Frequently Asked Questions - VVX 1660 DELONGHI

Which water should I use in my De'Longhi VVX 1660 steam station?

Use tap water. If the water is very hard (hardness above 27°F), mix 50% demineralized water with 50% tap water. Never use demineralized water alone, nor mineral water, scented essences, or chemical products.

Why does water come out of the soleplate holes?

Check that the iron's thermostat adjustment button is in the steam zone (see fig. 7 of the manual). If the iron hasn't been used for a while, press the steam button several times away from the ironing board to expel condensation water.

What to do if steam escapes from the bottom of the appliance?

This may indicate activation of the maximum pressure safety system. Immediately stop the appliance and contact an Authorized Technical Assistance Center.

Why are there brown streaks on the soleplate?

This is usually caused by the use of anti-scale products or additives in the tank. Never pour such products. Clean the soleplate with a damp cloth.

Why does smoke come out during first use?

This is normal: the glues and lubricants used for assembly evaporate during first heating. Ventilate the room; the phenomenon will disappear after a few uses.

How to rinse the boiler?

Perform rinsing every 10 uses following the procedure on page 6 of the user manual. This removes limescale deposits and extends the life of the appliance.

What does the 'water shortage' indicator mean?

The indicator shows that the water tank is empty. Fill it immediately to avoid damaging the pump. A louder pump noise is normal during water shortage.

Can I use an adapter or extension cord?

It is not recommended to use adapters, multiple sockets, or extension cords. Plug directly into a grounded outlet of at least 10 A.

How to lock the iron in transport position?

Place the tip of the soleplate in the designated housing (mark B) and slide the J slider to the lock position. Never use the locked iron as a carrying handle.

What to do if the appliance does not turn on?

Check that the appliance is plugged in and that the power buttons (iron and boiler) are pressed. If the problem persists, contact an authorized service.

*Important:

• When the water in the tank has run out, the pump becomes noisier. This is part of normal operation and is not a cause for concern. However, you are recommended to top up the water in the tank immediately.
• When the "no water" light comes on, you should top up the water in the tank as rapidly as possible. This will enable you to continue ironing after a short interruption.
• When the "no water" light comes on, you should not continue steam ironing with the pump vibrating. If this practice is continued, in the long run it could irreparably damage internal components.

Symbols used in these instructions

Important warnings are identified by these symbols.

It is vital to respect these warnings.

Danger!

Failure to observe the warning may result in life threatening injury by electric shock.

Important!

Failure to observe the warning could result in injury or damage to the appliance.

Nota Bene:

This symbol identifies important advice or information for the user.

Fundamental safety warnings

Danger of electric shock!

This is an electrical appliance and may cause electric shock.

You should therefore respect the following safety warnings:

• Never touch the appliance with damp hands.
• Never use the appliance with bare or wet feet.
• Never immerse the appliance in water.
• Never unplug the appliance by pulling the power cable or the appliance itself.
  If the socket and power cable plug are incompatible, the socket should be changed for a suitable type by a qualified professional.

Adapters, multiple sockets or extensions should not be used.

To fill or top up with water, turn the ironing system off using the switch, then unplug from the mains. Never fill the appliance under running water.
Always unplug the appliance from the mains socket before filling the tank with water.
If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or the manufacturer's Customer Services in order to avoid all risk.
Before cleaning or servicing, disconnect the appliance by unplugging from the mains.
In the event of malfunction and/or faulty operation, switch off the appliance and take it to Customer Services.
Before using the appliance, check that the mains supply voltage corresponds to the voltage indicated on the rating plate. Connect the appliance to an efficiently earthed power supply and sockets with a minimum current rating of 10 A only.

Danger of burns!

• Never aim the steam at persons or animals.
• The user must never leave the iron unattended when plugged in.
  During use, the steam generator should not be moved.
• IMPORTANT: the tube connecting the iron and steam generator may become hot.
• All contact between the hot base and cables must be rigorously avoided.

Attention!

After removing the packaging, make sure the appliance is complete and undamaged. If in doubt, do not use the appliance and contact qualified personnel only.
- Dispose of the plastic bag with care as it represents a hazard for children.
- The appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children must be supervised to ensure they do not play with the appliance.
- NEVER mix the water in the tank with stain removers, additives or perfumed oils. This reduces the safety of the appliance and irreparably damages the steam generator which would have to be replaced.

NEVER rest the iron on the case of the appliance when the iron rest is removed.

Use the removable iron rest on an ironing board.

NEVER use the iron rest on a table. The heat could ruin the surface of the table!

"Safe transport": certain models are fitted with a locking system which locks the iron in position during transport.

When the iron is locked in position, it must not be used as a carrying handle to transport the appliance! To position the iron correctly, insert the tip of the plate into the housing B, rest the iron in position and move the lock J to the locking position.

To release the iron, move the lock J into the release position and remove the iron from its housing. While ironing, if the iron rest has not been removed from the appliance, you can rest the tip of the iron on the heat resistant base C above the housing B.

• The appliance must be used and rested on a stable heat resistant surface.

• When placing the iron on the iron rest, make sure the appliance is resting on a stable surface. NEVER store the iron in a vertical position!

• Do not use the appliance if it has been dropped and there are visible signs of damage or leaks. If the ironing system is dropped causing visible damage to the appliance (steam generator or iron), do not use. Take to Customer Services.

Designated use

• This appliance must be used exclusively for the purpose for which it was expressly conceived. Any other use is considered improper and thus dangerous.
• The manufacturer is not liable for damage caused by inappropriate, incorrect or irresponsible use or for damage resulting from repairs carried out by unqualified personnel.

What water to use

The appliance works with normal tap water.

! Important!

In case of very hard water (hardness above 27^ ) we suggest using demineralised water diluted with 50% tap water. Never use demineralised water on its own.

Never use chemical substances or detergents (e.g. perfumed water, essences, descaling solution, etc).

Do not use mineral or other types of water (such as rainwater or water for batteries or air conditioners etc.).

! Important!

If you use filtering devices, make sure the water obtained has a neutral pH.

Using the appliance for the first time

• The first time you use the appliance, the steam generator is empty. When filling the steam generator for the first time, it will take longer to heat up as the air must be eliminated from the steam generator and replaced by the water. During filling/heating it is normal for the pump to make a noise.
• The appliance will also run out of water much more quickly than with subsequent fills.
• When used for the first time, the appliance may give off smoke and an odour for several minutes. This is caused by heating and subsequent drying of the sealers used in assembling the steam generator and iron. You are recommended to ventilate the room.
  Each time the iron is used (including for the first time) or if you have not used steam for several minutes, press the steam delivery button a number of times away from the
