ENGLISH
•
The iron heats up faster than it cools down.
For this reason, it is recommended to iron the
items which require low temperature first (for
instance, synthetic fabrics). After that, start iron-
ing 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 60% polyester and 40%
cotton, it should be ironed at temperature used
for polyester ironing «•»).
•
If you cannot define the fabric structure, find a spot
that is inconspicuous when the item is being worn
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 slight pressure.
•
To avoid appearance of glossy spots on synthetic
and silk fabrics, iron them backside.
SETTING THE IRONING TEMPERATURE
•
Place the iron on its base (9).
•
Insert the power plug into the mains socket.
•
Turn the knob (11) to set the required ironing tem-
perature: «•», «••», «•••» or «MAX» (depending
on the type of fabric), the indicator (7) will light up.
•
Once the temperature of the soleplate (13) reach-
es the set point, the indicator (7) will go out and
you can start ironing.
Note:
•
If you are ironing at high temperature but you
need to switch to lower temperature, wait until
the soleplate temperature decreases and the
pilot lamp (7) lights up, and only then you may
start ironing. While steam ironing it is necessary
to set the ironing temperature «•••» or “MAX”.
WATER SPRAY
•
You can dampen the fabric by pressing the water
spray button (5) several times.
•
Make sure that there is enough water in the water
tank (10).
DRY IRONING
•
Place the iron on its base (9).
•
Insert the power plug into the mains socket.
•
Set the continuous steam supply knob (3) to the
position
– the steam supply is off.
•
Turn the knob (11) to set the required ironing tem-
perature: «•», «••», «•••» or «MAX» (depend-
ing on the type of fabric), the indicator (7) will
light up.
•
Once the temperature of the soleplate (13) reach-
es the set point, the pilot lamp (7) will go out and
you can start ironing.
• After you finish ironing, set the temperature con-
trol knob (11) to the «OFF» position.
• Pull the power plug out of the mains socket and
let the iron cool down completely.
STEAM IRONING
While steam ironing it is necessary to set the ironing
temperature «•••» or «MAX». The iron is provided
with an anti-drip valve that stops water supply if the
soleplate temperature is too low; it prevents dripping
from the soleplate openings (13). During heating and
cooling of the iron soleplate, you will hear charac-
teristic clicks of the anti-drip valve opening/closing,
which indicates its normal operation.
•
Place the iron on its base (9).
•
Set the continuous steam supply knob (3) to the
position
– the steam supply is off.
•
Insert the power plug into the mains socket.
•
Make sure that there is enough water in the water
tank (10).
•
Turn the knob (11) to set the required ironing
temperature: «•••» or «MAX», the indicator (7)
will light up.
•
When the soleplate (13) reaches the set tem-
perature, the pilot lamp (7) will go out, you can
start ironing.
•
Turn the continuous steam supply knob (3) to the
position
, steam will start going out from the
soleplate (13) openings.
•
After you finish ironing, set the temperature con-
trol knob (11) to the position «OFF», and the con-
tinuous steam supply knob (3) to the position
– steam supply is off.
•
Pull the power plug out of the mains socket and
let the iron cool down completely.
ATTENTION!
If the steam is not constantly supplied during opera-
tion, check whether the temperature control knob
(11) is set properly and there is water in the water
tank (10).
BURST OF STEAM
The burst of steam function is useful for ironing folds
and can only be used at high ironing temperatures
(when the iron temperature control knob (11) is set to
the position «•••» or «MAX»).
•
When pressing the burst of steam button (4) steam
will go out of the iron soleplate more intensively.
Note: To avoid water leakage from steam openings,
press the burst of steam button (4) with an interval
no less than 4-5 sec.
