INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Warning!
Remove any labels and protections from the soleplate before using the appliance for the first time.
Place the appliance on a horizontal and stable surface. Use the handle (C) for moving the appliance (Fig. 2). After transport-
ing the appliance, put the handle in its housing (Fig. 3). To release and lift the handle simultaneously press the buttons (E)
on the sides (Fig. 4). The possible presence of water, condensate or moisture in the tank indicates only that the appliance
has been tested. The product functions with normal tap water.
The anti-scale cartridge purifies water from substances harmful to the iron, therefore it allows to use ordinary tap water. The
anti-scale cartridge must be replaced when the resins contained therein have completely changed colour. The replacement
cartridges are available at the sale points or in Authorized Service Centers.
Filling the tank before use
Warning!
Make sure the appliance is unplugged from the supply mains before filling the tank with water.
Press the release lever (H) under the handle and remove the tank (Fig. 5). Remove the anti-scale cartridge (B) from the tank
(Fig. 6). Fill the tank with cool tap water up to the level indicated by MAX (Fig. 5). Reinsert the anti-scale cartridge (Fig. 8).
NEVER fill the tank beyond the MAX level.
Never use pure demineralised water with the anti-scale cartridge inserted.
Warning!
Do not add any additives or chemicals (such as for example, amides, starches, perfume or other); Otherwise, the
warranty may be revoked.
Insert back the tank (Fig. 9). Press firmly until the tank is completely inserted, until it clicks, confirming the correct installation.
Switching on the appliance and first use
Before you turn on the appliance, make sure there is sufficient water inside the tank. Totally unwind the power cord.
Connect the appliance to the mains. On first use, after filling the tank, adjust the thermostat knob (I) over the symbol (
and wait that the indicator light (K) turns off. Press the steam output button (J) Fig. 12 until the iron produces steam (it will
take about one minute) Fig. 13.

very soon. On first use of the iron, try it on an old piece of cloth to remove any manufacturing residues.
Warning!
