IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE

When using your at iron, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including
the following:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING

1. Use iron only for its intended use.

2. To protect against a risk of electric shock, do not immerse the iron in water or other

liquids.

3. The iron should always be turned to “OFF” before plugging or unplugging from outlet.

4. Never yank cord to disconnect from outlet; instead, grasp plug and pull to disconnect.

5. Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces.

6. Let iron cool completely before putting awayLoop cord loosely around iron when stor-

ing.

7. Always disconnect iron from electrical outlet when lling with water or emptying and
when not in use.

8. Do not operate iron with a damaged cord or if the iron has been dropped or damaged.
To avoid the risk of electric shock do not disassemble the iron. Take it to a quali ­ed serviceman for examination and repair. Incorrect reassembly can cause a risk of
electric shock when the iron is used.

9. Close supervision is necessary for any appliance being used by or near children. Do
not leave iron unattended while connected or on an ironing board. Especially in the
presence of minors.

10. Burns can occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water, or steam. Use caution
when you turn a steam iron upside down – there may be hot water in the reservoir.

11. The iron must be used and rested on a stable surface.

12. When placing the iron on its stand, ensure that the surface on which the stand is

placed is stable.

FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

1. To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another high wattage appliance on the

same circuit.

2. If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, a 10-ampere cord should be used.
Cords rated for less amperage may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange the cord
so that it cannot be pulled or tripped over.
DO NOT let children or untrained persons use the appliance without supervision.

NEVER immerse the iron, cable or plug in any liquid.

DO NOT leave the hot iron touching fabrics or very inammable surfaces.
DO NOT leave the appliance unnecessarily plugged in. Disconnect the plug from the
socket when the appliance is not being used.
NEVER touch the appliance with wet or damp hands.
DO NOT use the power cord or the appliance in order to pull the plug out of the socket.
DO NOT leave the appliance exposed to the weather (rain, sun, etc. ).
DO NOT leave the iron without supervision when it is connected to the power supply.
DO NOT ll the reservoir with water before removing the plug from the socket.

PLEASE NOTE!

Do not use chemical additive, scented substances or decalciers. Failure to comply with
the above-mentioned regulations leads to the loss of guarantee.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

When using the ron for the rst time, you may notice a slight emission of smoke and hear
some sounds made by the expanding plastics. This is quite normal and it stops after a
short me. We also recommend passing the iron over an ordinary cIoth before using it for
the rst time.

PREPARATIONS

Soft the laundry to be ironed according to the international symbols on the garment label,
or if this is missing, according to the type of fabric.
Start ironing the garments requiring a low temperature.
This reduces the waiting times (the iron takes less time to heat up than to cool down)
and eliminates the risk of scorching the fabric.

STEAM IRONING

Filling the reservoir
a) Check that the plug is disconnected from the socket.
b) Move the steam selector dial(3) to “0FF”.
c) Open the ller spout (2).
d) Raise the tip of the iron to help the water enter the opening without overowing.

- Slowly pour the water into the reservoir using the water measuring cup (14) and
taking care not to go over the maximum level (about 300ml) indicated by “MAX”
on the reservoir (12).

- Close the ller spout (2).
