• When the iron is in use, the iron thermostat light on the iron comes on
and goes off according to the soleplate temperature requirement
without this having any effect on the use of the appliance.
• To obtain steam, press on the steam control button under the iron
handle and keep it pressed -
fig.5. The steam will stop when you release
the button.
• Always spray starch onto the reverse side of the fabric to be ironed.
Setting the temperature
• Iron temperature setting:
- Start with the fabrics to be ironed at a low temperature (•) and finish
with those which need higher temperatures (••• or Max).
- Mixed fibre fabric: set the ironing temperature to the setting for the
most delicate fabric.
- Woollen garments: press repeatedly on the steam control button -
fig.5 to obtain short bursts of steam, without placing the iron on the
garment itself.
I
f you put your thermostat in the “min” position, the iron does not become hot.
Dry ironing
• Do not press the steam control button under the iron handle.
Vertical steam ironing
• Set the iron temperature control dial to the MAX position.
• Hang the garment on a coat hanger and hold the fabric slightly taut with one hand.
As steam is very hot : never attempt to remove creases from a garment while
it is being worn, always hang garments on a coat hanger.
• Holding the iron in a vertical position, tilted slightly forwards, press repeatedly on
the steam control button -
fig.5 (underneath the iron handle) moving the iron from
top to bottom -
fig.6.
Refilling the water tank
• When the red "water tank empty" light starts flashing, it means that you have no more steam.- fig.16.
The water tank is empty.
• Unplug the steam generator and open the flap on the tank.
• Pour in untreated tap water up to the max mark -
fig.4.
• Replug the generator. Press the “RESTART” button on the control panel - fig.17. to continue ironing. When the
green light stops flashing, the steam is ready.
Maintenance and cleaning
Cleaning your generator
• Do not use detergent or descaling products for cleaning the soleplate base-
unit.
• Never hold the iron or the base unit under the tap.
• Regularly clean the soleplate with a damp, non-metallic washing up pad.
• Clean the plastic parts of the appliance occasionally with a soft cloth.
To prime the steam circuit, either before
using the iron for the first time, or if you
have not used the steam function for a
few minutes, press the steam control but-
ton several times in a row, holding the iron
away from your clothes. This will enable
any cold water to be ejected from the
steam circuit.
Recommendations : for fa-
brics other than linen or
cotton, hold the iron a few
centimetres from the gar-
ment to avoid burning the
fabric.
Do not place the iron on a metal sup-
port.When taking a break from ironing,
always place the iron on the iron rest
plate of the unit. It is equipped with
non-slip pads and has been designed to
withstand high temperatures.
