9 • “PRECISION STEAM JET” FUNCTION:

Move the slide to the upward position: “FRESH OFF” (steam jet without an added “burst of freshness”) (21).

The “precision steam jet” function allows you to: - Iron the most hard-to-reach areas (such as button

holes, shirt cuffs and collars, darts in trousers, the inside of jacket and coat sleeves);

- Soften the fibres before ironing, when the fabric is very creased.

Use:

- With the iron on the ironing board, press the “Precision Steam Jet” button on the iron handle 2 or 3 times to obtain short, powerful bursts of

steam at the front of the iron (22);

- Then iron the fabric using steam from the soleplate (21) to smooth the fibres, by pressing the steam control

button beneath the iron handle (23).

10.VERTICAL STEAM IRONING

1.Set the iron temperature control to the maximum position.

Set the steam output control dial on the control panel to the maximum position.

2. Hang the garment on a coat hanger and hold the fabric slightly taut with one hand. As steam is very hot, never attempt to remove creases from a garment

while it is being worn, always hang garments on a coat hanger. 3. Holding the iron in a vertical position, press repeatedly on the steam

control button (beneath the iron handle) moving the iron from top

to bottom (24).

 

Recommendations :

 

For fabrics other than linen or cotton, hold the iron

 

a few centimetres from the garment to avoid burning

11 • FILLING THE BOILER WHILE IN USE (when the boiler is empty)

VERY IMPORTANT :

 

Before opening your boiler, ensure that there is no more steam left inside

 

by pressing the steam control button located under the handle of the iron

 

and keep it pressed until there is no more steam (25).

 

Never unscrew the boiler cap while the iron is producing steam.

 

1. Press the illuminated on/off switch and disconnect the generator

 

from the mains.

 

2. Slowly unscrew the boiler cap.

 

3. Using a water jug, fill with one litre of water.

(25)

4. Fill the boiler, taking care that the water does not spill over.

 

If this occurs, remove the excess water.

5.Replace the boiler cap, screwing on tightly, reconnect your steam generator to the mains and switch it on.

6.Wait until the boiler has heated up (approximately 7 minutes).

The generator and the iron are ready to use when both the iron’s thermostat light and the “steam ready” indicator go out.
