GENERAL INFORMATION

At first use, remove the protective film of the plate; due to the presence of protective oil and residues left over from the film, the plate could emit some smoke. After few uses, the smoke will disappear. When using the product for the first time, repeatedly use the steam (away from clothes) and try to use the iron on a worthless piece of cloth to remove any manufacturing residues that may stain or scratch the clothes. Do not use the ironing system as a heating unit. When not in use, the iron must be stored upright. Keep the power cord free from knots and tangles. Do not wrap the power cord around the iron.It is recommended not to use too frequently the button called “steam shock” (steam shot), because it decreases the temperature of the iron plate which may cause drips of water instead of steam. Always unplug the iron before you fill or empty the tank Do not fill the tank above the maximum capacity and do not introduce into the tank mixtures for removing stains, vinegar, descaling agents or chemicals in general. Always select the most suitable temperature according to the fabric to be ironed.
The iron must be used and rested on a stable surface. When placing the iron on its iron stand, make sure that the surface is stable. The iron should not be used if dropped, when there are visible signs of damage, or if it loses water during operations.
CAUTION: the iron plate gets very hot during use, be careful not to touch it, serious risk of burns. Do not put your face near the steam coming out the iron plate

FILLING THE TANK

The filling operation must be performed only when the plate has been cooled down and after having unplugged the unit from the electrical outlet. We recommend the use of demineralized water to prevent excessive fouling (not covered by warranty).

1. Place the steam control knob (3) on “0”. Open the water tank lid (2).
2. Raise the tip of the iron to avoid any leak of water during the operation.
3. Enter the water up to the maximum level indicated with “MAX” on the tank (11).
4. Close the lid (2).

TEMPERATURE SETTING

The following table provides a guideline on how to adjust the thermostat according to the international symbols printed on the clothing labels or according to the type of fabric.

• It is recommended to iron clothes that require low temperatures first and then medium and high temperatures. This operation allows to save time since the ironing plate heats faster than it cools down.
• When you do not know the composition, it is recommended to iron a non-visible part of the it, starting from the lowest temperature to find the most suitable temperature. Sometimes the clothing becomes shiny, in this case, you need to iron it on the inside not to ruin it. When ironing at maximum temperature (MAX), it is recommended to place a cloth between the ironing plate and the fabric.

Setting the temperature

1. Place the iron vertically. Plug the device to the electrical outlet.
2. Select the temperature regulator (10) according to the symbols shown on the previous page. The chosen symbol has to be aligned with the mark placed on the tank. The iron plate temperature control light shows that iron plate (8) is warming up. Wait until light turns off to start ironing.
   Caution: While ironing, the control light lights up periodically indicating that the temperature is constant. If you lower the thermostat, do not start ironing until the iron temperature control light turns off.

STEAM IRONING
Before using the steam check that the water contained in the tank is enough. Adjust steam power using the control knob (3). Place the steam control knob between minimum and maximum depending on the amount of steam required and temperature.

Caution: the iron provides continuous steam only if it is held in a horizontal position and if the plate is hot. It is possible to stop the continuous jet of steam by placing the iron vertically or placing the steam control (3) to “0”.To avoid the dripping of water, it is recommended to only use steam at high temperatures.

WATER SPRAY
Press the water spray button (5) slowly to have dense spray; press fast for vaporized spray.

Caution: make sure there is water in the tank. For delicate fibers it is advisable to moisten the article before using the spray. To prevent stains, do not use the spray over silk and synthetic fibers.

DRY IRONING
To perform dry ironing, move the steam regulator (3) in the “0” position. In this position, the steam emission is
disable, otherwise, the water spray option is still unable.
