Warning:
The steam emitted is very hot. Danger of scalding!
Note:
The appliance may give out some smoke when using it for the first time. It is a technical phenom-
enon that will cease after a short while.
Note:
- After turning the appliance on or after a long pause, direct the first steam jet toward the air or toward
a piece of cloth but not on the garment to be ironed, so that any condensed water still in the iron may
be expelled without staining the garment.
- After the first steam jet the pressure slows down rapidly. It is not a fault. This is due to the emission
of the air that entered the boiler during the filling.
After ironing
- Leave the ironing board on for 10 minutes to dry any condensed water.
- Turn the ironing board off (on/off switch (7)).
- Pull the plug out of the mains socket.
- Let the appliance completely cool down.
- Remove the iron cord support (8).
- Put the iron on the iron-rest mat (2).
- Acting on the height adjustment lever (13) lower the ironing board.
Note:
do not entangle the power cord.
- It is possible to place the ironing board upright with the steam generating unit downward.
- Always make sure the ironing board do not slip or overturns. Store the appliance in a dry place away
from the reach of children.
5. Setting the temperature
To steam-iron, always set the iron temperature control (5) on steam position, otherwise the temperature
is too low, the steam condenses and water may drip from the soleplate. The steam position is in the
sector between “••” e “•••”. Within this sector it is possible to steam-iron any fabric.
Note:
the ironing symbols on the garment labels refers to dry ironing only (see page 14) and shall not
be observed when steam ironing. In case of very delicate fabrics it is recommended to try ironing in a
hidden part of the garment or place a piece of cloth on the garment.
