Features & Tips
Anti-Drip System
With the anti-drip system, you can iron even the
most delicate fabrics.
Always iron delicate fabrics at low temperatures.
The plate may cool down to the point where drops
of boiling water, which can leave marks or stains,
come out of the plate rather than steam. Turn the
steam selector to the off position so the anti-drip
system activates to prevent vaporization, helping
avoid the risk of staining.
Anti-Calc System
A special resin filter inside the Water Tank softens
the water and prevents scale build-up in the plate.
The resin filter is permanent and does not need to
be replaced.
NOTE: Use tap water to fill the Water Tank.
In hard water areas, you can use a mixture of
50% tap water and 50% distilled or demineralized
water. Do not use chemical additives, scented
substances, or decalcifiers in the water.
Tips for Good Ironing
•
We recommend using the lowest temperatures
with fabrics that have unusual finishes (sequins,
embroidery, transfers etc.).
• If the fabric is mixed (for example, 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 the
iron reaches the ideal temperature.
Automatic Shut-Off
If the iron (connected to the base with the
power on) has been left idle for approximately
30 seconds in the horizontal position, heating will
shut off. When this happens, the automatic shut-off
indicator light will blink. Lift the iron to the
vertical position to deactivate this safety feature
and allow the iron to heat before ironing again.
If the iron (connected to the base with the
power on) is in use for approximately 30 minutes,
a safety feature will activate and the heat will
shut-off. When this happens, the Automatic
Shut-off Indicator Light will blink. Lift the iron to
the horizontal position and then back to the
vertical position to deactivate this safety feature
(which will be indicated by a constant blue light)
and allow the iron to heat to the required
temperature before ironing again.
• Never iron areas with traces of perspiration or
other marks. The heat of the plate fixes the stains
on the fabric, making them permanent.
•
To avoid making silk, woolen, or synthetic
garments shiny, iron them inside out.
• To avoid making velvet garments shiny, iron in
one direction (following the fiber) and do not
press down on the iron.
• Many fabrics are easier to iron if they are not
completely dry. For example, silk should always
be ironed damp.
