• To avoid halos around the stain it is advisable
to point the steam jet nearby the borders of
the stain first and then towards the center of it
gradually.
• Make sure that the stain has been completely
removed from the fabric before ironing it, as
the iron’s heat fixes the stain permanently.
• To obtain an even better result, it is advisable
to perform the cleaning operations on an iron-
ing table equipped with a suction board.
• DO NOT use the steam on bloodstains as
blood coagulates with heat thus fixing the
stain permanently.
• Should the stain persist, do not dry the item
before acting a second time. Should the stain
persist even after the second attempt, it is ad-
visable to contact a qualified dry cleaning
centre.
• A summary table accurately classifying the
types of stains in relation to the advisable
cleaning method is included as part of these
instructions (
TAB.2
).
• Always do a test on a non visible part of the
item first or on a sample.
• When dealing with coloured items, it is advis-
able to test the colour resistance on a section
of non visible material.
• Use moderately with silk items and acetate
based fibres.
• Never leave the gun within the reach of chil-
dren.
• It is recommended to disconnect the appli-
ance when it is not in use.

• Connect the steam gun to the generator as
described in paragraph “ACCESSORIES
CONNECTION”.
• Attach the appropriate accessory for the sur-
face to be treated, as described in “TIPS FOR
BETTER ACCESSORIES USAGE”
• Wait for the steam pressure indicator (
5
) to go
out. Push the steam request button (
21
) on
the steam gun to release bursts of steam. Re-
lease the button and the steam will stop.
NOTE:
during initial operation a few drops of
water mixed with steam may come out. It is
advisable to direct the first jets of steam onto
an old cloth until a uniform stable jet of steam
is obtained.

You can connect different types of accessories
to the steam gun according to the kind of sur-
face to be treated.
For correct connection of the accessories
proceed as follows:
• Hook the tooth which is at the bottom of the
accessories to the inside of the hose for
steam gun accessories (
20
), then turn it ac-
cording to the inclination you need until it is
completely locked (fig. 16).
1)
ATTENTION!!!
The accessories get hot du-
ring use, so be careful when you remove or
replace them, use a kitchen glove, or leave
them to cool down. Replace the accessories
only when the power supply cable is not con-
nected to the mains.
2) Before treating leather, special fabrics (espe-
cially draylon and velvet) or wooden surfaces
with steam, consult the manufacturer’s in-
structions and always proceed only after
carrying out a test on a hidden part or a sam-
ple. Allow the area treated with steam to dry
and then check whether any changes in co-
lour or deformations have occurred before
proceeding further. For extremely delicate
surfaces use the steam jet at a minimum
range.
3) When using the curtain-freshener accessory,
make sure to check the fabric manufacturers’
instructions on how to iron different fabrics.
In case of particularly delicate or valuable fa-
brics (velvet, brocade, etc.), it is necessary to
keep the accessory at a distance of at least
20 cm (8 inches) when delivering the steam.

Curtain freshener accessory (22) (Fig. 18)
• specially designed to iron curtains vertically
without removing them.
HOW TO USE IT:
Move the accessory
downwards in order to iron the curtains and to
eliminate creases or smells, the useful sponge
attached to the accessory will absorb any ex-
cess drops of steam.
To prevent the sponge wetting the curtains with
absorbed water, simply remove the sponge and
squeeze it out, then replace the sponge by reat-
taching to the accessory with velcro strips and
go on with ironing.
