Frequently Asked Questions - 4Safety Plus EDB5236 ELECTROLUX

How to fill the water tank of the iron?

Unplug the iron, set the steam selector to Dry, open the cap, pour water up to the maximum level (indicator visible on the tank) using the provided cup, then close. Use tap water, preferably distilled or a 50% distilled / 50% tap mix.

How to use the steam blast function?

Make sure the tank is at least half full. Press the steam blast button several times to prime the pump, then press to release steam. The temperature must be set to at least ●● (steam possible).

Why is the iron not producing steam?

Check the water level: fill the tank if necessary. Make sure the steam selector is not on the Dry position. Ensure the temperature is high enough (at least ●● for steam).

How to use the spray function?

The tank must be at least a quarter full. Press the spray button several times to release a fine mist on the fabric. Ideal for pre-dampening before ironing.

What to do if brown marks come out of the soleplate?

This may be due to hard water or burned fibers. Use the self-cleaning function once or several times: fill with water, heat the iron, set the steam button to self-clean and hold for 5 seconds over a sink. Then clean the soleplate with a soft damp cloth. Never use chemical descaling agents.

How does the automatic shut-off work?

If the iron remains stationary on the soleplate or side for 30 seconds, or on the heel for 8 minutes, it turns off automatically. To restart, resume ironing.

What type of water to use?

Tap water is fine, but to prevent scale, it is recommended to use distilled water or a mix of 50% distilled water and 50% tap water.

How to clean the Glissium™ soleplate?

Allow the iron to cool, then wipe the soleplate with a soft damp cloth. For burnt residue, iron over a damp cloth while the iron is still hot. Never use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners.

Can the iron be used in a vertical position?

Yes, the vertical steam function allows you to remove wrinkles from curtains, suits, and delicate hanging fabrics. Hold the iron 10-20 cm from the item and press the steam blast button.

What are the important safety instructions?

Never leave the iron unattended while plugged in. Keep it out of reach of children under 8 years. Do not immerse in water. Unplug before filling the tank. Use on a stable surface. The cord must not touch hot parts.

GETTING STARTED

1. Before first use. Remove all adhesive remains and gently rub with a dampened cloth. Rinse water tank to remove foreign particles. When turned on for the first time, temporary vapours/odours may occur.
2. Filling steam iron with water.

Make sure plug is removed from power outlet.

Turn steam selector to Dry setting and open filling aperture cover. Using beaker provided, pour water up to maximum level. Close cover.

This product is appropriate for use with tap water. It is recommended to use destilled water or a mix of 50% destilled, 50% tap water.

1. Plug power cable into a power outlet. Power indicator light turns on. Set temperature by turning temperature selector to adequate choice. When the light turns off, iron is ready to be used.

2. Using the spray mist and steam jet function.
   Ensure that water tank is at least 1/4 full. Use spray mist to pre-dampen fabrics by pressing spray button several times to release a fine mist (A). To use the steam jet function, ensure that tank is at least 1/2 full. Press steam jet button several times to prime pump (B).

3. Steaming hanging items. Vertical steam jet function is ideal for steaming curtains, suits and delicate fabrics. Hang item on a hanger, hold iron at a distance of 10–20 cm and press steam jet button.
4. 3-way Auto-OFF. If iron is left unattended on soleplate or on the side, it turns off after 30 seconds. If left unattended on the heel, it turns off after 8 minutes. To turn on, just begin to iron again.

CLEANING (DO NOT USE ANY DETERGENT)

7. Always store iron on its heel rest.

To clean exterior surfaces, use a damp soft cloth and wipe dry. Do not use any chemical solvents, as these will damage the surface.

2. Cleaning the soleplate. Do not use scouring pads or harsh cleaners on the soleplate as these will damage the surface. To remove burnt residue, iron over a damp cloth while iron is still hot. To clean the Glissium™ soleplate, simply wipe with soft damp cloth and wipe dry.
