Frequently Asked Questions - Stiropiù G40011 G3 Ferrari

How do I fill the water tank?

Pull out the tank by its handle (O), fill with water up to the MAX mark, then push the tank back until it clicks into place. Use demineralized water for best results.

Why does the iron make a pumping noise?

The pumping noise is normal. It is the internal pump transferring water from the tank to the boiler. If the noise is long and strong, check the water level and refill the tank to prevent pump damage.

How do I know when the iron is ready to use?

Wait for both the iron temperature control light (B) and the boiler Steam ready light (K) to turn off. This indicates the plate and boiler have reached the desired temperature.

What temperature should I use for different fabrics?

Refer to the temperature table: synthetic fabrics (acrylic, nylon) at low heat; silk and wool at medium; cotton and linen at high. For blended fabrics, select the setting for the most delicate fiber.

Can I use the iron vertically?

Yes, press the steam button (A) vertically to freshen up curtains or hanging garments. Only use vertical steam at high temperature settings to avoid water dripping.

How often should I descale the boiler?

Descale at least once a month or every 10 uses. Follow the manual: let the unit cool for 2 hours, remove the tank, shake the boiler body, unscrew the cap (L), empty residual water, rinse with 200 ml of water, and repeat 2-3 times.

What should I do if the iron leaks water?

Ensure the temperature is set high enough for steam use (at least medium heat). A few drops at the start are normal while the connecting hose heats up. If leaking persists, check if the soleplate is not too cold or if the boiler is overfilled.

How do I clean the soleplate?

Unplug the iron and let it cool completely. Wipe the soleplate with a damp cloth and a mild non-abrasive detergent. Never use metal scouring pads or sharp objects.

Is the iron safe to leave unattended?

No, never leave the iron unattended when it is plugged in or hot. Always store it on the insulated rubber support and unplug after use. Keep out of reach of children under 8 years.

What type of water should I use?

Demineralized or distilled water is recommended to reduce scale buildup. Do not use water additives, vinegar, or descaling agents in the tank. Tap water may cause excessive fouling not covered by warranty.

GENERAL INFORMATION

At first use, remove the protective film of the plate; due to the presence of a protective oil and residues left over from the film, the plate could emit some smoke. After few uses, the smoke will disappear. When using the product for the first time, repeatedly use the steam (away from clothes) and try to use the iron on a worthless piece of cloth to remove any manufacturing residues that may stain or scratch the fabric.

Thoroughly dry the clothes before iron them, do not iron over buttons and zippers.

When not using the ironing system or during breaks, always store the iron on appropriate insulated rubber placed on the tank and make sure it is stable. Do not leave the product unattended when the plate is hot.

Keep the cord free from knots and tangles. Do not wrap the power cord around the iron, either before or after use, or place it closer to the iron plate when it is hot.

After use, store power cord and steam tube in their wire storages.

When inside the boiler there is a pressure such as to produce steam, do not screw the cap off. Only when the pressure decreases, the cap can be opened.

Do not use the ironing system as a heating unit.

Always unplug the appliance before you fill or empty the tank.

We recommend the use of demineralized water to avoid excessive fouling (not covered by warranty).

Do not fill the tank above the maximum capacity and do not introduce into the tank mixtures for removing stain, vinegar, descaling agents or chemicals in general.

Use the appropriate refill cup to fill the tank of the boiler; do not fill it directly under the tap or with very cold liquids. Always select the most suitable temperature according to the fabric to be ironed.

After ironing, drain all the water pushing the appropriate release button, empty the tank and wait for the cooling of all parts before storing the system.

The iron must be used and rested on a stable surface. Do not pull the cord to unplug the unit.

The iron should not be used if it has been dropped, if there are visible signs of damage or if it leaks.

If the internal pump makes a long and strong noise, check if there is water in the container, and fill it immediately to avoid pump damaging.

CAUTION: the iron plate gets very hot during use, be careful not to touch it, serious risk of burns. Do not put your face near the steam coming out the iron plate.

NEVER REMOVE the plastic cap (L) if the unit is still hot or when it has been used recently.

CAUTION: rinse the boiler once a month, or every 10 uses, to avoid damages due to limestone. In this way,

the limestone inside the boiler will not settle on the walls. Descale once or twice a month to keep the equipment in good condition.

INSTALLATION

Place the ironing system on a stable surface, away from heat sources.

On first use, or after the iron has been unused for long time, it is recommended to expel steam by pushing the button (A) for about 20 seconds. This allows to eliminate any working or limestone leftovers.

When you turn on the device, it can emit a pumping noise. This is normal: it is the internal pump that pour water into the boiler.

FILLING THE TANK

• Take the tank handle (O)
• Pull out the container (M)
• Fill the tank with water up to "MAX" sign.
• Replace the container (M) until it snaps.

It is possible to refill the container at all times. If the internal pump makes a long and strong noise, check if there is water in the container, and fill it immediately to avoid pump damaging.

We recommend the use of demineralized water to prevent excessive fouling (not covered by warranty).

When using the product for the first time or after a descaling operation, plenty of water will be pumped into the boiler. After pumping, it is recommended to fill the tank (M) for having a better operating time.

- Power on the unit by pressing the button (G). The lights (E and K) will switch on.

CAUTION: when the tank control light (K) shuts down, it means that the boiler is ready to produce steam. During normal operation, the light lights on intermittently.

- Adjust the temperature using the control knob (D) according to the fabric to be ironed (see table at page 7). The plate temperature control light (B) will light up to indicate the iron is heating.

CAUTION: when the light shuts down it means that the plate has reached the desired temperature. During normal operation, the light comes on intermittently. The emission of the vapor is only possible with temperatures above ● ●.

Start ironing only when the lights of iron (B) and of boiler (K) are both off.

- For the use of steam, horizontally or vertically, press button (A).

During use the appliance will periodically fill the inner boiler taking water from the container (M).

CAUTION: when using the steam, wait for the complete heating of both the iron and the boiler. In the beginning, few drops will come out together with the steam. This is normal and it is due to the heating of the cable connecting the boiler and iron.

TEMPERATURE SETTING

The following table provides a guideline on how to adjust the thermostat according to the international symbols printed on the clothing labels or according to the type of fabric.

LABEL	FABRIC	TEMPERATURE
	Synthetic (Acrylic, nylon...)	Low temperature
	silk – wool	Medium temperature
	cotton – linen	High temperature
	Do not iron

• It is recommended ironing clothes that require low temperatures first and then medium and high temperatures. This operation allows to save time since ironing plate heats faster than it cools down.
• In the case of blend fabric(Ex: Acrylic and cotton), it is recommended to select the temperature according to the fabric that requires the lowest.
• When you do not know the composition, it is recommended to iron a non-visible part of the it, starting from the lowest temperature to find the most suitable temperature.
• Sometimes the clothing becomes shiny, in this case you need to iron it on the inside not to ruin it. When ironing at maximum temperature (MAX), it is recommended to place a cloth between the ironing plate and the fabric.

Setting the temperature

1) Place the iron on the insulated rubber housing above the boiler.
2) Plug the system to the electrical outlet.
