Using your steam generator

The first time the appliance is used, there may be some fumes and smell but this is

not harmful. They will not affect use and will disappear rapidly.

•Completely unwind the power cord and the steam cord from its storage space.

•Lower the retaining hoop (depending on model) to unlock the safety catch – fig.3.

•Plug in your steam generator to an earthed socket.

•Press on the on / off switch. The green light (located on the control panel) flashes and the boiler heats up – fig.7.

When the green “steam ready” light stops flashing (after 2 minutes approxima- tely), the appliance is ready.

Operating the control panel

•Green light flashes: the boiler heats up. – fig.7.

•Green light on: the steam is ready – fig.7.

•Red light “water tank” on: the water tank is empty – fig.10.

•Orange light “boiler rinse” flashes: rinse the boiler – fig.12.

Use

Steam ironing

•Place the iron's temperature control slide according to the type of fabric to be ironed (see table below).

•The thermostat light comes on. Be careful ! The steam generator is ready when the thermostat light goes out and when the green “steam ready” light stays on.

•Adjust the steam output control dial (located on the control panel).

•While ironing, the light on top of the iron and the steam ready light turn on and off, as the temperature adjusts without interrupting ironing.

•To obtain steam, press on the steam control button under the iron handle and keep it pressed – fig.8. The steam will stop when you release the button.

•When starting, and regularly while it is being used, your steam generator's electric pump injects water into the boiler. It makes a noise but this is quite normal. You may also hear a clicking noise which is the steam valve opening. Again this is normal.

•Always spray starch onto the reverse side of the fabric to be ironed.

Do not place the iron on a metal support.When taking a break from ironing, always place the iron on the iron rest plate of the unit. It is equipped with non-slip pads and has been designed to withstand high temperatures.
