Using Your Steam Iron:
STEAM IRONING
Filling the Reservoir:
1. Check that the plug is disconnected from the socket.
2. Move the steam knob B to "O" [Fig. 1].
3. Raise the tip of the iron to help the water enter the opening without
overflowing.
4. Slowly pour the water into the reservoir using the special measure and
taking care not to go over the maximum level (about 170ml) indicated by
"MAX" on the reservoir.
Selecting the Temperature:
1. Put the iron in a vertical position.
2. Put the plug in the socket.
3. Adjust the temperature knob (H) according to the international symbol on the
garment label [Fig. 3]. The power light (E) indicates with a red light that the
iron is heating up. Wait until the power light turns green before ironing.
Warning: during ironing, the power light comes on at intervals, indicating that
the selected temperature is maintained. If you lower the selected temperature
after ironing at a high temperature, do not start ironing until the power light
comes on again.
Selecting the Steam:
The quantity of steam is regulated by the steam knob (B).
1. Turn the steam knob to a position between minimum and maximum
depending on the quantity of steam required and the temperature selected.
Warning: the iron gives off steam continuously only if you hold the iron
horizontally. You can stop the continuous steam by placing the iron in a vertical
position or by moving the steam knob to "O". As indicated on the steam knob
(H) and in the initial table, you can only use steam at the highest temperatures.
If the selected temperature is too low, water may drip onto the plate.
Selecting Shot-Steam and Steam when Ironing Vertically:
1. Press the shot-steam button (C) to generate a powerful burst of steam that
can penetrate the fabrics and smooth the most difficult and tough creases.
Wait for a few seconds before pressing again [Fig. 4].
2. By pressing the shot-steam button at intervals you can also iron vertically
(curtains, hung garments, etc.) [Fig. 5].
