Selecting the steam.
The quantity of steam is regulated by the steam selector (no.11).
Move the steam selector to a position between minimum and maximum depending on the
quantity of steam required and the temperature selected see fig. 1.
Warning: the iron gives off steam continuously only if you hold the iron horizontally. You can
stop the continuous steam by placing the iron in a vertical position or by moving the steam
selector to
. As indicated on the thermostat knob (no. 5), you can only use steam at the
highest temperatures. If the selected temperature is too low, water may drip out of the plate.
Selecting steam when ironing vertically.
Press the shot-steam button (no.10) to generate a powerful burst of steam that can penetrate
the fabrics and smooth the most difficult and tough creases. Wait for a few seconds before
pressing again see fig. 4.
By pressing the shot-steam button at intervals you can also iron vertically (curtains, hung
garments, etc.) see fig. 5.
Warning: the shot-steam function can only be used at high temperatures.
Spray Function
Make sure that there is water in the reservoir. Press the spray button (no. 9) slowly (for a
dense spray) or quickly (for a vaporized spray) see fig. 6.
Warning: for delicate fabrics, we recommend moistening the fabric beforehand using the spray
function (no. 9), or putting a damp cloth between the iron and the fabric. To avoid staining, do
not use the spray on silk or synthetic fabrics.
Cleaning
Please note: before cleaning the iron in any way, make sure that the appliance plug is not
connected to the socket.
Any paste or other remains left on the plate can be removed using a damp cloth or an
unabrasive liquid detergent.
Avoid scratching the plate with steel wool or metallic objects.
The plastic parts can be cleaned with a damp cloth then wiped over with a dry cloth.
Self-cleaning
The self-cleaning feature cleans inside the plate, removing impurities. We recommend to do
this every 10-15 days. Directions: Fill the reservoir up to the maximum level indicated and set
the steam selector (no. 11) to
. Set the thermostat knob (no. 5) to the maximum
temperature.
Pull the plug out of the socket and hold the iron horizontally over the sink. Hold the selfclean
button (no. 4) setting until all the boiling water, steam, impurities come out see fig. 7.
When the soleplate has cooled down, you can clean it with a damp cloth.
How yo put it away
Disconnect the plug from the socket and leave the iron to cool down completely.
Empty the reservoir by turning the iron upside down and gently shaking it. Roll up the power
cord on the rewinder see fig. 8. Always put the iron away in a vertical position.

Advice for good ironing
-
We recommend using the lowest temperatures with fabrics that have unusual finishes
(sequins, embroidery, flush, etc.). If the fabric is mixed (e.g. 40% cotton 60% synthetics),
set the thermostat to the temperature of the fibre 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 it reaches the ideal temperature.Never iron areas with traces of perspiration
or other marks: the heat of the plate fixes the stains on the fabric, making them
irremovable.The result is more effective if you use a dry iron at a moderate temperature;
excess heat scorches it with the risk of forming a yellow mark.
-
To avoid marking silk, woolen or synthetic garments getting shiny, iron them inside out.
-
To avoid marking velvet garments shiny, iron in one direction (following the fibre) and do
not press down on the iron.
-
The heavier the washing machine is loaded, the more garments come out creased. This
also happens when the spin drying revolutions are very high.
-
Many fabrics are easier to iron if they are not completely dry. For example, silk should
always be ironed damp.
