Dry Ironing - Champion CHSJ310 User Manual

Selecting Shot-steam and steam when ironing vertically.
1. Press the shot-steam button (6) 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].
Warning: The shot-steam function can only be used at high temperatures. Stop the emission when the plate temperature pilot

light (13) comes on, then start ironing again only after the light has gone off.

DRY IRONING

To iron without steam, follow the instructions in section "steam ironing", leaving the steam selector (3) on position "0".
Spray Function
Make sure that there is water in the reservoir. Press the spray button (4) slowly (for a dense spray) or quickly (for a vaporized spray)
[Fig. 6].
Warning: for delicate fabrics, we recommend moistening the fabric beforehand using the spray function (5), or putting a damp
cloth between the iron and the fabric. To avoid staining, do not use the spray on silk or synthetic fabrics.
CLEANING
Please note: before cleaning the iron in any way, make sure that the appliance plug is not connected to the socket.
•
Any deposits, starch residue or size left on the plate can be removed using a damp cloth or an unabrasive liquid detergent.
•
Avoid scratching the plate with steel wool or metallic objects.
•
The plastic parts can be cleaned with a damp cloth then wiped over with a dry cloth.
SELF-CLEANING
The self-cleaning feature cleans inside the plate, removing impurities. We recommend using it every 10-15days. Directions:
1. Fill the reservoir up to the maximum level indicated and set the steam selector (3) to "0"
2. Set the thermostat knob (12) to the maximum temperature and wait for the pilot light (13) to turn off.
3. Pull the plug out of the socket and hold the iron horizontally over the sink.
4. Hold the cleanout button (10) setting until all the boiling water, steam, impurities come out [Fig. 7].
5. When the soleplate has cooled down, you can clean it with a damp cloth.
HOW TO PUT IT AWAY
1. Disconnect the plug of the iron from the socket.
2. Empty the reservoir by turning the iron upside down and gently shaking it.
3. Leave the iron to cool down completely.
4. Roll up the power cord with the rewinder [Fig. 8].
5. Always put the iron away in a vertical position.
ADVICE FOR GOOD IRONING
•
We recommend using the lowest temperatures with fabrics that have unusual finishes (sequins, embroidery, flush, etc.).
•
If the fabric is mixed (e.g. 40% cotton 60% synthetics), set the thermostat to the temperature of the fiber requiring the
lower temperature.
•
If you don't know the composition of the fabric, determine the suitable temperature by testing on a hidden corner of the
garment. Start with a low temperature and increase it gradually until it reaches the ideal temperature.
•
Never iron areas with traces of perspiration or other marks: the heat of the plate fixes the stains on the fabric, making them
irremovable.
•
To avoid marking silk, woolen or synthetic garments shiny, iron them inside out.
•
To avoid marking velvet garments shiny, iron in one direction (following the fiber) and do not press down on the iron.
•
The heavier the washing machine is loaded, the more garments come out creased. This also happens when the spin drying
revolutions are very high.
•
Many fabrics are easier to iron if they are not completely dry.
