Operation and maintenance
UK
Remove all packaging of the device.
Check if the voltage of the appliance corresponds to the main voltage of your home.
Rated voltage : AC220-240V 50Hz.
Anti-calk system
A special resin filter inside the water reservoir softens the water and prevents scale build-up in
the plate. The resin filter is permanent and does not need replacing.
Please note:Use tap water only. Distilled and/demineralised water makes the “Zero-Calc” anti-
calc system ineffective by altering its physicochemical characteristics.
Do not use chemical additives, scented substances or decalcifiers. Failure to comply with the
above-mentioned regulations leads to the loss of guarantee.
Anti-drip system
With the anti-drip system, you can perfectly iron even the most delicate fabrics.
Always iron these fabrics at low temperatures. The plate may cool down to the point where no
more steam comes out, but rather drops of boiling water that can leave marks or stains. In
these cases, the Anti-drip system automatically activates to prevent vaporization, so that you
can iron the most delicate fabrics without risk of spoiling or staining them.
General instruction
When using the iron for the first time, you may notice a slight emission of smoke and hear
some sounds made by the expanding plastics. This is quite normal and it stops after a short
time. We also recommend passing the iron over an ordinary cloth before using it for the first
time.
Preparations
Soft the laundry to be ironed according to the international symbols on the garment label, or if
this is missing, according to the type of fabric.

Fabric not to be ironed
Start ironing the garments requiring a low temperature.
This reduces the waiting times (the iron takes less time to heat up than to cool down) and
eliminates the risk of scorching the fabric.
Steam ironing
Filling the reservoir
- Check that the plug is disconnected from the socket.
- Move the steam selector (3) to “0” [Fig. 1].
- Open the lid (2).
- Raise the tip of the iron to help the water enter the opening without overflowing.
- Slowly pour the water into the reservoir using the special measure (15) and taking care not to
go over the maximum level (about 300ml) indicated by “MAX” on the reservoir [Fig. 2].
- Close the lid (2).
Selecting the temperature.
- Put the iron in a vertical position.
- Put the plug in the socket.
- Adjust the thermostat knob (11) according to the international symbol on the garment label
[Fig. 3]. The plate temperature control light (9) indicates that the iron is heating up. Wait until
the plate temperature control light goes off before ironing.
Warning: during ironing, the plate temperature control light (9) comes on at intervals, indicating
that the selected temperature is maintained. If you lower the thermostat temperature after
ironing at a high temperature, do not start ironing until the plate temperature control light
comes on again.
Selecting the steam.
The quantity of steam is regulated by the steam selector (3).
Move the steam selector to a position between minimum and maximum depending on the
quantity of steam required and
the temperature selected [Fig. 1].
Warning: the iron gives off steam continuously only if you hold the iron horizontally. You can
stop the continuous steam by placingthe iron in a vertical position or by moving the steam
selector to “0”. As indicated on the thermostat knob (11) and in the initial table, you can only
use steam at the highest temperatures. If the selected temperature is too low, water may drip
onto the plate.
Selecting Shot-steam and steam when ironing vertically.
Press the shot-steam button (5) 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 [Fig. 4].
By pressing the shot-steam button at intervals you can also iron vertically (curtains, hung
garments, etc.) [Fig. 5].
Warning: the shot-steam function can only be used at high temperatures. Stop the emission
when the plate temperature control light (9) comes on, than start ironing again only after the
light has gone off.
Dry ironing
To iron without steam, follow the instructions in section “steam ironing”, leaving the steam
selector (3) on position “0”.
Spray Function
Make sure that there is water in the reservoir. Press the spray button (4) slowly (for a dense
spray) or quickly (for a vaporized spray) [Fig. 6].
Warning: for delicate fabrics, we recommend moistening the fabric beforehand using the spray
function (4), or putting a damp cloth between the iron and the fabric. To avoid staining, do not
use the spray on silk or synthetic fabrics.
