Page 6: Dry Ironing
Warning! To avoid damaging the pump, never operate the appliance without any water in the tank, even for dry ironing. Do not add any additives or chemicals (such as for example, amides, starches, perfume or other); Otherwise, the warranty may be revoked. The possible presence of water, condensate or moisture in the tank indicates only that the appliance has been tested. If it proves necessary to add water while ironing, always turn off the iron and unplug the power cord before filling the tank with water. Switching on the appliance Before you turn on the appliance, make sure there is sufficient water inside the tank. It is possible that at the first use of iron there are spills of white powder from the plate;... -
Page 7: Vertical Ironing
SUGGESTIONS Check that on the tissue there is a label with directions for ironing and compare the symbol on the label with the following table. If there is no label with instructions, but you know the type of material, follow the instructions below. Note that the table refers to fabrics not treated with sizing agents or similar products; if they have been, you can also iron at a lower temperature. When you change the temperature by turning the thermostat knob (J), the indicator light (H) will flash indicating that the temperature has not yet been reached. Wait that the indicator light (H) turns off before dispensing steam. Divide the articles to be ironed according to the types of material: wool with wool, cotton with cotton, etc. Because the iron heats up much more quickly than it cools down, it is advisable to start with those fabrics which require lower temperatures and move on to those which require progressively higher temperatures. If the material is made up of more than one type of fibre, always set the temperature to the fibre which requires less heat. • For example, if the material is made up of 70% synthetics and 30% cotton, set the temperature control to position ( ) (see table) without steam, that is, the temperature for synthetic fabrics. Label Ironing Kind of fabric Thermostat instructions Synthetic fabrics: Acetate Acrylic • Viscose Poliammide (Nylon) Viscose (Rayon) Silk •• Wool Cotton ••• Linen The mark on the label means do not iron If you do not know the composition of the article to be ironed, choose a part of the article which will not be seen. Do a test ironing on this part to establish the appropriate temperature (always start with a relatively low temperature and work up until the ideal temperature is reached). Pure (100%) wool articles can be ironed with the iron set to one of the steam positions. To avoid pure wool, silk and synthetic materials becoming shiny, it makes good sense to iron them on the reverse side. For other materials, especially velvet, which can become shiny very easily, cover them with a cloth and iron in one direction only, using light pressure. The iron must be kept constantly moving over the fabric. VERTICAL IRONING This special ironing procedure serves to remove creases from curtains, fabrics, etc. Set the ironing temperature by turning •••... - Page 8 Warning! Never immerse the appliance in water or other liquids. Warning! Check the state of the power cable of your iron on a regular basis before using it, and if it is damaged, take it to the service centre closest to you to have it replaced only by specialised personnel. Cleaning the soleplate and shell Warning! Do not use abrasives for cleaning the soleplate. Try and keep the soleplate smooth: avoid contact with metal objects. Any deposits and other residue on the soleplate can be removed using a cloth soaked in a water and vinegar solution. Clean plastic parts with a damp, non-abrasive cloth and dry them with a dry cloth. Self clean system To prolong the life of your iron, we recommend that this procedure be carried out at regular intervals (once or twice a month). Fill the water tank for a quarter using the measuring cup (P) provided (Fig. 5). Fill the tank up to the level marked MAX. Put the iron on its iron rest (O). Plug into the mains socket. Make sure the steam adjustment selector is set on “0”. Position the temperature adjustment knob on “max”. Let the iron heat until the indicator light (H) turns on for the second time.
