ENGLISH

–

Check the unit for damages, do not use it in
case of damages.

–

Before switching the iron on, make sure that
your home mains voltage corresponds to the
iron operating voltage.

Note: While the first switching on, the heat-
ing element of the iron burns, therefore
occurrence of a foreign smell and a small
amount of smoke is possible, it is normal.

WATER SELECTION

Use tap water to fill the tank. If tap water is hard,
it is recommended to mix it with distilled water in
proportion 1:1, if tap water is too hard, mix it with
distilled water in proportion 1:2 or use distilled
water only.

FILLING THE WATER TANK

Before filling the iron with water make sure that
it is unplugged.

–

Set the temperature control knob (11) to the
«

OFF

» position and the continuous steam

supply knob (3) to the «0» position (steam
supply is off).

–

Open the water inlet lid (2).

–

Pour water into the water tank (10) and then
close the lid (2).

Notes:

•

Do not fill the water tank (10) with scented
liquids, vinegar, starch solution, descaling
reagents, chemical agents etc.

•

Do not exceed the “MAX” mark (12).

•

If you need to refill water during ironing,
switch the iron off and unplug it.

IRONING TEMPERATURE

–

Always check the recommended ironing tem-
perature indicated on the tag before ironing.

–

If there is no tag with recommendations for
ironing, but you know the type of fabric, use
the following table to determine the proper
iron temperature.

Symbol Fabric type (temperature)

•

Synthetics, nylon, acrylic, polyester
(low temperature)

••

Silk/wool (medium temperature)

•••

Cotton, linen (high temperature)

MAX

Maximum temperature

–

This table is valid only for smooth materials.
Fabrics of other types (crimped, raised etc.)
are best ironed at low temperature.

–

Sort items by ironing temperature first: syn-
thetics to synthetics, wool to wool, cotton to
cotton etc.

–

The iron heats up faster than it cools down.
For this reason it is recommended to begin
ironing at low temperature (for instance, syn-
thetic fabrics).

–

After that, start ironing at higher temperature
(silk, wool). Cotton and linen items should be
ironed last.

–

If an item is made of mixed fabrics, the iron
should be set to the lowest temperature (for
instance, if an item is made from acrylic and
cotton, it should be ironed at temperature
«

•

» suitable for acrylic).

–

If you cannot define the fabric structure, find
a spot that is inconspicuous when the item
is being worn and select the ironing tem-
perature experimentally (always start with the
lowest temperature and raise it gradually until
you get the desired result).

–

Corduroy and other fabrics that become
glossy quickly should be ironed strictly in one
direction (in direction of the pile) with slight
pressure.

–

To avoid appearance of glossy spots on syn-
thetic and silk fabrics, iron them backside.

DRY IRONING

–

Place the iron on its base (8).

–

Insert the power plug into the mains socket.

–

Set the continuous steam supply knob (3)
to the «
