IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When using your flatiron, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE

1. Use iron only for its intended use.
2.  To protect against a risk of electric shock, do not immerse the iron in water or other liquids.
3. . The iron should always be turned to MIN TEMP before plugging or unplugging from outlet.
4. . Never yank cord to disconnect from outlet; instead, grasp plug and pull to disconnect.
5. . Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces.
6. . Let iron cool completely before putting away. Loop cord loosely around iron when storing.
7. Always disconnect iron from electrical outlet when filling with water or emptying and when not in use.
8. . Do not operate iron with a damaged cord or if the iron has been dropped or damaged. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the iron take it to a qualified serviceman for exa-mination and repair. Incorrect reassembly can cause a risk of electric shock when iron is used.
9. . Close supervision is necessary for any appliance being used by or near children. Do not leave iron unattended while connected or on an ironing board.
10. Burns can occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water, or steam. Use caution when you turn a steam iron upside down – there may be hot water in the reservoir.
11. . If the malfunction indicator goes on, the flatiron is not operating normally. Disconnect from the power supply and have the flatiron serviced by qualified service personnel.
12. . If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

General Instruction

When using the iron for the first time, you may notice a slight emission of smoke and hear some sounds made by the expanding plastics. This is normal and will stop after a short time. We recom-mend passing the iron over an ordinary cloth before using it for the first time.

Preparations
Soft the laundry to be ironed according to the international symbols on the garment label, or if this is missing, according to the type of fabric.

NOTE :

Start ironing the garments requiring a low temperature. This reduces the waiting times (the iron takes less time to heat up than to cool down) and eliminates the risk of scorching the fabric.

Steam ironing Filling the reservoir

1.  Check that the plug is disconnected from the socket.
2.  Move the steam knob (4) to “min”
3. . Open the lid (3).
4. . Raise the tip of the iron to help the water enter the opening without overflowing.
5. . Slowly pour the water into the reservoir with using the special measure and taking care not to go over the maximum level indicated by “MAX” on the reservoir [Fig. 2].
6. . Close the lid (3).

**Selecting the temperature

**

1. Put the iron in a vertical position.
2.  Put the plug in the socket.
3.  Adjust the Temp-knob (13) according to the international symbol on the garment label The plate temperature control light indicates that the iron is heating up. Wait until the plate temperature control light goes off before ironing.

Warning:
During ironing, the plate temperature control light comes on at intervals, indicating that the selected temperature is maintained. If you lower the thermostat temperature after ironing at a high temperature, do not start ironing until the plate temperature control light comes on again.

Selecting the steam
The quantity of steam is regulated by the steam selector (4).

1.  Move the steam selector to a position between minimum and maximum depending on the quantity of steam required and the temperature selected [Fig. 1].
2. Warning:
   The iron gives off steam continuously only if you hold the iron horizontally. You can stop the continuous steam by placing the iron in a vertical position or by moving the steam selector to “min”. As indicated on the thermostat knob (13) and in the initial table, you can only use steam at the highest temperatures. If the selected temperature is too low, water may drip onto the plate.

Selecting Shot-steam and steam when ironing vertically

1. Press the shot-steam button (5) to generate a powerful burst of steam that can penetrate the fabrics and smooth the most difficult and tough creases. Wait for a few seconds before pres-sing again [Fig. 4].
2. By pressing the shot-steam button at intervals you can also iron vertically (curtains, hung garments, etc.) [Fig. 5].

Warning:
The shot-steam function can only be used at high temperatures. Stop the emission when the plate temperature control light comes on, then start ironing again only after the light has gone off.

Dry ironing
To iron without steam, follow the instructions in section “steam ironing”, leaving the steam selector (4) on position “min”.

Spray Function
Make sure that there is water in the reservoir. Press the spray button (6) slowly (for a dense spray) or quickly (for a vaporized spray) [Fig. 6].

Warning:
For delicate fabrics, we recommend moistening the fabric beforehand using the spray function (6) or putting a damp cloth between the iron and the fabric. To avoid staining, do not use the spray on silk or synthetic fabrics .

Cleaning **

**

Note:

•  Before cleaning the iron in any way, make sure that the appliance plug is not connected to the socket.
• Any deposits, starch residue or size left on the plate can be removed using a damp cloth or an abrasive liquid detergent.
• Avoid scratching the plate with steel wool or metallic objects.
• The plastic parts can be cleaned with a damp cloth then wiped over with a dry cloth.

Self-cleaning
The self-cleaning feature cleans inside the plate, removing impurities. We recommend using it every 10-15 days. Directions:

1. . Fill the reservoir up to the maximum level indicated and set the steam selector (4) to the close gear. [Fig. 1]
2. . Set the thermostat knob (13) to the maximum temperature and wait for the light to turn off.
3. . Set the steam selector (4) to the self-cleaning gear, and it will automatically popup, then begin to clean the soleplate (1). [Fig. 7]
4. Pull the plug out of the socket and hold the iron horizontally over the sink.
5. . Set the steam selector (4) to the close gear until all the boiling water, steam, impurities come out.
6. . When the soleplate has cooled down, you can clean it with a damp cloth.

Storage

1. . Disconnect the plug of the iron from the socket.
2.  Empty the reservoir by turning the iron upside down and gently shaking it.
3. . Leave the iron to cool down completely.
4. . Roll up the power cord with the rewinder
5.  Always put the iron away in a vertical position.

Tips

•  We recommend using the lowest temperatures with fabrics that have unusual finishes (sequins, embroidery, flush, etc.).
•  If the fabric is mixed (e.g. 40% cotton 60% synthetics), set the thermostat to the temperature of the fiber requiring the lower temperature.
•  If you don’t know the composition of the fabric, determine the suitable temperature by testing on a hidden corner of the garment. Start with a low temperature and increase it gradually until it reaches the ideal temperature.
•  Never iron areas with traces of perspiration or other marks: the heat of the plate fixes the stains on the fabric, making them irremovable.
• The size is more effective if you use a dry iron at a moderate temperature: excess heat scorches it with the risk of forming a yellow mark.
•  To avoid marking silk, woolen or synthetic garments shiny, iron them inside out.
•  To avoid marking velvet garments shiny, iron in one direction (following the fiber) and do not press down on the iron.
•  The heavier the washing machine is loaded, the more garments come out creased. This also happens when the spin-drying revolutions are very high.
•  Many fabrics are easier to iron if they are not completely dry. For example, silk should always be ironed damp.
