Ironing Tips; Cleaning And Maintenance - Domo DO7114S Mode D'emploi

IRONING TIPS

· Always check first if there is a label on the garment with instructions for ironing. If this is the case, then
always follow these instructions.
· The iron heats up faster than it cools down. Therefore, always iron the garments that require the
lowest temperature first, like synthetic fabrics.
· If a fabric contains several types of fibres, always choose the lowest temperature to iron the
combination of these fibres.
· Silk and other shiny fabrics should be ironed inside-out.
· Velvet and other fabrics that easily become shiny should be ironing with slight pressure, in one
direction. Always keep the iron moving.
· Never iron over zippers or other metal objects in a garment. This can damage the soleplate. Always
iron around such objects.
Caution: if you iron woollen fabrics, the fabric may become shiny. That is why you should turn the
garment inside-out for ironing.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

· Unplug the appliance and let it cool down before cleaning it.
· Wipe residues from the soleplate with a damp cloth or with a non-abrasive (liquid) cleaner.
Caution: Do not use any chemical, steel, wooden or abrasive cleaners to scrape the soleplate.
· Clean the upper part of the iron with a soft, damp cloth.
· Wipe the water drops on the steam generator and the thermal insulation pads with a dry cloth.
· When not using the steam generator for a long time, pour out the water from the water tank and place
the iron on the thermal insulation pads to store the appliance.
CAUTION: Only use tap water (or 50% tap water and 50% demineralized water in case of hard water) in
your steam generator. Careful: De-scaled or de-mineralised water must never be used on its own, but
must be combined with tap water. In case of use of a "softener" and/or perfumed water, brown stains
could emerge, which would cause damage to the steam chamber.
DESCALING
Descale the steam generator regularly in order to extend the life of the appliance and to ensure it
continues to work properly. In order to do this, follow the instructions below:
1. Fill half of the water reservoir with a mixture of 1/3 vinegar and 2/3 water.
2. Put the plug in the wall socket and turn the temperature dial to "dry ironing".
3. The temperature indicator light will light up to show that the appliance
is heating up. Wait until the appliance has heated up and hold the iron
over a sink or sink.
4. Now keep the steam button pressed for one minute to produce
continuous steam. The appliance will clean itself in this way.
ATTENTION: do not come into contact with the hot steam otherwise
you run the risk of severe burning!
5. Next, fill the water reservoir with water alone. Turn the temperature dial
to maximum, and wait until the appliance is up to temperature. Repeat
this cycle of steam spraying with just water 2 to 3 times until the vinegar smell has disappeared.
