Frequently Asked Questions - Solo DA200 Eldom

How to use the iron in cordless mode?

Place the iron on the base (12), move the locking button to the low position. Wait for the indicator light (7) to change color indicating the iron has reached temperature. Remove the iron from the base and iron. Put it back on the base regularly to recharge.

How to use the iron with the power cord?

Place the iron on the base (12) aligning the locking button with the cable drawing (14). Move the button to the high position. Turn the iron left or right until you hear a click. The iron is then connected and works like a regular iron.

How to choose the ironing temperature?

Check the garment label. Use the thermostat dial (10): low position for acetate/nylon, medium for silk/wool/polyester, high for cotton/linen. When in doubt, start at low temperature and increase gradually.

How to fill the water tank?

Unplug the appliance and set the steam regulator (3) to '0'. Use the provided container to pour tap water at room temperature. Do not exceed the 'MAX' mark on the tank (9). Do not pour directly under the tap.

What to do if the iron does not produce steam?

Check that the temperature is high enough (MAX or high position) and that the steam regulator (3) is not on '0'. Make sure the water tank is filled. If the problem persists, use the self-cleaning function.

How does the safety auto shut-off work?

If the iron remains stationary in horizontal position, it turns off automatically after about 30 seconds. In vertical position, after about 8 minutes. The indicator light (7) flashes and an audible signal sounds. To restart, shake the iron.

How to clean and descale the iron?

Use the self-cleaning function: fill the water tank, set the thermostat to MAX, wait for the light to change, unplug, then shake the iron horizontally over a sink while operating the steam regulator and the self-cleaning button. Wipe the soleplate after cooling with a damp cloth.

Can I use distilled or demineralized water?

No, it is recommended to use only tap water. Distilled or demineralized water makes the anti-scale system ineffective and alters its physico-chemical properties.

What to do if the power cord is damaged?

If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer's repair center to avoid any hazard. Do not use the appliance with a damaged cord.

How to store the iron after use?

Unplug the iron and let it cool completely. Empty the water tank. Wrap the cord around the base of the iron without tightening too much. Store the iron in a vertical position in a safe place to avoid residual water leaks on the soleplate.

USE

Before the first switching on of the iron, fully unroll the power cord (14). During the initial use of the iron, harmless odour may be emitted. This is short-lasting and has no effect on the operation.

Match the ironing temperature to the type of the fabric. If the type of the fabric is not known, start ironing with the lowest temperature and increase it gradually to achieve positive results.

USING THE APPLIANCE

Regardless of the selected ironing option, place the base (12) on a stable surface.

Wireless ironing

• place the iron on the base (12),
• move the lock button to the symbol,
• after heating, the iron can be removed from the base and you can start ironing,
• often put the iron on the base to charge it during ironing.

Ironing with the power cord

• place the iron on the base (12) so that the sign on the handle coincides with the power cord (14),
• move the lock button to the symbol,
• adjust the iron position by turning it to the left or right until you hear a click,
• the iron will be connected to the charging base and locked,
• after connecting the base, the iron will allow for ironing in wired mode like a regular iron.

TEMPERATURE SELECTION

Always refer to the garment manufacturer's recommendations for the correct temperature setting. Before ironing, always look at the label on your clothing and follow the recommendations on it. If there are no care instructions on the garment, you can follow the instructions in the table below.

If the type of the fabric is unknown, start with the lowest temperature and increase it gradually until a satisfactory result is reached.

If the garment is composed of different materials, select the lowest recommended temperature.

Material Thermostat position
acetate, nylon ·
silk, wool, polyester ·
cotton, linen ·

AUTO-OFF FUNCTION

The iron left unmoving will turn off automatically after about 30 seconds when horizontal and after about 8 minutes when

vertical. Turning off is signalled with the pulsating indicating light (7) and several seconds of audible signal.

Shake the iron to turn it on again.

IRONING WITHOUT STEAM

Before plugging in the iron to the mains, place it on the base (12), set the thermostat knob (10) in the "OFF" position, and the steam regulator (3) in the "0" position (no steam).

Plug in the iron to the mains: the light (7+16) will go on.

Set the temperature with the thermostat knob (10). The light (5) will go on.

Ironing can be started when the light (7) changes color - it means that the iron has reached the required temperature

The thermostat will maintain the selected temperature, which will be signaled by a color change (7).

IRONING WITH STEAM

Ironing with steam and the steam shot function is only possible when high temperature is set. The highest temperature is marked "MAX" on the thermostat knob (10).

Intensity of steam is et with the regulator (3).

The button (4) may be used to release additional volume of steam. The additional steam shot facilitates ironing of exceptionally resistant creases.

NOTE. Steam is hot. Danger of scalding or burns. The sole of the iron is heating up very quickly and needs more time to cool down. It must not be touched

FILLING THE WATER TANK

Before filling or refilling the tank with water, make sure that the plug is removed from the socket and that the steam intensity regulator (3) is set to the "0" position.

Pour clean tap water at room temperature into the iron.

For filling the iron tank use the supplied container adapted in shape to the inlet opening.

Do not pour water into the iron directly from the tap!

When pouring water into the iron, remember that the water level should not exceed the "MAX" mark on the tank (9).

ANTI-CALC SYSTEM

A special filter inside the water tank softens the water and prevents limescale from settling on the soleplate. The filter is durable and does not require replacement.

Caution: Use only tap water. Distilled and demineralised water makes the anti-calc system ineffective, changing its physicochemical properties.

SPRAYER

After water is poured into the tank (9), it may be used to sprinkle the ironed spot with the button (5).

ANTI DRIP

The ANTI DRIP function prevents water from dripping from the sole (11) when the iron temperature is too low to produce steam.

SELF CLEAN

Using the sole self-cleaning function is recommended to prevent scale setting in the iron. To do this:

• fill in the iron full with water,
• plug in the iron to the mains and set the thermostat (10) at "MAX",
• and switch on the unit when the light (7) goes off,
• holding it horizontally, e.g. over a sink, move the steam regulator (3) to the right and hold it in this position for about a minute while shaking the iron at the same time,
• when the iron cools down, wipe the sole with a damp cloth to remove soiling.

CLEANING

Before cleaning, plug out the iron and wait for it to cool down completely.

• The iron must not be immersed in water.
• The iron must not be cleaned with rough, abrasive cloth or sponge, as it may destroy the device.
• Wipe the iron body and the soleplate (11) and base (12) with a damp cloth and then dry with a clean cloth.

RECOMMENDATIONS

• use tap water for the iron,
• reducing temperature with the thermostat knob (10) will not make it go down immediately, you need to wait for the indication light (7) to go on,
• when ironing without steam, the water tank may be empty. Make sure that the steam knob is set to "0". Depending on the type of the fabric, the range of temperatures may be set as needed. If the water tank is full, the sprinkling function may be used,
• when the temperature is set to low, do not use steam,
• before putting the iron away, wait for it to cool down and empty the water tank. For storage, the cord may be loosely wrapped on the base of the iron. Overstretching the cord may damage it,
• the iron should be stored in a safe place, vertically, so that the remains of water in the tank do not damage the sole when dropping out through the steam openings.

PROTECTION OF THE ENVIRONMENT

• The device is made of materials that may be reprocessed or recycled,
• They are to be delivered to the point of collection and recycling of electrical and electronic devices.

GUARANTEE
