When first used, the iron may give out a little smoke: this transitory effect is perfectly normal and will disappear
very soon.

the garment to be ironed, deliver some shots of steam into the ground to stabilize it. The steam jet stops when the button is
released. If the steam supply button (H) is operated continuously for more than 30 seconds, drops of water may come from
the steam holes in the plate of the iron. It is recommended that the button (H) is used for shorter periods.
The boiler is fed automatically by means of a pump that at each filling is activated for a few seconds by generating a normal
