15. Before the First Use
    

    • Remove any sticker or protective cover from the soleplate before using the appliance.
    • Before the first use of the steam generator, use a damp cloth to remove any potential residuals from the soleplate as there may be debris from the steam vents. Use the steam generator for the first time on an old piece of fabric to ensure that the soleplate and the water tank are completely clean.
    • When the steam generator is used for the first time, some vapor may be emitted as well as some smoke and odor. However, after a short while this will cease to exist.

Suitable Water

• You can use tap water unless the tap water is too hard. If the water in your area is too hard and contains many salts, use distilled water.
• Do not use water of any chemical composition, water from refrigerators, clothes dryers, batteries, air conditioners, scented water, softener water, and rainwater. In these cases, the water contains organic waste or metallic elements that accumulate during heating, causing stains on clothes and help reduce the shelf life of the device.
• The use of water of any chemical composition in accordance with the above cancels the warranty.
• Water containing sediments and salts will cause damage to the plate holes and to the internal operation of the iron. The specially designed steam chamber and the filter protect the appliance from wear.
• To ensure maximum appliance life:
  • Do not use chemical composition water.
  • The harder the water is, the more often you need to descale the appliance.

Tips for Better Results

• Divide the washing according to the correct ironing temperatures and in accordance with the International Fabric Care Code, which is on the labels label.
• If you do not know what fabric is made of fabric, determine the appropriate ironing temperature by ironing a point on the fabric that is not apparent when wearing it or using it.
• Silk, woolen and synthetic fabrics should be ironed from the riverside so as not to create shiny patches.
• First iron the fabrics that require the lowest temperature and then the fabrics that require a higher temperature.
• Do not iron metal objects such as zippers, hooks, rings, etc. as these may scratch the plate.
• Fabrics such as velvet and wool and accessories such as gloves, bags, etc. They will recover the brand new look and texture by simply passing the iron near the surface of the cloth and pressing the steam button.
• Fabrics that have some kind of finishing (glossy surfaces, wrinkles, etc.) can be ironed at low temperatures.
• For fabrics containing different fibers in their composition, always choose the appropriate temperature for ironing, which corresponds to the highest percentage of fabric. For example, if a fabric contains 60% polyester and 40% cotton, you should choose the appropriate temperature for the polyester and iron the fabric without steam.
• For woolen fabrics, select the middle temperature and press the steam button intermittently to achieve small steam emissions without touching the iron on the cloth.
• It is recommended that the steam button is used for small bursts rather than for prolonged periods of time. This can prevent the distillation of water from the steam holes and may reduce the frequency that you need to refill the water tank.

Anti-Drip System

• With the anti-drip system, you can perfectly iron even the most sensitive fabrics that need a low temperature.
• The anti-drip system prevents water from dripping through the holes in the iron plate when it is cold or at low temperature.
• During use, this system can produce a loud “click” sound, especially when it is warming up or when it cools down the iron. This is perfectly normal and indicates that the system is working properly.

Care and Cleaning

CAUTION: Before performing any cleaning or maintenance work, make sure that you remove the power cord from the electrical outlet and that the appliance has cooled down completely.

• Drain the remaining water from the water tank to prevent leakage during cleaning.

• Keep the soleplate smooth. Avoid contact with hard, metal objects. Do not scratch or damage the surface of the soleplate.
• Do not place the iron on any metal surface. Only place the iron on the heat-resistant base.
• To prevent scratches and damage the plate, avoid any contact with hard metal objects.
• Wipe the upper part of the appliance with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasives or harsh cleaners as they may damage the surface of the steam generator.
• Never immerse the appliance in water or nay other liquid. Never hold the iron or the base unit under the tap.
