EFFECTIS Iron temperature setting:

temperatures (••• or Max).
- Mixed fibre fabric: set the ironing temperature to the setting for the most delicate fabric.
• If you put your thermostat in the "min" position, the iron does not become hot.
• The thermostat light comes on.
Important: whenever you start using your iron and whenever you reduce the temperature during use, the iron
is fully ready for use when its thermostat light goes out and when the light located on the control panel stops
flashing and remains on. During use, when you increase the temperature of the iron, you can start ironing
immediately.
• While ironing, the light on top of the iron and the steam ready light turn on and off, as the temperature
adjusts without interrupting ironing.
• If you are in doubt about the type of fabric an item of clothing is made from, check the label.
*If you are ironing woolen garments, press repeatedly on the steam shot button without placing the iron on
the garment. This will avoid it becoming shiny.
ECO Mode : Your steam generator iron has an ECO mode function which uses less power whilst still
guaranteeing a sufficient steam flow for you to iron your garments properly. In order to use this function, once
the thermostat of your iron has been correctly set (see table above), press on the ECO mode button located on
the control panel. The ECO mode can be used on all types of fabrics, nevertheless for very thick or very creased
fabrics, we recommend that you use the normal steam flow for best results.

Dry ironing

Vertical steam ironing

Recommendations: for fabrics other than linen or cotton, hold the iron a few centimetres from the garment
to avoid burning the fabric.
• Hang the garment on a coat hanger and hold the fabric slightly taut with one hand.
• As steam is very hot: never attempt to remove creases from a garment while it is being worn, always hang
garments on a coat hanger.
• Holding the iron in a vertical position tilted slightly forwards, press repeatedly on the steam control button
(underneath the iron handle) moving the iron from top to bottom.
Refilling the tank during use

to exceed the «Max» level of the tank.
• Close the water tank filler cover.

remains on, the steam is ready.
