• Do not use the appliance if it has fallen on the oor, if there are visible signs of damage or if it has a leak.

• Unplug the appliance from the mains before relling the water tank.

• The temperature of the accessi- ble surfaces may be high when the appliance is in use.

• If the connection to the mains has been damaged, it must be replaced, take the appliance to an authorised technical sup- port service. Do not attempt to disassemble or repair the appliance by yourself in order to avoid a hazard.

• Ensure that the voltage indicated on the rating label and the voltage selected on the voltage selector matches the mains voltage before plugging in the appliance.

• Connect the appliance to a base with an earth socket withstanding a minimum of 16 amperes.• The appliance’s plug must t into the mains socket properly. Do not alter the plug. Do not use plug adaptors.

• Do not leave the appliance out in the rain or exposed to moisture. If water gets into the appliance, this will increase the risk of electric shock.

• Do not force the power cord. Never use the power cord to lift up, carry or unplug the appliance.

• Do not allow the power cord to hang or to come into contact with the hot surfaces of the appliance.

• Check the state of the power cord. Damaged or tangled cables increase the risk of electric shock.

• Do not touch the plug with wet hands.

• Do not use the appliance if the cable or plug is damaged.

• If any of the appliance casings breaks, immedia- tely disconnect the appliance from the mains to prevent the possibility of an electric shock.

• Do not touch the heated parts of the appliance, as it may cause serious burns. USE AND CARE:

• Fully unroll the appliance’s power cable before each use.

• Use the appliance handle, to catch it or move it.

• To keep the non-stick treatment in good condi- tion, do not use metal or pointed utensils on it.

• Respect the MAX level indicator. (Fig.1).

• Disconnect the appliance from the mains when not in use and before undertaking any cleaning task.

• This appliance is for household use only, not professional, industrial use.

• Store this appliance out of reach of children and/ or persons with physical, sensory or reduced mental or lack of experience and knowledge.

• Do not store or transport the appliance if it is still hot.

• Keeping the iron in its housing support at maximum temperature for too long time, may cause its colour change, which will not affect the correct working order of the appliance.

• For a correct operation, keep the soleplate in proper conditions does not operate over metal objects (ironing board metal parts, buttons, zips etc.).

• It is advisable to use distilled water, especially if the water in your area contains clay or if it is “hard” (containing lime or magnesium).

• Check that the lid is closed properly before starting the appliance.

• Never leave the appliance connected and unat- tended if is not in use. This saves energy and prolongs the life of the appliance.

• Never rest the appliance into a surface while in use.

• Do not use the appliance on any part of the body of a person or animal.

• Do not use the appliance with pets or animals.

• Turn the thermostat control to the minimum (MIN) setting. This does not mean that the iron is switched off permanently. SERVICE:

• Any misuse or failure to follow the instruc- tions for use renders the guarantee and the manufacturer’s liability null and void.

• Ensure that the selected tension on the voltage selector coincides with the tension of the mains.

• To eliminate the smell given off by the appliance when used for the rst time, it is recommended to have it on at full power for 2 hours in a well- ventilated room.

• Prepare the appliance according to the function you wish to use. VOLTAGE SELECTOR:

• The appliance has a voltage selector control, situate the selector according to the type of vol- tage available in the mains where the appliance is to be connected. (Fig.2). FILLING WITH WATER:

• It is essential to have lled the deposit with water to be able to work with steam.

• Open water inlet lid.

• Fill the deposit taking care to observe the MAXlevel (Fig.1).

• Close water inlet lid. USE:

• Unroll the cable completely before plugging it in.

• Connect the appliance to the mains.

• Slide the thermostat control to the desired tem- perature position.

• The pilot light (D) comes on.

• Do not use temperatures higher than those indicated on the garments to be treated. - ● Temperature for synthetic bres (Polyester, Nylon…). - ●● Temperature for silk and wool. - ●●● Temperature for cotton. (Minimum tempera- ture for steam ironing) - Max Temperature for linen.

• If garment has various kinds of bres, select the temperature for the bre that requires the lowest temperature. (For example, select the tempera- ture for polyester for an article made out of 60% polyester and 40% cotton).

• Wait until the pilot light has gone out which will indicate that the appliance has reached an adequate temperature.

• During the appliance’s use the pilot light will come on and off automatically, indicating the heating elements are working, and therefore maintaining the desired temperature. DRY IRONING:

• The appliance has an option to dry ironing (without steam). To use this option turns on only the iron switch. STEAM IRONING:

• It is possible to iron with steam whenever the deposit is lled with water and the adequate temperature is selected. FORDABLE HANDLE:

• By pressing the button (H) the handle is folded for an easy storage. STEAM BLAST:

• This function proportions extra steam for elimi- nating wrinkles.

• Press the steam blast button (A). Wait a few seconds until vapour penetrates the bres of the garment before pushing the button again. For optimum steam quality, do not apply more than three successive blasts.

• The steam blast button has to be pressed repeatedly to release the rst shot. VERTICAL STEAMING:

• It is possible to iron hanging curtains, items of clothing on his hanger, etc. To do so, follow the instructions:

• Select the maximum temperature of the iron, while turning the temperature regulator of the iron in a clockwise direction.

• Move the iron in a top to bottom direction while pressing the steam control (A). Important: for cotton and linen, it’s recommended to put the iron base in contact with the material. For other more delicate bres, it’s recommended to keep the iron base at some centimetres of distance.

• Select the minimum position (MIN) using the thermostat control.

• Unplug the appliance from the mains.

• Remove the water from the inside of the appliance.

• Clean the appliance. PRACTICAL RECOMMENDATIONS:

• Classify the garments into groups by ironing temperature. The appliance heats up more quickly than it cools down, therefore, to avoid accidents, minimise energy consumption and optimise time, it is advisable to start off ironing items that require lower temperatures and pro- gress to those that need higher temperatures.

• Pure wool fabrics (100%) can be ironed with the iron set to steam. Select a high steam tempera- ture and place a cotton cloth between the iron’s metal surface and the garment. CLEANING

• Disconnect the appliance from the mains and allow it to cool before undertaking any cleaning task.

• Clean the equipment with a damp cloth with a few drops of washing-up liquid and then dry.

• Do not use solvents, or products with an acid or base pH such as bleach, or abrasive products, for cleaning the appliance.

• Never submerge the appliance in water or any other liquid or place it under running water.HOW TO DEAL WITH LIME SCALE INCRUSTA- TIONS:

• For the appliance to work correctly it should be kept free of limescale or magnesium incrusta- tions caused by the use of hard water.

• To avoid this kind of problem it is advisable to use distilled water.

• To prevent this kind of problem, we recommend the use of water with low lime or magnesium mineralisation.

• However, if it is not possible to use the kind of water recommended above, you should periodi- cally remove the limescale from the appliance: - Every 6 weeks if the water is “very hard”. - Every 12 weeks if the water is “hard”.

• To do so, we recommend the use of the specic product for this kind of appliance, which can be found in specialised shops and authorised technical services.

• A specic anti-lime scale product should be used on this kind of product.

• Homemade solutions are not recommended in the decaling of this appliance, such as the use of vinegar.
