Vertical steam ironing
• Set the iron temperature control slide and the steam output control dial (located on the
control panel) to the MAX position.
• Hang the garment on a coat hanger and hold the fabric slightly taut with one hand.
As steam is very hot: never attempt to remove creases from a garment while it
is being worn, always hang garments on a coat hanger.
• Holding the iron in a vertical position, tilted slightly forwards, press repeatedly on the steam
control button (underneath the iron handle) moving the iron from top to bottom -
fig.9.
Refilling the water tank
When the red “tank empty” indicator light turns on, there is no more steam -
fig.10.
The water tank is empty.
• Unplug the generator. Open the water tank filler cover-
fig.4.
Fill the water tank up without exceeding the MAX level -
fig.5.
• Close the water tank filler cover.
• Replug the generator in. Press the “restart” button on the control panel -
fig.11.
to
continue ironing. When the green light stops flashing, the steam is ready.
Recommendations: for fabrics
other than linen or cotton,
hold the iron a few
centimetres from the
garment to avoid burning the
fabric.
Maintenance and cleaning
Cleaning your generator
• Do not use detergent or descaling products for cleaning the soleplate base-unit.
• Never hold the iron or the base unit under the tap.
• Empty and rinse the removable water tank
• Regularly clean the soleplate with a damp, non-metallic washing up pad.
• Clean the plastic parts of the appliance occasionally with a soft cloth.
Rinsing the boiler
• To extend the efficient operating life of your boiler and avoid scale particles on your
linen, your generator is equipped with an orange “boiler rinse” warning light that
flashes on the control panel after about 10 uses -
fig.12.
• If the orange “boiler rinse” warning light flashes, you can continue ironing normally but
remember to rinse the boiler first, the next time that you use it.
• Before proceeding, check that the generator is cool and unplugged for more than 2
hours.
With the rinsing accessory
• Use the accessory provided with the packaged product. It will make it easier to rinse
the boiler as the generator will need less handling.
• Your rinsing accessory has been designed to work on a wide range of taps. Choose the
seal (a or b) -
fig.13.
that is best suited to your tap.
• Place your steam generator on the edge of your sink, with the iron to one side,
standing on its heel.
• Unscrew anti-clockwise a quarter of a turn the boiler rinse cap cover -
fig.14.
• Using a coin, gently unscrew the boiler rinse cap -
fig.15.
• Place the plastic nozzle of the rinsing pipe into the hole of the boiler and turn gently to
the right until it locks. The outlet of this nozzle must be positioned over the sink -
fig.16.
• Attach the other end of the rinsing accessory to your untreated tap -
fig.17.
• Turn the tap on gently and gradually and let cold water run through the rinsing pipe
into the sink for about 1 minute -
fig.18.
• Switch off the tap and remove the rinsing pipe.
• Screw back and tighten up the boiler rinse cap with a coin.
• Put the boiler rinse cap cover back in place.
• The next time you use the generator, hold down the “restart” button to turn
off the orange light -
fig.11
.
OR without the rinsing accessory
• Place your steam generator on the edge of your sink, with the iron to one side,
standing on its heel.
• Unscrew anti-clockwise a quarter of a turn the boiler rinse cap cover -
fig.14.
• Using a coin, gently unscrew the boiler rinse cap -
fig.15.
• Holding your steam generator in a tilted position, and using a jug, fill the boiler with 1/4
litre of tap water -
fig.19
.
Caution! Above all, you must
not use descaling products to
rinse the boiler: they may
damage it. Before cleaning or
emptying your generator, it is
imperative that you leave it
to cool for more than 2 hours,
to prevent any risk of burns.
