Press the boiler's switch (4) and wait for the water to start boiling (about 8 minutes). Next, press
switch (5) to turn on the iron and then select the desired temperature on the thermostat knob (9).
When the light (11) goes off, the set temperature has been reached and the iron is ready for use. It
takes about 8 minutes for the boiler to reach the optimum ironing pressure.
When the appliance is ready for use the steam pilot lamp (6) lights up.
When using the iron for the first time, iron a plain cloth first.
To start the steam, press the steam button (10). Release the steam button when steam is no longer
required. This appliance is also able to generate steam in a vertical position and can therefore be
used to refresh fabrics easily with a jet of steam.
ATTENTION : Never allow the steam to flow out of the iron whilst it is resting on the stand provided
(8). If the jet of steam decreases while you are ironing, the boiler tank is running out of
water.
ATTENTION : The boiler is always under pressure!
How to fill the boiler while the appliance is being used
To continue ironing, follow this instructions:
• Switch off the boiler (4). Select the desired temperature ”MIN” by turning the thermostat knob (9).
• Release the pressure left in the boiler, keeping the steam button (10)
on the iron pressed down
until no more steam comes out of the plate. Then switch off the iron (5).
• Unplug the power cord from the wall socket.
• Wait for the iron and the boiler to cool down.
• Unscrew the cap and wait a few minutes.
• Slowly pour 1 litre of water into the opening (fig.2) always using the funnel provided.
• Close the boiler and fully tighten the cap.
• Press the boiler switch(4).
• Wait for steam pilot lamp (6) to light up before continuing ironing.
CAUTION! Never attempt to open the cap while the boiler is under pressure. Never unscrew the
boiler cap when the appliance is connected to the outlet. The iron may smoke slightly when switched
on for the first time - this is normal and will soon cease. If the iron remains unused for a long period
of time (a few weeks), we suggest to press the steam button (10) for about 30 seconds with the iron
in horizontal position, as to clean the internal steam ducts, before you start your ironing session. It is
not necessary to completely fill the boiler tank for short ironing sessions. One measure (or less) of
water is sufficient as to reduce the waiting time and save electric energy.
