BEFORE USE
Take the product out of the box.
Remove any packaging materials, stickers or protective foil from the soleplate. Clean the soleplate with a soft cloth.

Fill the water tank with water and heat up the iron, and then iron over a piece of damp cloth for several minutes for the purpose of removing any residue on the soleplate.
Warning: Some parts of the steam iron have been slightly greased and as a result, the iron may slightly smoke when switched on for the first time. After a short time, this will cease.
It is normal that strange odor comes out from the unit for the first use. This will cease after a short while.
When the appliance is switched on, the steam generator may produce a pumping sound. This is completely normal; this sound indicates that the water is being pumped into the steam generator.
During the soleplate’s heating process, some steam may come out from the soleplate for about 3 seconds.

OPERATION

Water inlet cover
Open the water inlet cover and fill the water tank with water through the filling opening. Make sure water does not exceed the MAX. mark on the water tank.

Power switch
For switching the device on, it must be plugged in. Press the power switch button, and the power indicator light will turn on. The low-steam rate is the default mode, so its indicator light will turn on. Press the power switch button for about two seconds to turn the device off.

Steam-power level button
Use the steam-power level button to select the desired steam-power level: Medium or high. Whichever is selected, its corresponding indicator light will flash, and it will flash after having finished preheating.

Temperature knob
Turn the temperature knob to set the desired ironing temperature based on the garment to be ironed. To activate the steam function, select the temperature range at which steam is produced, otherwise steam spray will not be emitted efficiently.

Temperature indicator
When the iron is heating up, the temperature light indicator will turn on. Once the iron has reached the selected temperature, it will turn off. The temperature indicator will switch on and off as the iron maintains the selected temperature during ironing.

Lock button
Place the steam station on the heatproof stand of the unit base, then push the lock button to the lock position in order to rest the iron in the base.
To unlock it, push the lock button to the unlock position, then the iron is ready to use. The whole steam station can be lifted up by grasping the iron’ s handle, provided that the iron is not locked on the unit base.

Steam trigger
After pressing the power switch and choosing the desired steam power level, it will indicate that the device can be used when the steam power level indicator changes from flashing to steady. Then, press the steam trigger gently for steam to be sprayed from the soleplate continuously.

When the steam trigger is completely loosened, the appliance can only be used for dry ironing without steam.

Steam burst
Press the steam trigger twice within 1 second to activate the steam burst function. The steam burst can be used to remove the toughest creases.

Refill indicator
When the level of water in the tank is low, this light indicator will turn on, the device will beep and will stop working. When this happens, add water into the tank. For this, remove the water tank and refill it with water through the filling opening, then put the water tank back in its position.
Fig. 6

Descaling indicator
If the descaling indicator light turns on, it means that the steam generator must be cleaned of any mineral deposits. At this point, descale it following the steps on the “Cleaning and maintenance” section. When the system ensures the mineral deposits have been removed, the indicator will switch off.
Cord slot
When it’s not being used, the steam supply tube and power cord can be wound along the cord slot for storage.
Auto-off
The appliance will turn off automatically after 10 minutes of inactivity.
Dry ironing
Place the iron on the heatproof stand of the unit base.

Connect the plug to a wall outlet, the temperature indicator and the indicator of MAX. steam-power level will turn on.
Turn temperature knob to select the desired temperature setting depending on the garment’s fabric, and the iron will start heating up.
When the selected temperature is reached, the temperature indicator will turn off.

Then, the iron is ready to be used.
Warning: Do not touch the soleplate before it cools down!

Steam ironing
Grasp the water tank’s handle to remove the water tank, then fill it with water through the filling opening. Use purified water with few calc particles. After this, replace the water tank properly. The max. capacity of the water tank is 1.8L, the water level should not exceed the MAX mark.

Place the steam station on the thermal insulation stand of the unit base.
Connect the plug to the wall outlet, press the power switch, and the low-steam power level indicator will flash. There are three steam-power levels: Low, Medium and High. Select the appropriate steam power level for each garment. Make sure there is enough water in the water tank.

Turn the temperature knob to the desired setting taking into account the fabric, the temperature indicator will turn on. The steam station will start emitting heat. Refer to “ironing tips” and “additional table” below when setting the temperature.
The water in the steam generator will be heated after a few minutes, then the temperature indicator will switch off. This indicates that the soleplate temperature has achieved the selected temperature.
When the indicator light of the operating steam-power level changes from flashing to steady, it indicates that the iron is ready to use.
Then, press the steam trigger gently for steam to be sprayed from the soleplate continuously. Warning: Never direct the steam at people!
After ironing, press the power switch for about 2 seconds, the appliance will switch off and with it, all the indicators. Remove the plug from the wall socket. Be careful, the soleplate will still be hot, never touch it with your hand.
Place it on the heatproof stand until it cools down completely.

Ironing tips
Always check first whether a label with ironing instructions is attached to the article. Follow these ironing instructions in any case.
The iron heats up quicker than it cools down; therefore, start by ironing the articles that require the lowest temperatures such as those made of synthetic fiber.
If the fabric consists of various kinds of fibers, always select the lowest ironing temperature to iron the composition of those fibers.
Silk and other fabrics that are likely to become shiny should be ironed on their inner side.

Velvet and other textures that rapidly become shiny should be ironed in one direction with light pressure applied. Always keeps the iron moving at every moment.
Pure wool fabrics (100 % wool) may be ironed with the steam iron. Preferably set the temperature knob to the third position and use a dry cloth as a mat.
Never iron over zips or rivets in the cloth. This will damage the soleplate.
Warning: When ironing woolen fabrics, shining of the fabric may occur. In this case, it is suggested to turn the article inside out and iron the reverse side.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Turn off, unplug the appliance from the power supply, empty the watertank (do it after each use) and allow it to cool down completely.
Wipe deposits on the soleplate with a damp cloth or a non-abrasive (liquid) cleaner. Warning:
Do not use abrasive scouring pads, powders or cleaners to clean the product. Clean the upper part of the device with a soft damp cloth. Wipe water drops on the unit base and the heatproof stand with a dry cloth.
If there is any fabric adhered to the soleplate, use a damp cloth with vinegar to wipe off the soleplate.

To remove the mineral deposits gathered in the inner steam generator, follow these steps:
Make sure the steam station has completely cooled down before cleaning.
Fill the tank with clean water. Tap water may be used as long as it does not have a high content of limescale. If it does, use 50 % tap water and 50 % low- mineral water.
Press and hold the power button while you connect the plug to a power outlet. It is very important that you perform these two operations simultaneously. The device will beep twice.
Then press and hold the steam trigger until you hear a beep.
Press the power button again until it beeps twice. It is important that you do this as quickly as possible. If the device does not beep twice, repeat the entire process from step 1.
Press and hold the steam trigger until the ON indicator light comes on steadily and all 3 steam rate indicator flash.

The self-cleaning process can take some minutes to get started, it will stop automatically and the lights will switch off.
Once the self-cleaning process is over, the device will be ready for being used again.

Warning: During the self-cleaning process, the device can reach high temperatures. Do not touch it. Allow it to cool down before using it again.

The device has a lower cover (Fig. 7). If it is not going to be used for a long period of time, remove the cover by levering it gently. Pour out the water and place the cover again by pressing it until it is fixed.

Make sure the steam generator has been cooled down completely before doing this.
When the device is not to be used for a long time, empty the water in the tank, lock the iron onto the heatproof stand and store it.
To store the supply steam hose and power cord along the cord slot: Firstly, fold the steam supply hose in two and wind it along the cord slot, then fix it at the cord slot. Secondly, fold the power cord in two and wind it along the cord slot, then fix it at the cord slot (See Fig.8).
