FILLING THE WATER TANK
Before filling the iron with water make sure that it
is unplugged.
••
Set the temperature control knob (11) to the
«OFF» position and the continuous steam
supply knob (3) to the lower position – steam
supply is off.
••
Open the water inlet lid (2).
••
Pour water into the water tank (10) using the
beaker (15) and then close the lid (2) tight.
Notes
••
Do not exceed the “MAX” mark.
••
If you need to refill water during ironing,
switch the iron off and unplug it.
••
After you finish ironing, switch the iron
off, wait until it cools down completely,
then open the water inlet lid (2), turn the
iron over and drain the remaining water.
••
Keep the unit out of reach of children and dis-
abled persons.
••
This unit is not intended for usage by children
under 8 years of age. Place the unit out of
reach of children under 8 years of age during
the operation and cooling down.
••
This unit is not intended for usage by people
(including children over 8) with physical, neural
and mental disorders or with insufficient expe-
rience or knowledge. Such persons may use
this unit only if they are under supervision of a
person who is responsible for their safety and
if they are given all the necessary and under-
standable instructions concerning the safe
usage of the unit and information about dan-
ger that can be caused by its improper usage.
••
There may be water residue in the tank, this
is normal, as the iron has undergone factory
quality control.
THE UNIT IS INTENDED FOR HOUSEHOLD
USAGE ONLY
IRONING TEMPERATURE
Before operation test the heated iron on a piece
of cloth to be sure that the iron soleplate (13) and
the water tank (10) are clean.
BEFORE THE THE FIRST USE
After unit transportation or storage under
cold (winter) conditions, it is necessary to
keep it for at least two hours at room tem-
perature before switching on.
••
Always check the recommended ironing
temperature indicated on the tag before
ironing.
••
If there is no tag with the recommended iron-
ing temperature, but you know the type of fab-
ric, use the following table to determine the
proper ironing temperature.
Signs
Fabric type (temperature)
do not iron
•
synthetics, nylon, acryl, polyester
(low temperature)
••
silk/wool (medium temperature)
•••
cotton/linen (high temperature)
••
Unpack the iron; remove the protection from
the iron soleplate (13), if any.
••
Check the unit for damages; do not use the
iron in case of damages.
••
Before switching the unit on, make sure that
your home mains voltage corresponds to the
iron operating voltage.
••
There may be water residue in the tank,
this is normal, as the iron has undergone
factory quality control.
Note: While the first switching on the heating
element of the iron burns, therefore occur-
rence of foreign smell and a small amount of
smoke is possible, it is normal.
WATER SELECTION
Use tap water to fill the tank. If tap water is hard, it is
recommended to mix it with distilled water in propor-
tion 1:1, if tap water is too hard, mix it with distilled
water in proportion 1:2 or use distilled water only.
Note
Do not fill the water tank (10) with scented
liquids, vinegar, starch solution, descaling
reagents, chemical agents etc.
••
This table is only valid for smooth materials.
Fabrics of other types (crimped, raised etc.)
are best ironed at low temperature.
••
Sort items by ironing temperature first: syn-
thetics to synthetics, wool to wool, cotton to
cotton etc.
••
The iron heats up faster than it cools down.
For this reason it is recommended to begin
ironing at low temperature (for instance,
synthetic fabrics). After that, start ironing at
higher temperature (silk, wool). Cotton and
linen items should be ironed last.
