5 • Using your steam
generator
Place the iron’s temperature control ( fig.5 ) to
the type of fabric to be ironed and set the
steam output (
fig.6 ) - see table below. The iron
temperature control light turns on ( fig.7 ).
While ironing, the light on top of the iron and
the steam ready light turn on and off, as the
temperature adjusts without interrupting
ironing.To obtain steam, press on the steam
control button beneath the iron handle and
keep it pressed (
fig.8 ). The steam will stop
when you release the button.
Always spray starch on the reverse side of the
fabric to be ironed.
6 • The humid steam
(depending
on the model)
The humid steam button adds water vapour
to the steam output. Press 2 or 3 times on the
humid steam button (
fig.9 ) to obtain a more
powerful, heavier burst of steam:
• for ironing thicker fabrics,
• to eliminate creases,
• for powerful vertical steam ironing.
7 • Vertical steam ironing
Set the iron temperature control and the
steam output control dial (located on the
control panel) to the maximum position.
Hang the garment on a coat hanger and hold
the fabric slightly taut with one hand. Press
repeatedly on the steam (
fig.8 ) control button
(beneath the iron handle) moving the iron
from top to bottom (
fig.10 ).
8 • Dry ironing
Do not press on the steam control button.
9 • Fill the water tank again
When there is no more steam and the”Water
tank empty” light flashes: water tank is empty
(
fig.11 ). Stop the generator by pressing the
on/off switch and disconnecting the plug.
Open the water tank filler cover. Using a
water jug, fill with maximum 1 litre of water.
Fill the boiler, taking care that the water does
not spill over (
fig.1 ).
Iron temperature control setting: Start with
fabrics to be ironed at a low temperature
and finish with those which need higher
temperatures. Each time you change fabrics,
wait for he light to turn off. Mixed fibre
fabrics: set the ironing temperature to the
setting for the most delicate fabric. Woollen
garments: press repeatedly on the steam
control button to obtain short bursts of
steam, without placing the iron on the
garment itself. This will avoid making the
fabric shiny. Steam output control dial
setting: Thick fabric: increase the steam
setting. At a low temperature: set the steam
output control dial to the low position. For
delicate fabrics(•), press the steam control
button (under the handle of the iron)
intermittently to avoid possible water
droplets appearing with the steam.
As steam is very hot: never attempt to
remove creases from a garment while it is
being worn, always hang garments on a coat
hanger. For fabrics other than linen or cotton,
hold the iron a few centimetres from the
garment to avoid burning the fabric.
ATTENTION: Use the humid steam function
very carefully because of the exceptional
power of steam that may cause burns.
Recommendations: To prime the steam
circuit, either before using the iron for the
first time, or if you have not used the steam
function for a few minutes, press the steam
control button several times in a row,
holding the iron away from your clothes.
This will enable any cold water to be removed
from the steam circuit.

Do not place the iron on a metal support.
When taking a break from ironing, always
place the iron on the iron rest plate of the
unit. It is equipped with non-slip pads and
has been designed to withstand high
temperatures.
If this occurs, remove the excess water.
