taking care not to exceed the maximum

level -

fig. 5.

it “clicks” into place.

completely and remove the steam cord

from its housing-

socket with an earth pin-

fig.7.

USE

4 • Switching on your steam

generator

• Press on the on / off switch - fig. 8, it

begins flashing. The green light located

on the control panel flashes

• When starting, and regularly while it is

being used, your steam generator's electric

pump injects water into the boiler. It makes

a noise but this is quite normal.

•

The steam generator and the iron are ready

for use when the steam indicator light is on

and the iron light goes out.

5 • Operating the control

panel

•

Flashing green light -

fig. 8

: the water is

heating up in the boiler.

•

Continuous green light -

fig. 10

: steam is

ready for use.

•

Flashing red light -

fig. 13

: the tank is

empty.

• The

“Calc Away System” or the “boiler

rinse" orange indicator flashes -

fig. 15

or fig. 21

(according to model) : the

collector / boiler needs to be rinsed.

6 • Using your steam

generator

• Place the iron’s temperature control - fig.

to the type of fabric to be ironed (see

table below).

• The iron temperature control light turns

on. Important: whenever you start using

your iron and whenever you reduce the

temperature during use, the iron is ready

for use when its indicator light goes out

and when the green light located on the

control panel comes on and remains on.

• During use, when you increase the

temperature of the iron, you can start

ironing immediately.

• ECO Mode: Your steam

generator has an ECO mode function

which uses less power whilst still

guaranteeing a sufficient steam output for

you to iron your garments properly.

In order to use this function, once the

thermostat of your iron has been correctly

set (see table above), press on the ECO

button located on the control panel.

The ECO mode can be used on all types of

fabrics, nevertheless for very thick or very

creased fabrics we recommend that you

deactivate ECO mode (by pressing the

ECO button again) to guarantee the best

results.

• During ironing the iron indicator light

switches on and off according to heating

requirements but this has no effect on

use.

The first time the appliance is used,

there may be some fumes and a slight

smell this is not harmful and will quickly

disappear.
