5 • Using your steam

generator

Place the iron’s temperature control (fig.5)to

the type of fabric to be ironed and set the

steam output (fig.6) - see table below.

The iron

temperature control light turns on

(fig.7

While ironing, the light on top of the iron and

the steam ready light turn on and off, as the

temperature adjusts without interrupting

ironing.To obtain steam, press on the steam

control button beneath the iron handle and

keep it pressed (fig.8). The steam will stop

when you release the button.

Always spray starch on the reverse side of the

fabric to be ironed.

6 • The humid steam (depending

on the model)

The humid steam button adds water vapour

to the steam output. Press 2 or 3 times on the

humid steam button (fig.9) to obtain a more

powerful, heavier burst of steam:

• for ironing thicker fabrics,

• to eliminate creases,

• for powerful vertical steam ironing.

7 • Vertical steam ironing

Set the iron temperature control and the

steam output control dial (located on the

control panel) to the maximum position.

Hang the garment on a coat hanger and hold

the fabric slightly taut with one hand. Press

repeatedly on the steam (fig.8) control button

(beneath the iron handle) moving the iron

from top to bottom (fig.10).

8 • Dry ironing

Do not press on the steam control button.

9 • Fill the water tank again

When there is no more steam and the”Water

tank empty” light flashes: water tank is empty

(fig.11). Stop the generator by pressing the

on/off switch and disconnecting the plug.

Open the water tank filler cover. Using a

water jug, fill with maximum 1 litre of water.

Fill the boiler, taking care that the water does

not spill over (fig.1).

Iron temperature control setting: Start with

fabrics to be ironed at a low temperature

and finish with those which need higher

temperatures. Each time you change fabrics,

wait for he light to turn off. Mixed fibre

fabrics: set the ironing temperature to the

setting for the most delicate fabric. Woollen

garments: press repeatedly on the steam

control button to obtain short bursts of

steam, without placing the iron on the

garment itself. This will avoid making the

fabric shiny. Steam output control dial

setting: Thick fabric: increase the steam

setting. At a low temperature: set the steam

output control dial to the low position. For

delicate fabrics(•), press the steam control

button (under the handle of the iron)

intermittently to avoid possible water

droplets appearing with the steam.

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. For fabrics other than linen or cotton,

hold the iron a few centimetres from the

garment to avoid burning the fabric.

ATTENTION: Use the humid steam function

very carefully because of the exceptional

power of steam that may cause burns.

Recommendations: To prime the steam

circuit, either before using the iron for the

first time, or if you have not used the steam

function for a few minutes, press the steam

control button several times in a row,

holding the iron away from your clothes.

This will enable any cold water to be removed

from the steam circuit.

Do not place the iron on a metal support.

When taking a break from ironing, always

place the iron on the iron rest plate of the

unit. It is equipped with non-slip pads and

has been designed to withstand high

temperatures.

If this occurs, remove the excess water.
