Era mod. 2010 (v. 2.0)
13
2019
The ERA VAP is equipped with one pedal for vacuum and also one pedal for steaming.
The steaming function is used to give steam from the ironing surface to thick
garments.
After steaming has been completed it is recommended to activate vacuum to avoid
water stagnation on the ironing board and to dry the fabric dampened by steam.
For a good steaming, set the heating of the ironing surface to the maximum
temperature.
NOTE:
if steam is used frequently it is normal if some water exits from air discharge
of the motor.
The suction deviation damper (fig. 1–F), present only in the model Era Vap, must be
always open towards the right to allow the operator to vacuum both from the ironing
board and from the ironing arm. When you iron on the ironing arm and you want to
increase vacuum power on it, close the suction deviation damper (in this case the
vacuum is only on the ironing arm). Do not iron on the board with the suction
deviation damper closed because rings or stains could form due to lack of vacuum.
The ERA MAX VAP is equipped with three pedals: one for vacuum, one for blowing and
one for steaming.

BOILER DISCHARGE
Discharge the boiler at least once a week.
Connect the discharge tap (M 1/2" GAS attachment) to the drainage system by using
a thermo-insulated rigid tube (copper or steel). Alternatively, it is possible to
discharge the water into a heat-resistant tank.
Carry out the following procedures:
1. unplug the machine from the electricity grid after ironing has been completed;
2. wait half an hour after turning off the ironing board to allow the machine to cool
down (the ideal pressure for a safe discharge is 0,5 bar);
3. slowly open the discharge tap, located on the back of the machine, wait for all the
water to drain out and finally close the boiler discharge tap.
If the drained water still contains dirt, repeat the procedure until the water is clean.
Wear work gloves to avoid possible burns and pay attention to avoid splashing of hot
water onto the operator!
