Read the care label on your garment
before setting the temperature of the iron.
x
If you don’t know the fabric of your
garment, first iron an invisible part of your
garment and determine a correct ironing
temperature for it.
x
In order to prevent bright stains that may
form on synthetic fabrics such as silk, iron
on the reverse side of the fabric. To
prevent stain formation, do not use the
spray feature.
Steam ironing
x
Set the desired steam level by pushing the
continuous steam adjustment button (6),
between the spray and steam buttons,
backwards.
x
When using steam ironing, ensure that the
temperature setting button (2) falls within
the range marked for steam. When the
thermostat light switches off, it means that
the base temperature has reached the
correct level to generate steam.
Dry ironing
x
In order to make use of dry ironing, you
should bring the steam setting knob (6) to
the off position. Having water in the iron
would be advantageous; you may use the
spray button when necessary.
Shock steam
x
During ironing, in order to remove
tenacious creases, activate strong steam
by pressing on the shock steam button (7)
3-4 times in 5-second intervals.
x
When you start to iron, shock steam may
not emit during the first few presses. In
order for shock steam to function, the
temperature setting button (2) should be
at ••• or a higher level.
x
You can iron creased parts of garments
with extra steam power by pressing the
shock steam button (7) during steam
ironing. However if this process is
maintained without an interruption, water
may also emit from the iron base (3) along
with the steam.
Operation
Filling the water reservoir
x
Always unplug the appliance. Pull the
steam adjustment knob (6) forwards to the
off position.
x
Open the water refill lid (5) on the iron. Fill
the water.
x
Close the water refill lid (5).
x
Even if you will iron your garments without
steam; water should be available in the
appliance in order to use the water spray
(4) when you need it.
x
Do not fill the water reservoir with perfume,
vinegar, laundry starch, lime removers or
other products or chemicals which shall
facilitate the ironing process.
x
If your tap water is excessively limy, we
recommend you to use a mixture of tap
water with potable water.
Setting the temperature
x
After you plug in your iron, set the
temperature according to the type of your
fabric by means of the temperature setting
button (2). Make sure the iron stands in a
vertical position until it becomes ready for
ironing.
x
Increase the temperature of the appliance
by turning the temperature setting button
(2) clockwise. If steam ironing will be made
use of, the temperature setting button
should be in the range which falls within
the steam mark.
When setting the temperature of your
appliance, we recommend you to consider
the following table.
