Pour no more than 1 liter/1.75 pints of tap water into the boiler (to the base of
the thread) and screw the cap firmly back on.
Using the steam generator
Plug steam generator into electrical outlet.
Press the on/off switch of the boiler unit.
The boiler ready indicator light will light up. This indicates that the water is
heating in the boiler.
As soon as the water has reached the steam temperature, the boiler ready
indicator will go off.
During ironing process, this light will go on and off according to heat
requirements.
The iron also has a pilot light. This light will come on when the iron is heating
up. Once it has reached the temperature setting it will go out. It is normal for
this light to go on and off.
Note:
The temperature of the water in the boiler is regulated automatically during ironing. If the boiler is
filled with
cold
water, it will take approx.
8 minutes
for the water to heat up
.
HINTS:
If only a little laundry is to be ironed we recommend filling the boiler with a smaller amount of warm
water. This will save time and energy.
When starting to iron or after a break in ironing, hold the iron away from the garment and press the
steam button to prevent the escape of water (condensed steam).
Refilling the boiler while in use
If when ironing
no steam
escapes from the iron, when the steam button is
pressed, the boiler may need to be refilled. First check that the iron is set in the
●●●
setting. This is the only setting that will generate steam. If set correctly,
the boiler may need to be refilled.
Ensure the boiler unit is turned off and unplugged.
Never
unscrew the safety cap while the iron is producing steam.
If there is any water left in the tank, wait for
1 hour.
If the tank is empty and no
steam escapes wait for
5 minutes.
Press the steam button to check that there is no residual steam left.
Slowly unscrew the safety cap.
Pour no more than 1 l / 1.75 pints of water into the boiler and screw the cap
firmly back on.
