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 holding 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
demineralised 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.
