Information about the water
This iron works with
untreated tap water. Never use water treated with filter cartridges
, since the
residues (ex. particles of activated carbon) may block the mechanic parts of the appliance.
Never add in water perfumes or other additives. Water with additives may damage the steam
generator with subsequent costs of cleaning and service. Hard water and a frequent use may
cause the formation of scale deposits in your steam generator. If you wish to slow down the
scale forming, we recommend to regularly rinse out your steam generator (see maintenance,
page 15).
3. Before starting the appliance for the first time
Always remember that an improper use of the electric current may be fatal. Please read the
warnings on pages 17-18 carefully and follow these safety instructions:
- Before filling the appliance with water always turn the appliance off and pull the plug out of
the socket.
- Never touch the iron soleplate when in use.
- The iron soleplate shall never touch the electric cord.
- Never aim the steam at persons.
- Clean the appliance only when unplugged and when it has completely cooled down.
Ironing station comes with a steam generating unit (22) and a steam iron (3) with semi-profes-
sional soleplate offering several advantages.
- unlike a “normal” iron, a semi-professional iron emits steam only at the tip. The great amount
of steam emitted “penetrates” easily in the several fabric layers well dampening the gar-
ments
- the back side of the soleplate immediately dry the linen
concentrated steam
emission
drying surface
Thanks to the combination of steam and drying surface the time of ironing reduces
remarkably.
