Using the iron
Steam ironing
1. Filling the reservoir
- Check that the plug is disconnected from the socket.
- Move the steam selector to “0”.
- Open the lid.
- Raise the tip of the iron to help the water enter the open-
ing without overflowing.
- Slowly pour the water into the reservoir using the special
measure and taking care not to go over the maximum level
(about 350ml) indicated by “MAX” on the reservoir.
- Close the lid.
2. Selecting the temperature
- Put the iron in a vertical position.
- Put the plug in the socket.
- Adjust the temperature according to the symbol on the
garment label. The temperature control light indicates that
the iron is heating up. Wait until the plate temperature con-
trol light goes off before ironing.
Warning: during ironing, the temperature control light
comes on at intervals, indicating that the selected tem-
perature is maintained. If you lower the thermostat tem-
perature after ironing at a high temperature, do not start
ironing until the temperature control light comes on again.
3. Selecting the steam
- The quantity of steam is regulated by the steam selector.
- Move the steam selector to a position between minimum
and maximum depending on the quantity of steam re-
quired 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 mov-
ing the steam selector to “0”. You can only use steam at
the highest temperatures. If the selected temperature is
too low, water may drip onto the plate.
4. Selecting shot steam / steam when ironing vertically
- Press the shot steam button 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.
- By pressing the shot-steam button at intervals you can
also iron vertically (curtains, hung garments, etc).
