ATTENTION: Hot surface
If the appliance is hot, handle it carefully and do not
touch the hotplate.
• Do not modify or repair the appliance. In the event of any
anomaly in the appliance, do not use it and take it to an
authorised assistance service.
• Always unplug the appliance after use and before
assembling or removing parts, and performing any
maintenance or cleaning operations. Also unplug it in the
case of a power cut. The appliance must be switched off
before plugging or unplugging it into the mains
• Before using your CVG (Compact Vapor Generator), remove all the paper or plastic
bags, plastic sheets, cards and possible stickers that may be on the outside or inside
of the appliance that acted as handling protection or sales promotion material. Remove
the soleplate protector before using your CVG.
• Do not plug it in without checking that the voltage of the appliance is the same as your
home mains voltage.
• Take care that the cord does not touch the hot parts of the appliance.
• Check that the socket outlet has a suitable ground connection.
• To fill your CVG or fill it while ironing, follow the instructions in the "FILLING WITH
WATER" (fig. 1) , unplugging it and using the beaker provided.
• Do not plug your CVG in without water in the tank as this may cause irreparable
damage to the system.
• The appliance may emit a little smoke and a plastic smell during the first few minutes
of use. This is normal and will disappear quickly.
• The first few times you use it, some small white particles may be released; these
are totally harmless and do not stain. This is a relatively normal result of the
manufacturing processes.
• Do not spray "vertical" steam on a garment hanging in the wardrobe or on a person.
Vertical ironing must be done with the garment on a hanger and away from other
garments, elements or persons.
• When you finish ironing, always empty the water from the tank. If you want to drain it
while ironing, always unplug the appliance from the mains first.
