1a. Unscrew the patented safety cap (
5
) and fill the
boiler with about 0.9 litres of water using the
special funnel (
9
) making sure that it does not
overflow (fig. 1).
Normal tapwater can be used. However, as wa-
ter by its nature contains limestone, which may
cause build-up of limescale in the boiler, in hard
water areas we recommend the use of our nat-
ural-base decalcifier Kalstop FP 2003.
2a. Screw the cap fully and carefully. Make sure the
patented safety cap (
5
) is fully and correctly
screwed on, otherwise you may experience
steam escaping from the cap.
3a. Connect the power cable into an earthed power
supply of the correct voltage.
4a. Switch on the boiler and iron by pressing the
switches (
2
) and (
4
) (fig. 2).
NOTE:
during the filling operation, be careful that
the water does not overflow as it may come out and
wet the surface where Vaporella is laid.
WARNING:
Do NOT under any circumstances put
or leave the funnel in the water filling aperture of
the appliance when the appliance is connected to
the mains electricity supply. Danger of burns!

STEAM IRONING
1b. Set the iron temperature on the “COTTON -
LINEN” position (fig. 3), by turning the dial (
1
).
2b. Wait until the boiler switch (
2
) and the “Iron
heating” indicator light (
3a
) switch off (about 15
minutes). Press the button (
3
) on the iron to
make steam come out of the holes on the sole-
plate. Releasing the button, the steam stops.
NOTE:
during initial operation of the iron, a few
drops of water mixed with steam may come out
of the soleplate until the temperature stabilizes.
It is advisable to direct the first jets of steam on-
to an old cloth until a uniform stable jet of steam
is obtained.
REGULATION OF THE STEAM FLOW
(Only VL Anti-shine - VL Easy compact -
VL Easy Professional)
3b. By turning the steam regulation control (
10
) you
can vary the quantity of steam according to the
kind of textile to be ironed (more or less deli-
cate).
You can increase the steam flow by turning the
knob in clockwise direction. Turning it in an anti-
clockwise direction reduces the steam flow.
CONTINUOUS STEAM JET BUTTON
(Only VL Easy Professional)
4b. In order to have a continuous steam jet, move
the button (
11
) forwards. Steam will keep on
coming out, even releasing the steam request
button. To interrupt the outlet, move the button
(
11
) backwards (fig.4).
DRY IRONING
1c. For dry ironing:
•
Plug the cable in.
•
Press the iron switch (
4
), leaving the boiler
switch (
2
) off .
•
Adjust the soleplate temperature by turning the
dial (
1
), set the temperature according to the
kind of fabric.
NOTE:
• The boiler switch (
2
) and the “Iron heating” indi-
cator light (
3a
) go on and off during usage. This
means that the heating element is working cor-
rectly to keep a constant pressure in the boiler.
This is a correct functioning, just continue ironing
as usual.
• If no steam comes out of the iron, check the fol-
lowing: the “Iron heating” indicator light (
3a
) is
OFF; there is water in the boiler.
