indicator dial (
F
) to the position “COTONE -
LINO”. For dry ironing set the temperature con-
trol dial according to the fabric to be ironed as
indicated on the dial.
3d. Wait three to four minutes for the indicator (
R
) to
go out indicating that the sole plate of the iron
has reached the correct temperature.
4d. Press the steam request button on the iron (
R
)
to allow the steam to exit. Releasing this button
stops the steam flow. At first you may find that
the steam contains some water globules and we
recommend that the first jet of steam is there-
fore played onto an old cloth, and is not directed
onto the garment to be ironed.
For dry ironing do not press the steam request
button (
R
).
5d. In order to have a continuous steam jet, move
the button (
U
) forwards. Steam will keep on
coming out, even if you release the button. To in-
terrupt the outlet, move the button (
U
) back-
wards.
6d. The iron can also be used in a vertical position
e.g. for removing creases from curtain, clothing
etc.
IMPORTANT
• Do not leave the iron unattended whilst con-
nected to the mains.
• Iron only on heat resistant surfaces and on sur-
faces that allow the steam to escape e.g. mesh
ironing boards.
• ATTENTION: if you iron sitting down, do not place
your legs under the ironing board, the steam can
cause burns.

• For cleaning leather, wood or delicate fabrics es-
pecially dralon, velvet and other pile surfaces,
consult the manufacturers instructions. Clean
only by using the hand gun at a safe distance to-
gether with a soft cloth and always do a test on a
non visible part of the item first or on a sample.
Allow the test area to dry completely before ob-
serving results and effects on surface or colour
before proceeding to clean further areas, ensur-
ing that exactly the same distance and technique
are applied as for the test area. If in doubt, and
on sensitive surfaces like fabrics, leather and
wood it is always better to ask advice from your
Steam Cleaner dealer.
• For cleaning wood surfaces (furniture, doors etc.)
take great care as a too long application of the
steam could alter the waxed appearance, the
shine or the colour of the surfaces cleaned. We
therefore recommend you apply the steam on
such surfaces only for brief periods or to clean
these surfaces using a cloth first held in the
steam.
• Please pay particular attention while cleaning
brick floors: a too long application of steam could
damage wax, brightness or colour of these sur-
faces.
• Delicate surfaces (e.g. synthetic materials, lac-
quered surfaces etc.) we recommend that the
small brush should always be covered with at
least two cloths to reduce the intensity of the
steam, and (on machines with steam variation
control) with the steam set at low level.
• If cleaning glass surfaces in particularly low tem-
peratures preheat the glass using the hand gun
from about 50 centimetres distance from the sur-
face to be cleaned.
• For care of your plants vaporise at a minimum
distance of 50 centimetres.

STEAM GUN (2)
The steam gun can be used directly on all spots re-
quiring a stronger, closer treatment without connect-
ing the brushes. The more resistant the stain, the
closer you should hold the gun; the steam pressure
and temperature being higher at the source. You
should however always wipe with a dry cloth (or a
slightly abrasive sponge-if the spot is a difficult one
to remove) after using the gun.
The steam gun is particularly efficient at:
- breaking down rug and carpet stains before they
are treated with the large brush;
- cleaning stainless steel surfaces, panes, mirrors,
enamelled surfaces;
- cleaning hard-to-reach corners, such as stairs, win-
dow sills, door posts;
- cleaning window shutters, heaters, car interiors;
- spraying plants (from a distance);
- removing odours and creases from clothes.
To reach higher points, the steam gun can be con-
nected to one or both extension tubes.
LARGE BRUSH (8)
To wash floors, put a clean, dry kitchen cloth under
the brush and swing back and forth without applying
any pressure. Use the other side of the cloth when
the first one is impregnated with dirt. Use the brush
directly without the cloth on particularly dirty or in-
crusted areas and in spaces between the tiles:
swing the brush sideways to detach the dirt. Highly
obstinate stains may require a steam gun treatment
before the brush and cloth are used (an old bath
towel is an ideal cloth) . The same procedures apply
to ceilings and vertical surfaces, like wallpaper: in
this case the cloth can easily be fastened around the
brush and held in place by the 4 clips (
9
) on the
brush itself. Smooth cotton cloths are suitable for
the treatment of glass surfaces: fasten the cloth
around the brush then pass it over the window pane
