build-up of limescale in the tank, in hard
water areas we recommend the use of our
natural-base decalcifier KALSTOP FP

2a. Connect the cable plug to an earthed
power supply of the correct voltage.
3a. Press the illuminated ON/OFF switch (

Check the manufacturer’s label on the gar-
ment, and interpret the symbol on the label as
follows:
STEAM IRONING
1b. Set the iron temperature to the “COTTON
- LINEN” steam position (fig. 4), by turning
the knob (
7
). For steam ironing, all types
of fabric can be ironed at this tempera-
ture.
2b. Wait for the steam pressure indicator light
(
5
) and the “iron heating” indicator light
(
10a
) to switch off (about 3 minutes). Push
switch (
10
) on the iron to make steam
come out of the holes on the soleplate.
Release the button and the steam will
stop (fig. 5).
NOTE:
during initial operation of the iron,
a few drops of water mixed with steam
may come out of the soleplate until the
temperature stabilizes. It is advisable to
direct the first jets of steam onto an old
clean cloth until a uniform stable jet of
steam is obtained.
3b. In order to have a continuous steam jet,
move the button (
10b
) forwards. Steam
will keep on coming out, even if you re-
lease the button. To interrupt the steam
flow, move the button (
10b
) backwards
(fig. 6).
4b. By turning the steam control knob (
6
) you
can vary the quantity of steam according
to the type of texile to be ironed (more or
less delicate). You can use this control to
increase the steam flow by turning in
clockwise direction. Turning the control in
an anticlockwise direction reduces the
steam flow (fig. 7). We suggest the maxi-
mum emission for heavy textiles like
jeans, medium for cotton and linen, mini-
mum for light textiles.
DRY IRONING
1c. For DRY ironing (without steam), adjust
the temperature by turning the knob (
7
),
setting it to the temperature required for
the fabric, as shown on the same knob.
When dry ironing, be careful NOT TO
PRESS THE STEAM RELEASE SWITCH
(
10
) on top of the iron, otherwise water
may leak from the soleplate of the iron.
NOTE:
• The steam pressure indicator light (
5
) and
the Iron heating indicator light (
10a
) go on
and off during usage. This means that the
heating element is working correctly to
keep a constant pressure in the boiler. This
ia a correct functioning, just continue iro-
ning as usual.
• If no steam comes out of the iron, check the
following: the Iron heating indicator light
(
10a
) is OFF; there is water in the boiler.
