• When starting, and regularly while it is being used, your steam generator's electric pump injects water into the
boiler. It makes a noise but this is quite normal. You may also hear a clicking noise which is the steam valve
opening. Again this is normal.
Use
Steam ironing
• Set the iron temperature adjustment dial and the steam flow adjustment dial (ac-
cording to model) to the type of fabric to be ironed (see table below).
• The thermostat light comes on. Important: whenever you start using your iron and
whenever you reduce the temperature during use, the iron is ready for use when its
indicator light goes out and when the green light located on the control panel
comes on and remains on. During use, when you increase the temperature of the
iron, you can start ironing immediately, but make sure you only increase your steam
flow once the iron’s light has gone out.
• To obtain steam, press on the steam control button on the iron handle - fig.6 .
• The steam will stop when you release the button.
• Start with the fabrics to be ironed at a low temperature and finish with those
which need higher temperatures (••• or Max).
• To prime the steam circuit, either before using the iron for the first time, or if you
have not used the steam function for a few minutes, press the steam control but-
ton
- fig.6 . several times in a row, holding the iron away from your clothes.This will
enable any cold water to be removed from the steam circuit.
• For delicate fabrics, press the steam control button (on the handle of the iron)
intermittently to avoid possible water droplets appearing with the steam.
• If you are using starch, it should be sprayed onto the reverse side of the fabric
to be ironed.
• If you put your thermostat in the “min” position, the iron does not become hot.
ECO MODE (depending on model):
Your steam station iron has an ECO mode function which uses less power whilst still guaranteeing a sufficient steam
flow for you to iron your garments properly. In order to use this function, once the thermostat of your iron has been
correctly set (see table above), position the steam flow setting on the ECO segment
- fig.12 . The ECO mode can be
used on all types of fabrics, however, for very thick or very creased fabrics, we recommend that you use the maximum
steam flow for best results.
Dry ironing
• Do not press on the steam control button - fig.6 .
Vertical steam ironing
• Set the iron temperature dial and the steam flow adjustment
dial (according to model) to the max. position.
• Hang the garment on a coat hanger and hold the fabric slightly
taut with one hand. As steam is very hot : never attempt to
remove creases from a garment while it is being worn, al-
ways hang garments on a coat hanger.

Never un
the boile
while it’s
steaming
The steam station and
the iron are ready to
iron when the steam
ready indicator light
(according to model) is
lit and the iron thermos-
tat dial light has gone
out.
Mixed fibre fabrics : set the
ironing temperature to the
setting for the most delicate
fabric. Woollen garments :
press repeatedly on the
steam control button - fig.6
to obtain short bursts of
steam, without placing the
iron on the garment itself.
This will avoid making the fa-
bric shiny.
For fabrics other than linen or cotton, hold
the iron a few centimetres from the gar-
ment to avoid burning the fabric.
