•
When the pilot light turns off, the set temperature has been
reached and the iron is ready to use.
•
During ironing, the pilot light on the iron automatically switches
on/off as the thermostat maintains the set temperature (you may
continue ironing during this process).
•
Turn the steam control turning knob to the required position.
•
Steam is produced as soon as the iron in held horizontally.
•
Press the spray button to spray water on clothes, as often as required.
Note: When using the water spray function, ensure that there is
enough water in the water tank, and you may have to pump the
spray button serval times at first time you use the iron in order to
start the spraying function.
•
Press the burst of Steam button to generate a powerful burst of
steam that can penetrate the fabrics and smooth the most difficult
and tough creases. Wait for a few seconds before pressing again.
•
By pressing the Burst of Steam Button at intervals you can also
iron vertically (curtain, hung garments, etc.)
Note: The burst steam function can only be used at high
temperature. Stop the emission when the pilot light turns on, then
start ironing again only after the pilot light has turned off.
For ironing without steam, follow the instruction in section “steam
ironing”, however, the steam control turning knob should remain in
position “OFF” (no steam).
A special filter inside the water tank softens the water and prevents
scale build-up in the soleplate. The filter is permanent and does not
need replacing.
Note: Use tap water only. Distilled and demineralized water makes
the anti-calc system ineffective by altering its physicochemical
characteristics.
This iron is equipped with drip stop function: the iron automatically
stops steaming when the temperature is too low to prevent water
from dripping out of the soleplate.
With the anti-dripping system, you can perfectly iron even the most
delicate fabrics.
An electronic safety device will automatically switch the heating
element off if the iron has not been moved more than 30 seconds in
a horizontal position. If in a vertical position, this will happen after
8 minutes. To indicate that the heating element has been switched
off, the auto-off pilot light will start blinking.
•
When picking up the iron again, the auto-off pilot light will turn
off. The power pilot light will turn on. This indicates that the iron is
heating up again.
•
Wait for the power pilot light to turn off. Then the iron is ready for use.
