• 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.
Vertical steam ironing
• Hang the garment on a hanger and hold the fabric slightly taut with one hand. The
steam is very hot, so you should always do this with the garment on a hanger – never
iron clothes which someone is wearing.
• Set the thermostat control to
“MAX”
–
fig.8.
• Operate the Power zone
trigger by pulsing –
fig.7
moving the iron from top
to bottom –
fig.9
.
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.
Hold the iron a few
centimetres from the fabric
to avoid burning delicate
fabrics.
Every five pulses return the
iron to a horizontal position.
