Water measure USiNG THE aPPLiaNCE For THE FirST TimE • The first time you use the iron, remove the plate protection (if present). • When used for the first time, the appliance may give off smoke and an odour for several minutes. This is caused by heating and subsequent drying of the sealers used in as- sembling the appliance. -
Page 6: Adjusting Plate Temperature
• Close the tank fill hole cap. adjusting plate temperature. Please note: On the back of the iron there is a useful guide giving informa- tion on the temperature to set according to the garment being ironed: • Plug the iron into the mains socket. (Models with auto-off only: the light F comes on to indicate that the appliance is connected to the mains electricity supply.) • The “steam ready” light G comes on. • Select the required temperature by turning the thermostat knob H (fig. 3). -
Page 7: Dry Ironing
• Wait for the “steam ready” light G to go off. To discharge steam, just place the iron in a horizontal position. Steam stops when the iron is placed upright on the rear rest (the recommended position during pauses in ironing). DrY iroNiNG • Set plate temperature as described above. • Move the steam regulator to the position (“dry”). • Wait for the “steam ready” light G to go off. The iron is ready to use. If the fabric to be ironed is slightly damp or you iron fast, you can use a higher temperature. If, on the other hand, the garments are dry or you iron slowly, you are recommended to use a lower temperature. VErTiCaL iroNiNG This function enables delicate garments to be steamed without resting them on the ironing board. Pay particular attention to the temperature when steaming curtains. -

ments, elements, people and animals. TUrBo FUNCTioN Press this button to obtain a powerful jet of steam, useful to eli- minate creases. • Set plate temperature to maX. • Move the steam regulator to the steam posi- tion. • Wait for the “steam ready” light G to go off. • Press and release the Turbo button (L). To use the turbo function correctly, wait a few seconds between one burst of steam and the next. SPraY BUTToN If during ironing, you note particularly resistant creases or if your garment requires a higher level of dampness, you can use the spray. -
Page 9: Auto-Off
aUTo-oFF (Certain models only) • If the iron is left unused in a horizontal position for 30 secon- ds, it goes off automatically. • If the iron is not used in an upright position, the auto-off device trips after 8 minutes. The light (F) flashes to indicate auto-off. To begin ironing again, shake the iron slightly forwards until the light (F) comes on ste- adily. aFTEr iroNiNG To extend the working life of the iron, whenever you finish iro- ning, you are recommended to empty the tank as follows: • Unplug from the mains socket. • Empty the iron by holding it tip downwards and shaking it gently over a basin or sink. • To dry residual moisture, turn the iron on again with the ther- mostat at maximum for about 2 minutes. -
Page 10: Limescale Prevention And Self Clean
Limescale prevention and SELF CLEaN The resin filter installed in the tank filters impurities, thus ensu- ring constant steam delivery during ironing. The resin softens the water and improves the long term perfor- mance of the iron. However, if the amount of stream drops during use, this could be caused by excessive build-up of limescale. To remove, proceed as follows: • Fill the tank. • Plug the appliance into the mains and place the thermostat in the MAX position. • When the iron has reached the required temperature (light off), unplug the appliance. • Place over a sink and leave the appliance in a horizontal position. - Page 11 Disposing of a household appliance separately avoids possible negative consequences for the environment and health deriving from inappropriate disposal and enables the constituent mate- rials to be recovered to obtain significant savings in energy and resources. As a reminder of the need to dispose of household appliances separately, the product is marked with a crossed-out wheeled dustbin.
