Plug in the appliance and put the switch (1) in position "I" to switch it on. The power light
of the switch (1) and the pump pilot light (2) will light up, indicating that the appliance is
working and the iron is heating. Set the temperature dial of the iron (5) to the desired
position, the indicator lamp of the iron (8) will light up. As soon as the desired temperature
is reached, the pilot light of the iron will go out and you can start ironing.
•
During ironing this pilot light (8) will come on from time to time. When this happens, the
soleplate is being heated up to the required temperature again. You can continue
ironing.
•
The table is valid for the fibre materials only. If some kind of finish has been applied (gloss,
wrinkle, relief etc), the textile can best be ironed at a lower temperature.
First sort out the fabrics according to ironing temperature: wool with wool, cotton with
cotton, etc.
•
The iron heats up quicker than it cools down. Therefore, start ironing the articles requiring
the lowest temperature such as those made of synthetic fibres. Then progress to the higher
temperatures.
•
If the article is made of a mixture of different fibres, you must always select the lowest
ironing temperature of the composition of those fibres.
(E.g. an article consisting of "60% polyester and 40% cotton" should be ironed at the
temperature indicated for polyester and without steam.)
If you do not know what kind(s) of fabric(s) the article has been made of, find a spot,
which will be invisible when wearing or using the article to try out the ironing temperature.
(Always start at a low temperature and increase to one which gives the required results.)
•
Pure woollen fabrics (100% wool) may be pressed with the iron set to a steam position. It is
recommended to apply shot-of-steam and use a dry pressing cloth.
When steam-ironing woollen fabrics, shining of the fabric may occur. This can be
prevented by turning the article inside out and ironing the inside or by interposing a light
damp cloth.
•
Velvet and other textures that rapidly acquire shiny spots should be ironed in one direction
only (with the nap), applying only light pressure.
Always keep the iron moving.
•
Iron the reverse side of synthetic materials and silk, it is not advisable to use steam as this
may cause stains.
FILLING WITH WATER (FOR STEAM-IRONING)
1.
Put the base on a stable surface.
2.
Use the small grips (4) of the water tank to take out the water tank. Open the cap (7) and
fill the water tank with clear water up to its "Max" level. Do not fill beyond this maximum
level! You can use tap water, but we advise you to use distilled water.
3.
Close the cap (7) of the water tank.
4.
Put the water tank back in the base correctly. Make sure to keep it upright in order to
avoid spilling water. Press the grips until the water tank is locked in place.
5.
Never use vinegar, detergents or other chemical products.
FILLING THE WATER TANK DURING USE
As the water tank of this appliance is not under pressure, you can refill it during use. To do so,
switch off the appliance, unplug it and just proceed as described above in the "Filling with
water" section. When you have put the water tank back in place, plug the appliance in again,
switch it on and wait until the indicator lamp of the iron goes out. Then you can start ironing
again.
