FABRIC-PROTECTION BLANKET
(Only for PV1517)
The fabric-protection is used for steam-ironing
delicate garments at maximum temperature
without damaging them.
Use of the protector also does away with
the need for a cloth to prevent shine on dark
materials.
It is advisable to first iron a small section on the
inside of the garment to see if it is suitable.
SELF-CLEANING (Fig. 8)
CAUTION! Do this operation over a sink. To
keep steam production constant occasional
cleaning is recommended as limescale can build
up inside the steam ducts and steam chamber.
To do this fill the water tank (2), setting the
temperature regulator (8) to the "MAX" position.
Plug the appliance in and when the lamp (9)
goes out press the "Funcion calc" button (10)
down.
Keep the button held down until water stops
coming out through the steam holes.
ANTI-DRIP SYSTEM
(Only for PV1516 & PV1517)
This iron is equipped with an anti-drip safety
system which automatically cuts off steam
production whenever the selected temperature
setting is too low.
ANTI-SCALE SYSTEM
(Only for PV1516)
This iron is equipped with an anti-scale system
which lowers the hardness of the water and
extends the useful life of the iron.
EMPTYING OUT THE WATER TANK
Take the plug out of the mains socket, open the
lid on the filling spout and empty out the tank by
holding the iron pointed-end down and shaking
it gently.
STORAGE (Fig. 9)
The iron can be stored away with the cable
coiled up in the rear area. It is advisable to store
the iron in the upright position with the water
tank empty and the steam regulator set to "
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
Avoid scratching the iron; do not pass it over
hard surfaces. Traces of starch or sprays can be
removed from the base by using damp cotton
wool or a non abrasive cleaning product.
Do not put chemicals or detergents into the
water tank.
The outside surfaces can be cleaned down
with a damp cloth, without ever having to use
abrasive agents or solvents.
