Do not immerse the motor unit in water.
In order to provide additional protection, it is recommended to install a residue current device (RCD) in the power circuit, with a residual current rating of not more than 30 mA. Contact a professional electrician in this matter.
If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only with the grounding terminal and adapted to a current minimum of 10 A. The other (“weak”) extension cords can overheat. The cable should be arranged to avoid accidental strokes or stumbles over it.
Always, before filling with water or when the steam iron is not used, unplug it from the mains.
Touching a hot soleplate, contact with hot steam or water may cause burns. Be careful when you rotate the iron, as in the tank, even when disconnected from the power supply iron, may still be in hot water.
DO NOT allow for prolonged contact hot steam iron with fabric or flammable materials.
Be careful that the power cord does not touch the hot soleplate. Allow the iron to cool completely before storage.
If you do not use iron, even for a short time, turn off the options of steam
Under no circumstances should be ironed clothes and fabrics that are on humans or animals.
Never direct the steam to humans or pets.
Use the self-cleaning function at least once a month.
Iron must be used at a stable even surface and this can only be disposed of.
Do not fill the water tank with chemicals, perfumes, or descaling substances.

ANTI-CALC function
A special resin filter inside the water reservoir softens the water and prevents scale build-up in the plate. The resin filter is permanent and does not need replacing.
PLEASE NOTE: Use tap water only. Distilled and/demineralized water makes the “Zero-Calc” anti-calc system ineffective by altering its physicochemical characteristics.
ANTI-DRIP SYSTEM
The plate may cool down to the point where no more steam comes out, but rather drops of boiling water that can leave marks or stains.
Self-Clean Function
It is recommended that you periodically use the soleplate Self-Clean function which prevents scale build-up in your iron. In order to do this, fill your iron entirely with water, sit it on its heel, connect to the mains and set the thermostat to “MAX”. When the control light goes out, disconnect the device from the mains and hold it in a horizontal position, e.g. over a sink. Press the Self-Clean button (J) and hold the iron for about a minute, shaking it. When it cools down, clean the soleplate with a moist cloth to remove any dirt.
Intelligent automatic shutdown system
It has an automatic shutdown system that ensures maximum safety and energy savings at home. The automatic switch activates after 8 minutes in an upright position or after 30 seconds in a horizontal position, protecting the pressed clothes from possible scorching.
IRONING
First use
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 quite normal and it stops after a short time. We also recommend passing the iron over ordinary cloth when using it for the first time.
Preparation
Sort 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.

GARMENT LABEL	FABRIC TYPE	THERMOSTAT REGULATION
synthetic	·

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

Check that the plug is disconnected from the socket. Move the steam selector (C) to “0”. Open the lid (B). Raise the tip of the iron to help the water enter the opening without overflowing. Slowly pour the water into the reservoir using the special measure and take care not to go over the maximum level (about 400ml) indicated by “MAX” on the reservoir. Close the lid (B). Place the iron in a vertical position. Plug it into the electricity. Set the thermostat knob in accordance with the international symbol on the clothes labels. The thermostat control light indicates that the iron heats up. Wait until the indicator lights off. You can then start ironing.
Warning: When you iron, the thermostat control light turns on from time to time, this means that the selected temperature is maintained at a constant level. If you decrease the temperature, do not begin ironing again until the thermostat light does not light up.
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 “0”. As indicated on the thermostat knob (I) 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 (E) and steam when ironing vertically
Press the steam blast button to cause rapid ejection of a strong jet of steam, which easily penetrates the fabric and can smooth out most wrinkles. Wait a few seconds before re-using this button. Using a steam boost button (at the correct time between use) can also be ironed iron in a vertical position (curtains, hanging clothes, etc.).
Warning: The Shot of steam function can be used only at the highest temperatures. Do not use the button when the thermostat indicator lights. You can return to the vertical ironing only if the pilot light goes out.
Ironing without steam
To ironing without steam, turn steam regulation lever (C) to 0 positions.
Spray function
Make sure that the water tank (M) is filled with water. Press the spray button (D), slow (to launch a compact stream of water), or fast (to get dispersed)
Warning : for delicate fabrics, we recommend moistening the fabric before ironing using the spray function (D), or putting a damp cloth between the iron and the fabric. To avoid staining, do not use the spray on silk or synthetic fabrics.
PROCEDURE AFTER IRONING
Disconnect the plug of the iron from the socket. Empty the reservoir by turning the iron upside down and gently shaking it. Leave the iron to cool down completely.

ADVICE FOR GOOD IRONING

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.
