Before first use
•
Before using your iron with the steam function for the first time, we recommend that you operate it in a horizontal
position for a few moments, away from your linen. Operate the Power zone trigger several times under the
same conditions.
•
There may be a release of smoke, a harmless odour and a light spray of particles when you use your appliance
for the first time. This has no effect on the use of the iron and will disappear quickly.
Preparation
What water to use?
• Your appliance has been designed to operate using untreated tap water. However, it is necessary
to operate the Self-Clean function regularly in order to eliminate hard water deposits from the
steam chamber.
• Never use water containing additives (starch, scents, softeners, etc.), or water produced by
condensation (e.g. water from tumble-driers, refrigerators, air conditioners, rain water). The types
of water contain organic waste or mineral elements that can cause spitting, brown staining, or
premature wear of the appliance.
Filling the water tank
• Unplug your iron before filling it.
• Set the steam control to – fig.1.
• Take the iron in one hand and tilt it slightly, with the point uppermost.
• Open the water tank lid – fig.2.
• Fill the tank up to the “MAX” line – fig.3.
• Close the flap of the water tank.
Use
Adjust the temperature and the steam
• Set the thermostat control – fig.4, referring to the table below.
• The thermostat light comes on. It will go out when the soleplate is hot enough – fig.5.
RECOMMENDATIONS
• Select setting and save 20% energy compare with the maximum position.
• Your iron heats up quickly: so begin by ironing fabrics that are ironed at low temperatures first, then go on to those requiring a higher
temperature,
• If you turn down the thermostat, wait until the thermostat light comes back on before beginning to iron again,
• When ironing fabrics with mixed fibres, set the ironing temperature for the most delicate fibre. For delicate fabrics we recommend
testing the fabric first on an inconspicious place eg (inside the hem).
Spray Function (spray)
• Whether steam or dry ironing, you are able to use the spray button to dampen laundry to remove
stubborn creases – fig.6.
Obtain more steam
• Turn the thermostat to “MAX” or “•••”.
• Operate the Power zone trigger from time to time – fig.7.
• To avoid drips, leave an interval of a few seconds between operations.
Fill the tank up to the “MAX”.
Never fill the appliance by hol-
ding it directly under the tap.
Do not remove the anti-scale
valve to fill the water tank.
If your water is very hard, it is
possible to mix tap water with
store-bought distilled or demi-
neralised water in the following
proportions : - 50% tap water,
- 50% distilled or demineralised
water.
= STEAM ZONE
In order to avoid water dripping from
the iron onto the linen:
- Turn off the steam when ironing silk
or synthetic fabrics.
- Set it at the minimum position for
wool.
Make sure that there is water in
the tank before using this button.
