Before leaving our factory all our products are
rigorously tested. This is the reason why your
VAPORELLA may contain some residual wa-
ter in the boiler.

• Pull up the self-refilling tank lid (1) (Fig. 1)
and fill the tank with 650 cc of water,
making sure it does not overflow. Close the
lid. Normal tapwater can be used. In hard
water areas we recommend the use of
KALSTOP, a special natural-base decalci-
fier which inhibits and breaks down lime-
scale, making it easy to remove just by
swilling out the tank with a little tapwater.
Do not use demineralised water alone, but
mix it with tap water as described above.
Never use distilled water or scented wa-
ter.
• Connect the cable plug to an earthed power
supply of the correct voltage.
• Press the ON/OFF switch (
2
); the ON indi-
cator light (
2a
), pressure indicator light (
5
)
and iron heating indicator light (
11
) will
come on (Fig.2).
• The sound emitted on switching on your ap-
pliance and periodically during use, is due
to the water refilling system and is quite
normal.

Check the manufacturer’s label on the gar-
ment, and interpret the symbol on the label as
follows:
• For
STEAM
ironing, set the iron tempera-
ture to its maximum travel on the “COTTON
- LINEN” steam position (fig.3), by turning
the dial (
7
).
NB Set at its maximum, do NOT set
against the picture of iron on the dial (7)
.
Most fabric types, other than delicates can
be STEAM-ironed at this temperature,
please consult the garment label. If you
want to DRY iron, set the dial (
7
) to the re-
quired temperature for the fabric, as shown
on the dial.
NB fabric indications on the dial are for
DRY ironing, for STEAM ironing set at
maximum travel as explained above.
• Wait for both the pressure indicator light (
5
)
and the iron heating indicator light (
11
) to
go out (about 3 minutes). Push the button
(
10
) on the iron to release bursts of steam
from the holes on the soleplate. Release
the button and the steam flow stops.
NOTE:
during initial operation of the iron, a
few drops of water mixed with steam may
come out of the soleplate until the tempera-
ture stabilises. It is advisable to direct the
first jets of steam onto an old cloth until a
uniform jet of steam is obtained.
• By turning the steam flow control knob (
6
)
you can vary the quantity of steam accord-
ing to the kind of textiles to be ironed (more
or less delicate). You can increase the
steam flow by turning the knob in clockwise
direction. Turning it in an anticlockwise di-
rection reduces the steam flow (fig.4). We
suggest the maximum emission for heavy
textiles like jeans and linen, medium for cot-
ton, minimum for light delicate textiles.
•
(*)
In order to have a continuous steam jet,
move the button (
10a
) forwards. Steam will
keep on coming out, even releasing the
steam request button. To interrupt the ou-
tlet, move the button (
10a
) backwards
(fig.5).
