1. Place your steam generator on a stable, horizontal heat-resistant surface.
2. Ensure that your appliance is disconnected and cold.
3. Unscrew the boiler cap.
4. Using a water jug, fill with one litre of tap water
1 .
5. Fill the boiler, taking care that the water does not spill over.
If this occurs, remove the excess water.
6. Replace the boiler cap, screwing on tightly.
Your generator has been designed to operate using tap water. However, if your water is very
hard, mix it 50 % tap water 50 % distilled water.
Do not use water from clothes dryers, scented or softened water, water from refrigerators,
batteries or air conditioners, pure distilled water or rain water;These contain organic waste
or mineral elements that become concentrated when heated and cause spitting, brown staining
or premature wear to your iron.
The water to use in your iron:
Types of water to be avoided:
BE CAREFUL
• The first time the appliance is used, there may be some fumes and smell but this is not harmful.
They will not affect use and will disappear rapidly.
Using your generator:
1. Connect your generator to a socket with an earth connection and switch on.
2 Press the On/Off switch( O/I).The “steam ready” indicator turns on and the boiler heats up.

.
During ironing the iron’s thermostat light and the steam indicator will go on and off according to the
temperature control.
3 - STEAM IRONING
1. Set the iron’s temperature control slide to the type of fabric to be ironed 3 .
2. The iron indicator light turns on.
Be careful: the generator and the iron are ready to use when both the iron’s thermostat light and the
“steam ready” indicator go out.
If necessary, also adjust the steam output control dial (on the base) accordingly eg less steam for lower
temperatures 4
(depending on the model).
It will be effective after a few minutes.
