IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS Please read these instructions carefully before using the appliance. Important: People (including children) who are not able to use the appliance in a safe way, due to their physical, sensorial or mental capacity or their lack of experience or knowledge, must never use the appliance except if they are supervised by a person responsible for their safety or if they previously received instructions concerning the safe use of the appliance. Close supervision is necessary to prevent children from using the appliance as a toy. Always place the base of the appliance on a stable ironing board, table or on the ground. Check that your mains voltage corresponds to that stated on the rating plate of the appliance. Only connect the appliance to a mains earthed wall socket. To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another high wattage appliance on the same circuit. If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, a 10-ampere or higher cord should be used. Never use cords rated for less than 10-ampere. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it cannot be pulled or tripped over. Never leave the appliance unsupervised when switched on and especially the steam iron when it is heating. From time to time check the appliance for damages. Never use the appliance if cord or appliance shows any signs of damage but have it checked and repaired by a competent qualified service

. Should the cord be damaged, it must be replaced by a competent qualified service (*) Only use the appliance for domestic purposes and in the way indicated in these instructions. Never immerse the iron or the base in water or any other liquid for any reason whatsoever. Never use the appliance near hot surfaces. Do not allow power cord and cord binding the base to the steam iron to touch hot surfaces. Never use the appliance outside and always place it in a dry environment. Never use accessories that are not recommended by the producer. They could constitute a danger to the user and risk to damage the appliance. Never move the appliance by pulling the cord. Make sure the cord cannot get caught in any way. Do not wind the cord around the appliance and do not bend it. Always unplug the appliance when it is not in use. Burns can occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water, or steam. Always place the iron on the base of the appliance, on the foreseen place. Do not place iron on its rear cover. Be sure that it does not come in contact with flammable materials or with the mains cord. Never fill the water tank with vinegar, descaling agents or other chemicals. Never use the appliance without the water tank and its anti-scale cartridge. Before using for the first time remove any sticker or protective foil from the soleplate. Clean the soleplate with a soft cloth. Some parts of the iron have been slightly greased and as a result the iron might slightly smoke when switched on for the first time. After a short while, however, this will cease. The iron shall be used and placed on a stable level surface. Do not use the iron if it has fallen, if it shows any visible signs of damage or if it leaks. When you place the iron on its support (if available with the model), make sure that the surface on which you put it is stable. Copies of the I/B.

Fax [phone] Proceed the same way if the water tank stops working or is damaged. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the iron or steam tank, take it to a qualified technician for examination and repair. Incorrect re-assembly can cause a risk of electric shock when the iron or steam tank is used. Fully unwind the mains cord and supply hose before starting to iron. The steam tank switch should always be turned to “0” before plugging or unplugging the power cord from outlet. Unplug the appliance and allow the iron and the water tank cool down before cleaning or storing them and for pressurized steam iron station (depending on the model) before opening, filling or emptying the water tank. FOR PRESSURIZED STEAM IRONING STATION (DEPENDING ON THE MODEL), NEVER UNSCREW THE CAP OF THE STEAM TANK WHILE THE APPLIANCE IS CONNECTED TO THE MAINS WALL SOCKET AND ESPECIALLY WHEN STEAM IS BEING PRODUCED.

Competent qualified service: after sales department of the producer or importer or any person who is qualified, approved and competent to perform this kind of repairs in order to avoid all danger. In any case you should return the appliance to this service.

STEAM IRON: USE PRECAUTION AND TEMPERATURES

Choose the temperature according to the fabrics. Check the garment's label before choosing the temperature. If ironing instructions are missing but you know the kind of fabric, then see the table for recommended ironing temperatures.

As soon as you plug in the appliance, the iron is switched on, even if you haven't activated the water tank's switch. The illuminated switch of the water tank (2) switches on as soon as you press the switch and stays on as long as the switch is on "I" position. Set the temperature dial of the iron (1) to the desired position. The pilot light of the iron (6) will come on, indicating that the iron is heating. As soon as the desired temperature is reached, the pilot light will go out, you can start ironing. During ironing this pilot light will come on from time to time. When this happens, the soleplate is being heated-up to the required temperature again. You can continue ironing. The table is valid for the fibre materials only. If some kind of finish has been applied (gloss, wrinkle, relief etc), the textile can best be ironed at a lower temperature. First sort out the Kind of textile Temperature dial Steam ironing Synthetic (e.g. acetate, acrylic, viscose, Polyamide, polyester, ….) Silk

Fax [phone] fabrics according to ironing temperature: wool with wool, cotton with cotton, etc. The iron heats up quicker than it cools down. Therefore, start ironing the articles requiring the lowest temperature such as those made of synthetic fibres. Then progress to the higher temperatures. If the article is made of a mixture of different fibres, you must always select the lowest ironing temperature of the composition of those fibres (E.g. an article consisting of 60% polyester and 40% cotton should be ironed at the temperature indicated for polyester and without steam). If you do not know what kind of fabric(s) the article has been made of, find a spot, which will be invisible when wearing or using the article to try out the ironing temperature. (Always start at a low temperature and increase to one, which gives the required results). Pure woollen fabrics (100% wool) may be pressed with the iron set to a steam position. It is recommended to apply shot-of-steam and use a dry pressing cloth. When steam-ironing woollen fabrics, shining of the fabric may occur. This can be prevented by turning the article inside out and ironing the inside or by interposing a light damp cloth. Velvet and other textures that rapidly acquire shiny spots should be ironed in one direction only (with the nap), applying only light pressure. Always keep the iron moving. Iron the reverse side of synthetic materials and silk, it is not advisable to use steam as this may cause stains. FILLING WITH WATER (FOR STEAM-IRONING) Make sure the appliance is unplugged. Put the switch of the water tank (2) in off position (0). Position the base of the appliance on a stable flat surface and unscrew the cap by simultaneously pressing it down and turning it anticlockwise (if you left water in the tank and the cap screwed, a light degazing will happen during the next use. It‟s normal and presents no danger). Use the funnel to fill the steam tank with water (max. 500 ml). You can use tap water, however, if the water is very hard, it is advisable to use distilled water. Never use vinegar, descaling agents or other chemicals. Close the steam tank by turning the screw cap clockwise (see page 4).

FILLING WITH WATER WHILE IRONING

CAUTION: WHEN THE APPLIANCE IS IN OPERATION, THE STEAM TANK WILL BE UNDER PRESSURE WITH HOT STEAM. FIRST OF ALL BE SURE THAT THERE IS NO MORE STEAM IN THE WATER TANK. THE BASE AND THE IRON STILL BEING PLUGGED IN, BLEED THE TANK BY PUSHING THE BUTTON (3) UNTIL NO MORE STEAM ESCAPES, THEN SWITCH OFF THE BASE (SWITCH 2 IN OFF-POSITION (0)) AND UNPLUG THE APPLIANCE. CAREFULLY UNSCREW THE CAP IN ORDER TO CHECK IF THERE IS NO MORE STEAM AND THEN UNSCREW IT COMPLETELY. LET THE TANK COOL DOWN A FEW MINUTES AND THE FILL IT AGAIN. CAUTION: IF YOU FILL IT TOO EARLY, STEAM OR HOT WATER WILL ESCAPE FROM THE OPENING. WE ADVISE YOU TO PROCEED SLOWLY WHEN YOU FILL IN ESPECIALLY AT THE BEGINNING. FINALLY CLOSE THE WATER TANK WITH THE CAP. YOUR APPLIANCE IS READY TO OPERATE. STEAM IRONING Fill the water tank with water and insert the mains plug into a wall socket. As indicated on the temperature dial (1) and the table, steam ironing is only possible at higher ironing temperatures, so set the dial to or . Copies of the I/B.

Don‟t change the page numbering. Keep the language integrity.

Fax [phone] When you put the switch (2) on "I" position, the illuminated switch will come on. It stays on permanently, indicating that the water tank is switched on. Set the temperature dial of the iron (1) to the desired position. When the water tank has reached the desired temperature, its pilot light (10) will come on. You can now use the steam function. Press the steam button (3) to release steam from the soleplate of the iron. Release the button and the steam will stop. If you want a continuous jet of steam, slide the locking button of the burst of steam button (4) backwards. To stop the steam, slide this button forward. When ironing, the pilot light of the iron (6) will go on and off from time to time. This means that the temperature of the iron is regulated by its thermostat. You can continue ironing. When you use a lot of steam in a very short time, the steam output is lightly reduced until your appliance produces enough steam to reduce the difference. This phenomenon also happens when there isn‟t enough water in the water tank.

STEAMING IN A VERTICAL POSITION

You have to hang the cloth you want to smooth out avoiding the creases and place the iron in a vertical position at a few centimetres from the piece of cloth. Then move the iron while pressing the burst of steam button. DRY IRONING For ironing without steam, do not press the steam button (3).

WHEN FINISHED IRONING

Unplug the appliance and let it cool down. It is not necessary to empty the water tank. We recommend placing the iron on its base when you store it. The therefore foreseen place is non-slip and will not damage the soleplate of the iron. CLEANING The plastic parts of the appliance can be cleaned with a damp cloth. To clean the soleplate of the iron, you will find specific products in the shops. Please also read the instructions of use. Never use abrasive products to clean it. Never immerse the appliance in water or any other liquid.
