IRONING
• Press button (14) on the iron for the steam jet: the steam will stop coming out when
you release the button.
• To use the continuous steam function, press the steam button (14) and at the same time
slide cursor (15) towards the cork handle. To disable this function, slide cursor (15) in
the opposite direction to the handle.
• With the iron held upright at a distance of about 20 cm you can use the jet of steam to
smooth out creases and freshen up clothes while they are hanging. Avoid carrying
out this operation on any worn garment as the steam is extremely hot and it is
possible to get burned.
• Before ironing delicate fabrics it is best to make trial run on a hidden piece e.g.
the hem.
• We advise you to iron more delicate fabrics needing low temperatures first, then
go on ironing more resistant fabrics needing higher temperatures.
• The amount of steam you want to use during ironing can be set via the steam
control dial (10): for more steam, turn the dial in a clockwise direction, for less
steam, turn the dial in a counter clockwise direction.
WARNING!
Some drops of water may leak out of the iron soleplate (13) when the first jet of steam
starts coming out; this is quite normal and is due to condensation forming inside the
iron-boiler connecting tube (6).
This will disappear with the following jets of steam. It is therefore not recommended to
point the first jet of steam directly on the item to be ironed. The iron must be used and
left at rest on a firm surface.
NO MORE WATER DURING USE
• When the water in the boiler is missing, the indicator lamp (9 ) will light on.
• Carefully follow the instructions given below to fill up the boiler again:
- Press the ON/OFF switch of the boiler (2) bringing it to the "OFF" position;
- press button (14) on the iron, until no more steam is being produced;
- unplug the appliance from the outlet;
- slowly unscrew the boiler cap (5) being careful of any possible residual steam;
- fill up the boiler following instructions given in the "HOW TO FILL THE BOILER WITH
WATER" paragraph;
- switch on the appliance again following the same instructions given in the "STARTING
UP" paragraph.
WARNING!
Always unplug the iron from the outlet before filling the boiler with water.
