filling the tank before use

Warning!

Make sure the appliance is unplugged from the supply mains before filling the tank with water.

The possible presence of water, condensate or moisture in the tank indicates only that the appliance has been tested. The 

product functions with normal tap water.

Press the release lever and remove the tank (Fig. 3). Open the tank removing the rubber cap (I). Fill the tank directly be-

neath the tap with cool tap water (Fig. 5).

Warning!

NEVEr fill the tank beyond the MAX level. Do not put vinegar, decalcifying products or other additives in the tank; 

Otherwise, the warranty may be revoked.

never use pure demineralized water.

Put the tank back in, paying attention to match the tank valve with the pin in the appliance seat (Fig. 6). Press the tank all 

the way down until it is completely inserted and check that it is correctly installed.

switching on the appliance

Place the appliance on a horizontal and stable surface. Totally unwind the power cord. Connect the appliance to the power 

supply, ensuring that the voltage indicated on the identification plate corresponds to your local power supply.

Before you turn on the appliance, make sure there is sufficient water inside the tank.

Press the button (L) to turn on the appliance. When first using the appliance after filling the tank, set thermostat knob (E) 

past the symbol (

•••

) and press steam supply button (H) Fig. 9, until the iron gives out steam (approx. 1 minute) Fig. 10.

When first used, the iron may give out a little smoke: this transitory effect is perfectly normal and will disappear 

very soon.

Warning!

Do not release steam when the iron is standing on its grille rest (B).

The boiler is now automatically filled by a pump which produces a noise (vibration) lasting a few seconds every time it is 

activated. Immediately after the vibration, a decrease of the steam emission could occur. This is perfectly normal, and a after 

a few seconds the steam output will be normal again.

If the iron is left inactive for a long time, before ironing it is recommended to hold it level and deliver a few shots of steam 

into the ground to stabilize the jet and eliminate any condensation.

filling the boiler during use

Warning

Always check the level of water in the tank while you are ironing.

Warning

Fill the tank up to the level marked MAX. Always turn off the appliance and remove the power cable plug from the 

socket-outlet before filling the tank with water.

If the tank remains without water, you will notice a vibration and a louder noise. Turn off the appliance by pressing the power 

on button and disconnect the plug from the electrical outlet. remove the tank. Fill the tank directly beneath the tap with cool 

tap water (Fig. 5).

dry IronIng

Warning!

To avoid damaging the pump, never operate the appliance without any water in the tank, even for dry ironing. Do not 

add any additives or chemicals (such as for example, amides, starches, perfume or other); Otherwise, the warranty 

may be revoked.

In order to dry iron, i.e. without steam, after connecting the appliance to the mains supply, simply turn on the appliance
