Fabric not to be ironed
Start ironing the garments requiring a low temperature.
This reduces the waiting times (the iron takes less time to heat up than to cool down) and
eliminates the risk of scorching the fabric.
STEAM IRONING
FILLING THE RESERVOIR
Check that the plug is disconnected from the socket.
Move the steam dial (3) to “0” [Fig. 1] (please refer to page 8).
Open the lid (2).
Raise the tip of the iron to help the water enter the opening without overflowing.
Slowly pour the water into the water tank (10) using the water cup (14) and never
overfill the maximum level indicated by “MAX” on the reservoir [Fig. 2].
Close the lid (2).
SELECT THE TEMPERATURE
Put the iron in a vertical position.
Put the plug in the socket.
Adjust the temperature control dial (11) according to the international symbol on the
garment label [Fig. 3]. The indicator light (9) indicates that the iron is heating up. Wait
until the indicator light goes off before ironing.
Warning:
during ironing, indicator light (9) comes on at intervals, indicating that the
selected temperature is maintained. If you lower the temperature after ironing at a high
temperature, do not start ironing until the indicator light comes on again.
