Frequently Asked Questions - Power Ceramic IZ-1108 Izzy

How do I use the steam function on my Izzy Power Ceramic IZ-1108 iron?

Fill the water tank with clean water up to the MAX mark. Select the desired temperature setting. Once the iron reaches temperature, press the steam button or use the variable steam control. For a burst of steam, press the steam boost button.

What type of water should I use?

Use distilled or demineralised water to prevent scale buildup. Tap water may be used if it is soft, but avoid water with high mineral content.

How do I clean the ceramic soleplate?

Allow the soleplate to cool completely. Wipe with a damp cloth or use a non-abrasive cleaner. Do not use scouring pads or harsh chemicals.

How do I descale the iron?

Use the self-cleaning function: fill the tank with water, set the iron to maximum temperature, unplug it, and hold it horizontally over a sink while pressing the self-clean button. Steam and debris will flush out. Repeat as needed.

What does the anti-drip system do?

The anti-drip system prevents water from leaking onto your clothes when the iron is not hot enough. It automatically shuts off steam at low temperatures.

How does the auto shut-off work?

The iron automatically turns off if left untouched for 8 minutes in an upright position or 30 seconds on its side. This safety feature prevents accidents.

Can I use the iron vertically for steaming?

Yes, the iron can be used vertically to steam hanging garments or curtains. Hold the iron upright and press the steam boost button.

Why is my iron not producing steam?

Check that the water tank is filled, the temperature is set high enough (above 2 dots), and the steam control is open. If still not working, use the self-clean function to clear any blockages.

How do I store the iron?

Always unplug and let it cool completely. Empty the water tank. Store in an upright position on its heel rest. Do not wrap the cord tightly around the iron.

Where can I find replacement parts for my Izzy iron?

Contact Izzy customer service or check authorized dealers. Common spare parts include the soleplate, water tank cap, and steam buttons. Not all parts may be repairable.

How to Fill Water

Always disconnect the iron from main supply outlet before filling with water.

1. Move the steam control switch (1) to "0" position and the temperature control switch (5) to "OFF" position.
2. Open the water tank lid (10) and turn the iron at a 45^ angle to a flat, dry surface. Fill the water tank (7) with water to "MAX".
3. Push the water filling cover (10) to close it.

Notes:

• Always check that there is enough water in the water tank during ironing.
- Do not store the iron with water in the water tank.

Draining the Water

Always disconnect the iron from main supply outlet before draining the water.

1. Move the steam control switch (1) to "0" position and the temperature control switch (5) to "OFF position.
2. Open the water tank lid (10) and remove the water from the water tank by holding the iron in a vertical position on the sink.
3. Shake to drain all the water from the pot.

Suitable Water for your Iron

• The iron has an anti-calc filter that reduces the accumulation of scales on the plate. It is recommended to use tap water unless the tap water is very hard. If the water in your area is very hard and contains a lot of salts, mix 50% tap water and 50% demineralised water.
• Do not use water of any chemical composition, water from refrigerators, clothes dryers, batteries, air conditioners, scented water, softener water, and rain water. In these cases, the water contains organic waste or metallic elements that accumulate during heating, causing stains on clothes and help reduce the shelf life of the device.
• The use of water of any chemical composition in accordance with the above cancels the warranty.
• Water containing sediments and salts will cause damage to the plate holes as well as to the intern operation of the iron.

• To ensure maximum appliance life:
- Do not use chemical composition water.
- Self-cleaning function must be performed regularly to remove limscale (see section: "Self-cleaning").

Tips for Better Results

• Divide the washing according to the correct ironing temperatures and in accordance with the International Fabric Care Code, which is on the labels label.
• If you do not know what fabric is made of fabric, determine the appropriate ironing temperature by ironing a point on the fabric that is not apparent when wearing it or using it.
• Silk, woolen and synthetic fabrics should be ironed from the riverside so as not to create shiny patches.
• Wait about 3 minutes before ironing fabrics that are sensitive to heat. Temperature setting takes a certain amount of time to reach the required level, regardless of whether it is higher or lower.
• First iron the fabrics that require the lowest temperature and then the fabrics that require a higher temperature.
• Do not iron metal objects such as zippers, hooks, rings, etc. as these may scratch the plate.
• Fabrics such as velvet and wool and accessories such as gloves, bags, etc. They will recover the brand new look and texture by simply passing the iron near the surface of the cloth and pressing the steam button.
• Fabrics that have some kind of finishing (glossy surfaces, wrinkles, etc.) can be ironed at low temperatures.
• For fabrics containing different fibers in their composition, always choose the appropriate temperature for ironing, which corresponds to the highest percentage of fabric. For example, if a fabric contains 60% polyester and 40% cotton, you should choose the appropriate temperature for the polyester and iron the fabric without steam.
• For woolen fabrics, select the middle temperature and press the steam button (4) intermittently to achieve small steam emissions without touching the iron on the cloth.

Anti-Drip System

• With the anti-drip system, you can perfectly iron even the most sensitive fabrics that need a low temperature.
• The anti-drip system prevents water from dripping through the holes in the iron plate when it is cold or at low temperature.
• During use, this system can produce a loud "click" sound, especially when it is warming up or whe it cools down the iron. This is perfectly normal and indicates that the system is working properly.

Anti-Calc System

The device has a special filter (anti-calc) inside the water tank that softens the water and prevents scale build-up in the soleplate. The filter is permanent and does not need replacing.

Self-Cleaning

Follow the steps below to remove the scales and minerals built up in the steam chamber. The iron will remain in the best condition if this function is performed at least every two weeks or n regularly, depending on the hardness of the water you use and according to usage:

1. Fill the water tank (7) halfway with water as described in the paragraph "Filling with water".
   NOTE: For the self-cleaning function, use only tap water.
2. Plug in.
3. Turn the temperature control switch (5) to the "MAX" position. The temperature indicator light (4) will turn on.
4. When the temperature indicator light (4) turns off, unplug.
5. Hold the iron in a horizontal position above the sink and keep pressing the steam control switch (1) toward the last position “
6. Steam and boiling water will start to come out of the iron plate holes, which contain salts and minerals that have been accumulated in the steam chamber from previous uses.
7. Gently move the iron back and forth by pressing the steam control switch (10) until the water tank is empty.
   Caution: The water that comes out during self-cleaning is very hot. Be very careful not to fall on you.
8. When the water tank is empty, release the steam control switch (1) and move it in the "0" position.
9. Allow the iron to cool down completely.
10. Wipe the soleplate with a cold damp cloth.
