Using Your Steam Iron
Selecting the steam
The quantity of steam is regulated by the steam control switch.
Move the steam selector to a position between minimum and
maximum depending on the quantity of steam required and the
temperature selected.
Warning
:
The iron gives off steam continuously only if you hold the iron
horizontally. You can stop the continuous steam by placing the iron in a
vertical position or by moving the steam selector to “min”.
As indicated on the temperature control dial and in the initial table,
you can only use steam at the highest temperatures. If the selected
temperature is too low, water may drip onto the plate.
Burst or vertical steam ironing
Note:
The burst steam function can only be used at high temperature
and will not work effectively when the pilot light turns on. Do not
press the burst of steam button again until the pilot light turns off,
indicating the soleplate has reached temperature.
Press the shot-steam button to generate a
powerful burst of steam that can penetrate the
fabric and smooth the most difficult and tough
creases. Wait for a few seconds before pressing
again.
By pressing the burst of steam button at intervals
you can also iron vertically . This can be used to
iron items such as - curtains, hung garments, etc.
