Using Your Steam Station
continued...
NOTE:
Ensure the steam iron
remains on the steam station rest
when hot and when not in use.
Do not place the steam iron on
any other surface when not
in use.
NOTE:
Do not place the steam
station near a heat source or
direct sunlight.
WARNING:
The soleplate
of the iron must be
placed on the iron
rest correctly to avoid
damaging the iron rest.
Ensure the steam iron is
on no steam setting and
locked in position when
placed on the iron rest.
2.
Hold the steam iron with the
soleplate facing away from you.
To activate Normal steam, press
the steam control
button
once
and will illuminate on the iron
display. The steam station will
vibrate slightly and the water
pump will emit a humming sound
while the iron is steaming; this is
normal. A continuous, normal rate
of steam will release.
WARNING:
To extend
the life of the pump on
your steam station, do
not operate the steam
function for more than 10
minutes continuously.
NOTE:
This steam station uses
an internal pump to generate
steam in the main body and
pushes to the iron. The pump
will make an audible humming
noise whenever a steam mode
is selected. The noise for High
steam will be slightly greater
than Normal as the pump
increases performance. This is
normal.
3.
To activate High steam, press
the steam control button again
and will illuminate. The steam
iron will release a continuous,
higher rate of steam.
4.
Gently press the soleplate onto
the material to steam iron.
5.
Once finished, press
the steam
control button until illuminates.
The steam will stop automatically.
Dry Ironing
Dry ironing with IdealTemp makes
ironing simple as you do not have to
adjust the temperature for different
fabrics.
Dry ironing can be used on most
garments, as long as the garment can
be ironed according to its textile care
labelling. It is recommended that you
test the dry iron on a small piece of
fabric before use. Ensure the fabric to
be dry ironed is in reach of the steam
iron.
1.
Once the steam station is fully
heated, unlock the steam iron
from the steam iron rest.
2.
Press the steam control button
until it is set to .
3.
Iron as required.
NOTE:
Do not iron over metal
parts such as fastenings and
buttons.
Tips to Vertically Steam
Garments
• Ensure that there is sufficient
ventilation behind the garment
being steamed; this will prevent
any moisture building up that could
otherwise result in mould or mildew
or damage surfaces.
• Check that all pockets are empty
and all cuffs and hems are down.
Hang the fabric on a hanger and
slightly stretch the fabric to make
the steaming process easier.
• Select High steam and move the
iron in a slow up and down motion,
across the whole garment focusing
on creases.
Steam Ironing
The steam iron is designed to be
used on material laid on a flat, level
surface. It can also be used in an
upright position for hanging fabrics.
Ensure the fabric to be steamed is in
reach of the steam iron.
IMPORTANT:
Before
steam ironing, ensure
that the garment can be
steam ironed according
to its Textile Care
Labelling.
1.
Once the steam station is fully
heated, unlock the steam iron
from the steam iron rest by
pressing the steam iron lock/
release button. (See Fig. 2). The
locking mechanism will release
and the steam iron can be easily
pulled away from the iron rest.
