ENGLISH
from damage if it is connected to the mains with
higher voltage.
Note: While the first switching on the heating ele-
ment of the iron burns, therefore occurrence of
foreign smell and a small amount of smoke is pos-
sible, it is normal.
FOLDABLE HANDLE (3)
Before using the iron, lift the handle (3); to do this,
press and hold the lock (8) lift the handle, release
the lock (8).
WATER SELECTION
Use tap water to fill the tank. If tap water is hard,
it is recommended to mix it with distilled water in
proportion 1:1, if tap water is too hard, mix it with
distilled water in proportion 1:2.
Note: You can use special ironing water instead of
distilled water.
FILLING THE WATER TANK
Before filling the tank with water, make sure that the
unit is switched off and unplugged.
–
Set the temperature control knob (5) to the
«min» position, and the continuous steam sup-
ply knob (2) to the position «
».
–
Open the water inlet lid (1).
–
Pour water into the water tank (10) and then
close the lid (1).
Notes:
•
Do not fill the water tank (10) with scent-
ed liquids, vinegar, starch solution, descaling
reagents, chemical agents etc.
•
Do not exceed the «max» mark (11).
•
If you need to refill water during ironing, first
switch the iron off and unplug it.
IRONING TEMPERATURE
–
Always check the recommended ironing tem-
perature indicated on the tag before ironing.
–
If there is no tag with recommendations for iron-
ing, but you know the type of fabric, use the
following table to determine the proper tem-
perature.
Symbol
Fabric type (temperature)
•
Synthetics, nylon, acrylic, polyester
(low temperature)
••
Silk/wool (medium temperature)
•••
Cotton, linen (high temperature)
max
Maximum temperature
–
This table is only valid for smooth materials.
Fabrics of other types (crimped, raised etc.) are
best ironed at low temperature.
–
Sort items by ironing temperature first: synthet-
ics to synthetics, wool to wool, cotton to cot-
ton etc.
–
The iron heats up faster than it cools down. For
this reason it is recommended to begin iron-
ing at low temperature (for instance, synthetic
fabrics).
–
After that, start ironing at higher temperature
(silk, wool). Cotton and linen items should be
ironed last.
–
If an item is made of mixed fabrics, the iron
should be set to the lowest temperature (for
instance, if an item is made from acrylic and
cotton, it should be ironed at temperature used
for acrylic ironing «
•
»).
–
If you cannot define the fabric structure, find a
place that is hidden while wearing and select
the ironing temperature experimentally (always
start with the lowest temperature and raise it
gradually until you get the desired result).
–
Corduroy and other fabrics that become glossy
quickly should be ironed strictly in one direction
(in the direction of the pile) with little pressure.
–
To avoid appearance of glossy spots on syn-
thetic and silk fabrics, iron them backside.
DRY IRONING
–
Place the iron on its base (7).
–
Insert the power plug into the mains socket.
–
Set the continuous steam supply knob (2) to the
position «
» (continuous steam supply is off).
–
Set the desired ironing temperature by turn-
ing the knob (5): «
•
», «
••
», «
•••
» or «max»,
depending on the type of fabric; the pilot lamp
(6) will light up.
–
Once the soleplate (12) reaches the set tem-
perature, the pilot lamp (6) will go out, you can
start ironing.
–
After you finish ironing, set the temperature
control knob (5) to the position «min».
–
Pull the power plug out of the mains socket and
let the iron cool down completely.
STEAM IRONING
Steam ironing is possible only if the temperature
control knob (5) is set to the position «
•••
» or
«max».
–
Place the iron on its base (7).
–
Insert the power plug into the mains socket.
–
Make sure that there is enough water in the
water tank (10).
