CLEANING
Please note: before cleaning the iron in any way, make sure that the
appliance plug is not connected to the socket.
Any deposits, starch residue or size left on the plate can be removed
using a damp cloth or an unabrasive liquid detergent.
Avoid scratching the plate with steel wool or metallic objects.
The plastic parts can be cleaned with a damp cloth then wiped over with
a dry cloth.
SELF-CLEANING
To keep the steam vents free of any build up ,about once a month follow
these instructions.
-
Fill the water tank below the MAX line (14 )
-
Plug in the iron
-
Turn the thermostat knob (10) to MAX and place iron on its heel
rest. Allow it to heat until the temperature-ready light (6) goes o u t
and comes on again.
-
Unplug the iron and hold over a sink with the soleplate facing down..
-
Move the selector to ”calc clean”, Be careful, as hot water and steam
will come out of the steam vents [Fig. 4]., Continue to hold
t h e
selector in the “alc clean” [Fig. 6], Position until all the water
h a s
e m p t i e d o r u n t i l y o u f e e l a l l m i n e r a l d e p o s i t s h a v e b e e n
flushed. If necessary, rock iron side to side and front to back..
-
When finished, release the selector, stand the iron on its heel rest
and plug it in, Heat for about 2 minutes to dry out any remaining
water.
HOW TO PUT IT AWAY
- Disconnect the plug of the iron from the socket.
- Empty the reservoir by turning the iron upside down and gently
shaking it.
- Leave the iron to cool down completely.
- Roll up the power cord with the rewinder [Fig.7].
- Always put the iron away in a vertical position.
DVICE FOR GOOD IRONING
We recommend using the lowest temperatures with fabrics that have
unusual finishes (sequins, embroidery, flush, etc.).
If the fabric is mixed (e.g. 40% cotton 60% synthetics), set the
thermostat to the temperature of the fibre requiring the lower
temperature.
If you don’t know the composition of the fabric, determine the suitable
temperature by testing on a hidden corner of the garment. Start with a
low temperature and increase it gradually until it reaches the ideal
temperature.
Never iron areas with traces of perspiration or other marks: the heat of
the plate fixes the stains on the fabric, making them irremovable.
The size is more effective if you use a dry iron at a moderate temperature:
excess heat scorches it with the risk of forming a yellow mark.
To avoid marking silk, woolen or synthetic garments shiny, iron them
inside out.
To avoid marking velvet garments shiny, iron in one direction (following
the fibre) and do not press down on the iron.
The heavier the washing machine is loaded, the more garments come out
creased. This also happens when the spin drying revolutions are very
high.
Many fabrics are easier to iron if they are not completely dry.
For example, silk should always be ironed damp.
