Storing your generator

GB

 

•Press the illuminated on/off switch and unplug the generator. Store the electrical cord in its storage place – fig.21.

•Raise the retaining hoop over the iron until it locks into place (audible click) – fig.2.

•Your iron is then safely retained on its base. Warning: do not touch the soleplate while still hot.

•Slot the extension cord outlet in the notch (depending on model). Take the end of the cord support and press to return the flexible part into the base.

•Store the steam cord in its slide storage place. Take it, fold it in two so as to make a loop. Put the end of this loop in the slide storage place then push gently until you see the end on the other side of the slide storage place – fig.22.

•Leave the iron (and the iron rest) to cool down for 30 minutes.

•You can then put your steam generator away, carrying it by the handle – fig.1.

GV7120, GV7150 specifications

Groupe SEB is a renowned name in the small appliance industry, particularly recognized for its innovative cooking and home care products. Among its popular offerings are the T-FAL GV7150 and GV7120 steam generators, which exemplify the company’s commitment to quality and performance in ironing technology.

The T-FAL GV7150 and GV7120 steam generators feature powerful steam output systems designed for superior wrinkle removal and fabric care. The burst of steam capability ensures that even the toughest creases can be eliminated with ease, making these models ideal for both casual and serious users. With continuous steam output, they provide efficient performance, significantly reducing the time spent on ironing.

One of the main technologies employed in both models is the high-pressure steam system. This system allows for deep penetration into the fabric, which enhances the overall efficiency of the ironing process. The GV7150 delivers a continuous steam output of up to 120 g/min, while the GV7120 offers a slightly lower, yet impressive output. This makes both models adept at handling a variety of materials, from delicate fabrics to sturdy garments.

Another notable feature is the large removable water tank, which allows for easy refills and optimal ironing sessions without constant interruptions. The GV7150 has a water tank capacity of 1.6 liters, enabling longer ironing periods before needing to refill, while the GV7120, with its slightly smaller tank, also supports extended use. This aspect proves especially beneficial for larger household tasks, providing convenience and efficiency.

Safety features are paramount, and both models are equipped with an automatic shut-off function. This feature activates when the steam generator is left unattended, providing peace of mind for users and minimizing the risk of accidents.

Furthermore, the T-FAL GV7150 and GV7120 come with a unique Anti-Calc system that helps prevent limescale build-up. This prolongs the life of the machine and maintains optimal steam output. Their lightweight design enhances maneuverability, making it easier to navigate around fabrics while ironing.

In conclusion, the T-FAL GV7150 and GV7120 steam generators by Groupe SEB USA stand out for their powerful steam output, innovative technologies, and user-friendly features, all designed to simplify the ironing process and deliver outstanding results. Both models perfectly cater to the needs of various users, promising not only efficiency but also quality fabric care.
