Selecting The Programmes - Hotpoint Ariston SI C55 DEW Operating Instructions Manual

Do not add any perfume, starch, scale-removing
agents, ironing products or other chemicals into
the water reservoir – unless recommended by
Hotpoint-Ariston. Do not use contaminated water.
Filling the water reservoir (A)
Before filling the reservoir with water, make sure that
the iron is switched off and disconnected from the
power outlet.
1. Place the product in the vertical position, open
the filling cap (10) and fill the water reservoir (7)
using the water measuring cup supplied with
the iron. Do not exceed the maximum level in-
dicated.
2. Close the filling cap.
USING THE IRON (B)
1. Insert the iron's plug into a grounded power out-
let (220–240 V). The product will emit a buzzer
to signal that it is powered. The temperature in-
dicator light (2) will flash, while the "all fabrics"
indicator light (18) and the PRO mode indicator
light will light up to signal that the iron is heating
up. The "all fabrics" indicator light and the PRO
mode indicator light refer, respectively, to the de-
fault programme and mode in which the product
activates.
2. When the temperature reaches the level of the
"all fabrics" programme (18), the temperature in-
dicator light (2) remains steady lit.
3. To select the desired programme, consult the
"Selecting the programmes" paragraph.

SELECTING THE PROGRAMMES

(C)
To select a different programme to the default "all fab-
rics" programme (18), press the programme selector
button (1).
Whenever the button is pressed, the programme indi-
cator light switches from the "all fabrics" programme
(18) to the successive programme according to the
sequence shown in Figure C.
Make sure to check the garment label to determine
the type of fabric then select the most appropriate pro-
gramme. If in doubt, iron a hidden part of the garment
in order to determine the most appropriate tempera-
ture and avoid damaging the fabric. In case of very
delicate fabrics such as silk, wool and synthetic mate-
rials, iron the garment inside out to avoid leaving any
shiny marks. Start with garments that require a lower
temperature, for example synthetic fabrics.

SELECTING
MODE (D)
The PRO mode is the product's default operating
mode. To switch from the PRO mode (11) to the AUTO
operating mode (12), simultaneously press the pro-
gramme selector button (1) and the steam button (3)
for a few seconds. Simultaneously pressing the pro-
gramme selector button (1) and the steam button (3)
allows for switching between modes.
AUTO operating mode (E)
In the AUTO operating mode, the iron emits steam
continuously only when it moves. When the iron
stops moving, steam is no longer emitted thanks to
the presence of the electronic sensor that modulates
the steam emission in relation to the iron's movement.
The quantity of steam emitted depends on the select-
ed programme. Check that there is enough water in
the reservoir. To activate and deactivate continuous
steam emission, press the steam button (3).
In this mode it is not possible to iron with the shot-of-
steam function.
The product is able to assess whether steam is nec-
essary, on the basis of the programme selected by
the user.
