IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
BEFORE FIRST USE
When using your iron, basic safety precautions
should always be followed:
•
•
It is normal for a small amount of smoke to be
produced the first time, this will quickly disap-
pear.
When using the steam function for the first
time, do not direct the steam towards the laun-
dry, as there could be debris from the steam
•
Make sure the voltage used corresponds with
the one indicated on the rating label.
Use the iron only for needed use as described
in the instruction manual.
•
Close supervision is necessary when any appli-
ance is used near children. Do not leave iron un-
attended while connected or on an ironing board.
Burns can occur from touching hot metal parts, hot
water or steam.
vents.
FILLING WITH WATER
•
Make sure that both the Steam Control turn-
ing Knob and Temperature Control Dial are in
“OFF” position.
•
•
Keep the iron out of reach of children.
The iron should never be left unattended while
it is connected to the mains supply.
Unplug the iron from the mains electrical sup-
ply before:
•
•
Hold the iron upright so that the water-filling
inlet is in a horizontal position.
•
Fill with water through Water Filling Inlet until
the water reach the “MAX” mark indicated on
the side of the iron, and never fill above this
mark.
1) Cleaning
2)Filling with water or emptying the water tank
3) Immediately after use
•
Never operate the iron with a damaged power
cord or plug, or after it has fallen or been dam-
aged in any way. To avoid the risk of electric
shock, do not disassemble the iron. Take it to
a qualified serviceman for examination and
repair.
SETTING TEMPERATURE
Follow the ironing instructions on the garment la-
bel. If there is no instruction but you do know the
kind of fabric, please consult the following table.
Note: If the fabric consists of various kinds of fab-
rics, always select the temperature required by the
most delicate fabrics.
•
•
Do not let the cord touch hot surfaces.
To protect against a risk of electric hazards,
do not immerse the iron in water or any other
liquid.
•
•
The iron must be used and rested on a stable
surface.
The iron is not to be used if it has been
dropped, if there are visible signs of damage
or if it is leaking.

STEAM IRONING
DRY IRONING

•
Place the iron in a vertical position and set the
For ironing without steam, follow the instruction in
section “steam ironing”, however, the steam con-
trol turning knob should remain in position “O” (no
steam).
temperature control dial at the minimum/low
heat setting.
Insert the plug into the socket, and then turn
the temperature control dial to the “high heat”
marking. The pilot light will come on, indicat-
ing that the iron is heating up.
ANTI-CALC SYSTEM
•
•
When the pilot light turns off, the set tempera-
ture has been reached and the iron is ready
to use.
A special filter inside the water tank softens the wa-
ter and prevents scale build-up in the soleplate. The
filter is permanent and does not need replacing.
Note: Use tap water only. Distilled and demineral-
ized water makes the anti-calc system ineffective
by altering its physicochemical characteristics.
During ironing, the pilot light on the iron au-
tomatically switches on/off as the thermostat
maintains the set temperature (you may con-
tinue ironing during this process).
Turn the steam control turning knob to the re-
quired position.
•
•
SELF-CLEANING
Steam is produced as soon as the iron in held
horizontally.
The self-cleaning feature cleans inside the sole-
plate, removing impurities. We recommend using
it every 10-15 days.
SPRAYING
•
Set the steam control turning knob to Position
O (no steam).
•
Press the spray button to spray water on
clothes, as often as required.
•
•
Fill the water tank to maximum level.
Set the temperature control dial to MAX and
wait for the pilot light to turn off.
Note: When using the water spray function, en-
sure that there is enough water in the water tank,
and you may have to pump the spray button sev-
eral times the first time you use the iron in order
to start the spraying function.
•
•
Pull the plug out of the socket and press the
self-cleaning button until the boiling water,
steam, impurities come out.
When the soleplate has cooled down, you can
clean it with a damp cloth
BURST OR VERTICAL STEAM IRONING
HOW TO CLEAN AND STORE
•
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.
•
After using, remove the plug from the socket,
lift the iron with the filling hole downwards
to empty the remaining water from the water
tank.
•
Insert the plug into the socket, and set the
Temperature Control Dial to “MAX” for 1-2
minutes to evaporate the remaining water,
and then unplug the iron and let it cool down
before storing it.
•
By pressing the Burst of Steam Button at in-
tervals 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.
