Only slightly pedal to get the best sound out of the right hand, wich requires not so much pedalling. Else of that, no pedal.

thanks for your suggestions friends

Disagree.  See his pedal markings, or use the ones in either the Henle or the Paderewski Edition.

I personally see it as monstrous waves rather than the plink plink that other people seem to like. 

But practice without pedal so you can get it clean and add pedal when it's ready.  Good luck!
