Choose your ironing programme
Your iron has 8 ironing programmes:
•For each program corresponding to a type of textile to be ironed, your iron automati- cally and precisely determines the most suitable temperature and steam flow to guarantee best results.
Spray Function
- While ironing,press a few times in succession on the Spray button to dampen the fabric (H) and iron out obstinate creases.

For more steam (shot of steam button)
- Press the Shot of Steam button from time to time (I) - Wait a few seconds between each shot before pressing the button again.

Vertical steam ironing
-Ideal for removing creases from suits, jackets, skirts, hanging curtains etc
-Hang the garment on a hanger and hold the fabric slightly taut with one hand. The steam is very hot, so you should always do this with the garment on a hanger – never while someone is wearing it.
-Set the iron to program 8 (J).
-Hold the iron a few centimetres from the fabric to avoid burning delicate fabrics.
-Press the Shot of Steam button (
) repeatedly (K), moving the iron from top to bot- tom. (See illustration) (L).

Warning ! Remove any labels from the soleplate before heating up the iron (depending on model).
Warning!
Before using your iron with the steam function for the first time, we recom- mend that you operate it in a horizontal position for a few moments, away from your linen, i.e. press the Shot of Steam button a few times.
During the first few uses, a harmless odour and smoke may be given off. This has no effect on the use of the iron and will disappear quickly.

Recommendations:
Fabrics and ironing temperatures:
•Your iron heats up quickly: so begin by ironing fabrics that are ironed at low tem- peratures first, then go on to those requiring a higher temperature,
•if you change to a program requiring lower temperatures, wait for the thermostat light to come on again before continuing to iron (for models fitted with the
•when ironing fabrics with mixed fibres, set the ironing temperature for the most delicate fibre. For delicate fabrics we recommend testing the fabric first on an inconspicious place eg (inside them).
•For best results we recommend you use a vented ironing board to allow the powerful steam to penetrate through the fabric more efficiently.
•Ensure that the fabric you are ironing is flat to avoid steam venting sideways whilst ironing.
You iron is equipped with an integral
• a better ironing quality with a constant flow of steam,
• a longer life for your iron.
