manual abstract
If the water in your area is very hard, mix half tap water with half distilled water. Do not use chemicals or detergents such as fragrances or scale removers in the water tank as this could cause damage. The appliance should be placed for use on a flat, stable, heat resistant surface. Steam ironing a) Before filling the water tank, make sure the steam regulator is in the position ("dry" position) (fig. 1). Make sure the power cable is unplugged from the mains socket. b) Open the cover of the water tank opening and pour the water into the iron (fig. 2) keeping the iron in a horizontal position. It is important that the iron is always unplugged from the mains every time you fill or top up the water in the tank. c) Plug the iron into the mains socket. d) Choose the segment of the temperature dial with the symbol for steam. Make sure the fabric to be ironed is suitable for steam ironing.When using the iron for the first time, run the iron over a spare piece of cloth several times. e) After these checks, select the required temperature by rotating the thermostat dial. f) The indicator light will come on to show the iron is on. After about a minute in the case of maximum temperature, the indicator light will go off showing that the iron is ready for use. g) Continuous steam delivery is obtained by positioning the steam regulator in the or position (to obtain more steam).Steam delivery ceases whenever the iron is placed in a vertical position on the rear rest (position recommended during pauses in ironing) or with the iron horizontal when the steam regulator is in the dry position. fig. 1 fig. 2 Note: On the back of the iron there is a useful guide giving information on the temperature to set (fig. 3) according to the garment being ironed: fig. 3 3 Steam iron F F fig. 4 fig. 5 G fig. 6 F F fig. 4 fig. 5 G fig. 6 Remember that the steam function can only be used when the thermostat is in the position. Dry ironing • Plug in the iron and select the temperature, if there is water in the tank, position the steam regulator on the dry position (fig. 1). • Wait until the indicator light goes off showing that the required temperature has been reached. • If the fabric to be ironed is slightly damp or you iron fast, you can use a higher temperature. If, on the other hand, the garments are dry or you iron slowly, use a lower temperature. Super steam (fig. 4) • Position the steam regulator on the dry position (fig. 1). • Place the thermostat dial on maximum.When the indicator light goes off, press the super steam button . For correct operation of the super steam function, you must wait a few seconds between one burst of steam and the next. Vertical ironing (fig. 5) Enables delicate garments to be steamed without resting them on the ironing board: pay attention to the temperature used to steam hanging fabrics. Position the steam regulator on the dry position. Rotate the thermostat dial clockwise as far as it will go (maximum steam position).When the indicator light goes off, place the iron in a vertical position and move it near the garment. Press the super steam button until the indicator light comes on again.Wait until the light goes off before continuing vertical ironing. Never direct the "vertical" steam jet at a garment hanging in a wardrobe or worn by a person. Vertical ironing should always be carried out with the garment hanging on a clothes stand and always away from other garments, elements, people and animals. Spray (fig. 6) If during ironing, you note particularly resistant creases or if your garment requires a higher level of dampness, you can use the spray. Make sure the tank contains water. Press the spray button repeatedly (fig. 6), directing the spray jet towards the parts of the garment to be dampened. Never use the spray when ironing silk as the drops of water could mark the fabric. Steam iron 4 After ironing To extend the working life of the iron, whenever you finish ironing, you are recommended to empty the tank as follows: • Unplug from the mains socket. • Open the cover and empty the iron, holding it point downwards and shaking it gently over a basin or sink. • To dry the remaining moisture, turn the iron on again with the thermostat dial in the maximum position for about two minutes with the steam regulator in the position. • Unplug from the mains socket and allow to cool. • Clean the plate with a dry cloth as traces of moisture could mark it. • Wind the power cable around the cable winder. • Store the iron in a vertical position. Maintenance and cleaning After use,always wait until the iron is cold before putting away.Allow to cool in a vertical position. Keep the surface of the plate clean. Do not rest or use the iron on zips, hooks, rings etc to avoid scratching the plate. Clean the plate with a damp cloth only, never use abrasives or solvents. Scale prevention system The appliance is fitted with a permanent resin scale filter in the tank. This filters the impurities and eliminates all scale residue, ...
