7. STEAM IRONING

Before steam ironing any garment, check
that the fabric is designed for this kind of
treatment. The appliance works with
normal tap water. If the water in your
area is very hard (hardness level over
27º F), we recommend the use of pure
distilled water.
1. Place the unplugged iron on a stable,
heat-resistant surface.
2. Fill the water deposit (See "Filling the
deposit").
3. Turn the temperature selector (2) to
"MIN" (Fig. B).
4. Place the iron in an upright position,
resting it on the support base (10).

The pilot light (4) will come on. When
this pilot light switches off, the iron will
have reached the selected temperature.
The pilot light will turn on and off at
regular intervals during the ironing
process, indicating the cycles of the
thermostat. Remember that if you
change from a higher to a lower
temperature, the pilot light (4) will
remain off until the temperature of the
base has dropped to the selected level,
at which point it will come on again
6. Slide the steam control knob (7) to one
of the steam iron positions (fig. D). Slide
the knob forwards for a greater quantity
of steam, and backwards for less steam.
Hold the iron in a horizontal position
and the steam outlets will begin to
expel steam. If no steam is produced,
lightly tap the iron base against the
ironing board. Setting the iron in an
upright position, resting on the support
base, will interrupt the steam
expulsion.

while ironing, always unplug the iron
beforehand.
This function will only work if there is
water in the deposit. Press the spray

of sprayed water to dampen dry or
difficult-to-iron fabrics such as linen,

slightly will help remove stubborn
creases. The spray option is also useful for
dampening accidental creases created

nozzle (6).
Note: The first time you use your iron, you
may have to press the spray button a few
