Intended use

The appliance must be used only for ironing garments which are suitable for ironing according to the care label. Never iron or dampen garments while wearing them.

Filling the water tank
(for details refer to Fig. A)
Make sure the appliance is plugged off. You can refill the water tank at any time during use. This appliance has been designed to be used with tap water. However, if you live in an area with hard water, we recommend that you use either distilled water or demineralized water to prolong the lifetime of the appliance. Do not use condensation water from a tumble dryer.

Start into Operation
(for details refer to Fig. B)
Before starting ironing follow the garment care label instructions carefully. Fabrics with this symbol are not ironable. For best ironing results, after ironing with steam, perform the last strokes without steam.

Before First use

When steam is ready for the first time we recommend ironing for a few minutes over a rag to avoid manufacturing residues that can dirty your garments.

Settings

• iCare
  The iCare mode is automatically chosen when the appliance is switched on. It is suggested for garments like wool, polyester and cotton/linen.

• eco
  It is suggested for most delicate garments like synthetics, silk and blended fabrics. This mode allows less power consumption.

• turbo + (max. steam)
  It is suggested for garments that need more powerful steam, like thick cotton/linen and jeans.
  Note: The pump is activated each time you press the steam button. It produces some subtle rattling noise which might change from setting to setting. This is normal.

Iron Auto-Off (for details refer to fig. D)
If this function is activated the mode LED corresponding to the chosen steam setting starts flashing.

Descaling

• The system will remind you to describe it regularly independent of the type of water used. Descaling can be performed at any time needed even when not indicated by the system.

• If the clean LED (2) and the acoustic signal turn on during an ironing session, it is possible to continue ironing. There is no need to perform the cleaning immediately. The cleaning procedure can be performed when the ironing session has been fi nished or the next time the appliance is switched on.

• If the appliance is switched off without having performed the cleaning process, the clean LED and acoustic signal will turn on again when it is next switched on. If there is no steam supply from the iron and the following conditions are present: clean LED “on”, temperature control LED “fl ashing” and acoustic signal “active” then the cleaning process will be mandatory to proceed with the ironing session.
  Caution: Do not leave the appliance unattended during the descaling process.

• Always perform the descaling process with the cleaning vessel. Do not interrupt the process by lifting the iron from the cleaning vessel, as hot water and steam will come out of the soleplate.
  Caution: The cleaning vessel can be hot and contains hot water, take care while moving and emptying it.
