insert the Flexo joint between the handle and the telescopic tube keeping the indentation on the front part of the handle. To change the inclination, turn the ring (Y) (fig.10) half way round. This way the joint is showing and it will allow you to change the angle of operation of the tube fig.10. When operations are over, put the joint back in its original position, covering it with the ring to lock it into position. Fig. 10 Y
