Information about the water
This iron works with untreated tap water. Decalcified water of any kind or water from tumble-dryers is
unfit, since it may be very corrosive. Never use water treated with filter cartridges, since the residues
(ex. particles of activated carbon) may block the mechanic parts of the appliance. Never add in water
perfumes or other additives. Water with additives may damage the steam generator with subsequent
costs of cleaning and service. Hard water and a frequent use may cause the formation of scale deposits
in your steam generator. If you wish to slow down the scale forming, we recommend to regularly rinse out
your steam generator (see maintenance, page 26).
3. Before starting the appliance for the first time
Always remember that an improper use of the electric current may be fatal. Please, carefully read the
indications on page 16/17 and follow these safety instructions:
-
Before filling the appliance with water always turn the appliance off and pull the plug out of the socket.
-
Never touch the iron soleplate when in use.
-
Pay attention the steam is never directed toward people or animals.
-
Since the steam generator is under pressure, the safety cap should never be opened.
-
Clean the appliance only when unplugged and when it has completely cooled down.
Airflux ironing station comes with a steam generating unit (22) and a steam iron (3) with semi-professional
soleplate offering several advantages.
-
unlike a "normal" iron, a semi-professional iron emits steam only at the tip. The great amount of steam
emitted "penetrates" easily in the several fabric layers well dampening the garments
-
the back side of the soleplate immediately dry the linen
Thanks to the combination of steam and drying surface the time of ironing reduces remarkably.
