Use
Steam ironing
• Place the iron's temperature control dial according to the type of fabric to be ironed
(see table below).
• The thermostat light comes on. Be careful ! The steam generator is ready when the
thermostat light goes out and when the green "steam ready" light stays on.
• When the iron is in use, the iron thermostat light on the iron comes on and goes off
according to the soleplate temperature requirement without this having any effect
on the use of the appliance.
• To obtain steam, press on the steam control button under the iron handle and keep
it pressed - fig.5. The steam will stop when you release the button.
• Always spray starch onto the reverse side of the fabric to be ironed.
To prime the steam circuit, either
before using the iron for the first
time, or if you have not used the
steam function for a few mi-
nutes, press the steam control
button several times in a row,
holding the iron away from your
clothes. This will enable any cold
water to be ejected from the
steam circuit.
• Iron temperature setting:
- Start with the fabrics to be ironed at a low temperature (•) and finish with those which need higher
temperatures (••• or Max).
- Mixed fibre fabric: set the ironing temperature to the setting for the most delicate fabric.
- Woollen garments: press repeatedly on the steam control button -
without placing the iron on the garment itself.
ECO MODE: Your steam generator iron has an ECO mode function which uses less power whilst still
guaranteeing a sufficient steam flow for you to iron your washing properly. In order to use this
function, once the thermostat of your iron has been correctly set (see table above), press on the ECO
mode button located on the control panel. The ECO mode can be used on all types of fabrics,
nevertheless for very thick or very creased fabrics, we recommend that you use the normal steam flow
for best results.

Dry ironing

• Do not press the steam control button under the iron handle.
Recommendations : for fa-
brics other than linen or cot-
ton, hold the iron a few
centimetres from the gar-
ment to avoid burning the fa-
bric.

Refilling the water tank

• When the red "water tank empty" light starts flashing, it means that you have no more steam.-
The water tank is empty.
• Unplug the steam generator and open the flap on the tank.
• Pour in untreated tap water up to the max mark -
• Replug the generator. Press the "OK" button on the control panel -
light stops flashing, the steam is ready.
