Steam ironing

1 With the iron unplugged from the mains, slide the steam control (10) to
the closed position (Fig. 1).
2 Open the water filler opening (5). Fill the water tank without exceeding
the maximum level, using the beaker provided (13) and keeping the iron
in the vertical position (Fig. 4). When the tank is full, close the cap.

When filling the tank, make sure that the water does not overflow from
the water filler opening.

Use only water, with no added detergents, scents, vinegar or chemical
products. Tap water can be used, unless it has an excessive amount of
limescale, in which case it is recommended to use distilled or
demineralised water (see table 1). Do not use ionised water for batteries.
3 Plug the iron into the mains. To obtain steam, set the temperature
selector (9) between levels •• and medium and MAX, depending on the
garment to be ironed. When the pilot light (12) goes off, indicating that
the desired temperature has been reached, adjust the steam control (10)
until the desired steam flow is obtained (Fig. 3).

Supersteam

If you want more steam while ironing, press the button (8) two or three
times, aim the supersteam at the desired area of the garment and pass
the iron soleplate over it to dry it. This function is useful for removing
creases.
• We recommend pressing the control at 5-second intervals.
• If you want more supersteam power, slide the steam control (10) to
minimum.
