WATER FILLING
When the water in the boiler is over, the lamp “no water” switches on (fig. 2 E). So MINI 5 has
to be switched off by disconnecting the plug; rotate the valve plug (fig. 3) of 360° and wait for
steam to go out completely. Unscrew the valve plug with care and wait a few minutes. Then fill
the boiler with water. Screw the valve plug again, connect the plug and wait for the boiler
lamp to switch off (fig. 2 D). Now the iron is ready again.
