• The Boost function is deactivated auto-
matically after 15 minutes. The blue light
flashes to indicate that the Boost function
will turn off, then turns off.
• For steam output, press the steam control
below the iron handle - fig.11. The steam
stops when the control is released.
• If you are using starch, spray it on the
reverse side of the fabric to be ironed.
7 • Using the Precision Shot
• Your appliance comes with a Precision
Shot function: it allows you to make a
concentrated steam injection when iro-
ning difficult creases, intricate and
difficult access areas.
• To use this function, press fully on the
Precision Shot located on the top of your
iron as many times as necessary.
8 • Vertical steam ironing
• To iron a wool, cotton or linen garment,
select the fabric and press on the
"Boost/vertical steam" button for power-
ful vertical steam ironing.
• For delicate fabrics such as synthetics or
wool, it is not necessary to use the
"Boost/vertical steam" button, as the
"synthetics" and "silk" setting buttons are
sufficient for removing creases.
• Hang the garment on a coat hanger and
hold the fabric slightly taut with one
hand.
• Press the steam control button
- fig.11
repeatedly, moving from top to bottom -
fig.13.
Examples of how to use the vertical steam
ironing function:
• Removing creases from delicate fabrics
that you do not want to come into contact
with the hot iron
• Refreshing a shirt or suit just before put-
ting it on.
9 • Dry ironing
• Do not press the steam control button.
The Boost function can only be used
on the "Wool", "Cotton" and "Linen" po-
sitions. For other fabrics, there is no
need to use the Boost function as the
combinations of "Synthetic" and "Silk"
settings are sufficient.
Recommendation: when using for the
first time or if you have not used steam
for several minutes, press the steam
control repeatedly several times - fig.
11 holding it away from your linen.
This will enable any cold water to be
removed from the steam circuit.
Fabric selection: your iron heats up
quickly, start with fabrics that are iro-
ned at low temperatures and end
with those that require a higher tem-
perature. Please note, if you start by
ironing fabrics that require a higher
temperature, the appliance may take
some time to cool down. If you wish
to accelerate the process you can
activate the steam control, holding
the iron away from your linen to cool
it down more quickly. On each
change of fabric, wait for the lights to
stop flashing. If you are ironing
fabrics made from mixed fibres, set
the iron for the most delicate fabric.
For delicate fabrics(•), press the
steam control button (under the
handle of the iron) intermittently to
avoid possible water droplets appea-
ring with the steam.
When pausing during ironing, never
place the iron on a metal iron stand,
which could damage it, but on the rest
plate of the unit: it is fitted with non-
slip pads and has been designed to
withstand high temperatures.
ATTENTION! use the Precision shot
function carefully as the steam comes
out with exceptional force and could
cause burns.
As the steam produced is very hot, ne-
ver 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 away
so as not to burn the fabric.
