FOIRE AUX QUESTIONS - PRO 160 R DELONGHI

Comment remplir le réservoir d'eau ?

Débranchez l'appareil, attendez qu'il refroidisse (environ 15 minutes), puis dévissez lentement le capuchon de sécurité en appuyant dessus et en tournant dans le sens antihoraire. Remplissez avec de l'eau du robinet ou distillée si l'eau est calcaire. Revissez le capuchon en appuyant et en tournant dans le sens horaire jusqu'à la butée.

Pourquoi la vapeur ne sort-elle pas ?

Vérifiez que les voyants de chauffe (chaudière et fer) sont allumés et que le voyant 'vapeur prête' est allumé. Si vous n'avez pas utilisé la vapeur depuis plusieurs minutes, appuyez plusieurs fois sur le bouton de vapeur pour évacuer l'eau froide. Assurez-vous également que le réservoir d'eau n'est pas vide.

Comment utiliser la fonction vapeur continue ?

Si votre modèle est équipé du bouton de vapeur continue (9), appuyez sur ce bouton puis faites glisser le verrou vers l'arrière pour le bloquer. Pour arrêter, ramenez le verrou en position initiale.

Que faire si le voyant de manque d'eau s'allume ?

Éteignez la chaudière avec le bouton (2), puis appuyez sur le bouton de vapeur (8) pour évacuer la vapeur résiduelle. Éteignez le fer avec le bouton (3), débranchez l'appareil et attendez plusieurs minutes qu'il refroidisse. Ensuite, dévissez lentement le capuchon et remplissez d'eau.

Puis-je repasser à la verticale ?

Oui, le fer à vapeur permet le repassage vertical pour les vêtements, rideaux, etc. Maintenez le fer à quelques centimètres du tissu et appuyez sur le bouton de vapeur.

Comment nettoyer la semelle du fer ?

Attendez que la semelle refroidisse, puis essuyez-la avec un chiffon humide. N'utilisez jamais de produits détartrants ou abrasifs qui pourraient l'endommager.

USEFUL ADVICE

The original appearance and softness of velvet, wool or similar materials as well as glove and bags etc. can be restored by holding the iron a few cm above the fabric whilst pressing the steam button (8).
Carpets or rugs can be restored to new, eliminating marks left by furniture resting on them, by penetrating the flattened area with steam and then brushing lightly.
Never rest or use the iron on zips, hooks, rings etc. as this could scratch the plate.
The surface of the plate must be kept clean. To clean, wipe the cold surface with a damp cloth. Never treat the iron with decalcifiers.
After use, always wait for the iron to cool before putting it away.
Store the iron in a dry place.
After ironing, water left in the boiler need not be emptied.
Divide garments according to the required ironing temperature, starting with those which require the coolest temperature.
Silk can be dry ironed on the wrong side.
Wool, cotton and fine linen fabrics can be steam ironed on the wrong side or alternatively on the right side with a thin layer of material between the fabric to be ironed and the iron to avoid "shine". Starched fabrics require a higher humidity. Iron white and light fabrics on the right side and dark colours on the wrong side. Iron embroidery on the wrong side to make it stand out.
Linen can be steam ironed, steaming abundantly and ironing dark fabrics only on the wrong side to avoid "shine". Iron lapels, cuffs and turn-ups on the right side to make them stand out.
Each time you use the iron (and when you use it for the first time) or if you have not used steam for several minutes, push the steam button (8) repeatedly. This eliminates cold water from the steam circuit.

IMPORTANT

Read this instruction manual thoroughly before using the iron. This will ensure optimum results and maximum safety. Keep this booklet in a safe place for future reference.

STEAM IRONING

Before steam ironing, make sure the fabric is suitable for this type of ironing. The appliance works with normal tap water. If the water has a high calcium content, you are recommended to use distilled water.

Filling the boiler and plugging into the mains

Before filling the boiler, make sure the appliance is unplugged from the mains. Remove the boiler cap (1) and fill the tank with water. This appliance is fitted with a special safety cap. To unscrew, press downwards and at the same time rotate anticlockwise. Replace the cap securely by pressing down and rotating it clockwise until it stops. Put the iron down flat on ist rest and plug in.

Important: Never unscrew the cap (1) when the boiler is under pressure.

Turning on

Press both switches (2 and 3) and they will light up to indicate that the boiler and iron are now on.

NB: when using the appliance for the first time, a smell may be given off due to heating and consequent drying of the sealants used when assembling the boiler and iron.

Operation

Select the required temperature by rotating the thermostat knob (10) to one of the segments (figure 1 A/B) (divide garments according to the required ironing temperature, starting with those which require the coolest temperature) according to the type of fabric to be ironed (figure 2). Wait for the "steam ready" light (5) to come on and the "iron hot" light (11) to go out before you start to iron.

NB: both lights will come on and go off during ironing according to the temperature reached by the boiler and iron. To generate steam, simply press the steam button (8). You can vary the quantity of the steam by using the steam regulator knob (4).

Some models have a "continuous steam" delivery button (9). This function is obtained by pressing the "continuous steam" delivery button (9) and moving the slide backwards so as to lock the button. To interrupt steam output, simply move the slide back to the original position.

The steam iron is powerful to iron vertically- clothes, curtains, overcoats, etc.

IMPORTANT: When switching on the iron, keep knob in the maximum steam output position.

WARNING: the iron-steam generator connecting hose may become hot.

Topping up water in the boiler

When the water in the tank runs out, the "no water" indicator light (6) comes on. To top up, proceed as follows.

• Turn off the boiler using the "boiler on/off" button (2).
• Discharge any residual steam by pressing the "steam output" button (8).
• Turn the iron off by pressing the "iron on/off" button (3).
• Unplug the appliance from the mains. Wait several minutes for it to cool.
• Slowly unscrew the boiler cap (1) and top up as indicated in the paragraph "filling the boiler".

Pressure gauge (some models only)

The pressure gauge (7) enables boiler pressure to be kept under control.

It is divided into two coloured segments:

• one blue and one red.

During normal operation, the pointer oscillates within the blue segment, according to boiler pressure.

If the pointer remains in the red segment, this indicates faulty operation of the iron.

In this case, turn the appliance off and contact an authorised service centre.

DRY IRONING

Plug the appliance into the mains.

Press the luminous "iron on/off" button (3) to power the iron. The "iron hot" indicator light (11) will comes on. Position the "thermostat regulation knob" (10) in one of the areas shown in figure 1A/B, according to the type of fabric to be ironed (see figure below). For dry ironing, do not use the steam control (8) or (9).

N.B.: when the iron has reached the selected temperature, the light (11) goes out.

MAINTENANCE

Always keep the soleplate of the iron clean, simply by wiping it when cold with a damp cloth. Do not use decalcifying agents.

STORAGE

After use, always place the iron flat on its rest, making sure it is free from condensation, and allow the appliance to cool down before you put it away. Any water remaining in the boiler does not need emptying (unless the room temperature in the place where it is stored is likely to reach freezing point!). If, for any reason, you wish to empty the boiler, make sure the appliance is unplugged and tip the water from the boiler. Keep the appliance in a dry place.
