HOW TO ASSEMBLE AND USE

1. Remove the steam station from its packing and make sure all packing has
been removed (including the protective bags). Put the station on a flat and
solid surface.

2. Your boiler is supplied with a safety cap on the blow-down valve (right side of
tank), as well as a plastic hose and fitting to secure the hose. Please remove
the safety cap and install the hose and fitting. This will allow you to follow the
proper cleaning procedure (ref. step #14). If there is a problem with the blow­down valve (leaking) you can use the safety cap to prevent water from leaking
until you have the valve replaced.

3. A) 7000IS – 7500IS: It is recommended to put the iron on the iron pad,
(supplied) as the pad will withstand the temperature of the iron. B) 7000CJ
– 7500CD: Screw the nozzle into the steam fitting and plug in the 4-pin recep­tacle for the electronic foot pedal. C) 7000CD – 7500CD – 7500IS: Connect
the steam gun or steam brush the same way using the quick disconnect for
the steam hose.

4. Insert the two-piece wand (2) into the flange on top of the boiler, tighten with
the side screw and attach the spring on the iron hose to the coil end of the
wand (7000IS, 7500IS, 7000CD, 7500CD models only).

5. Before beginning any operation, make sure that the exhaust valve (10) is
closed and the drain hose is installed (ref. step #2).

6. Unscrew the safety cap (1). Fill the boiler with a maximum of 1.85 gallons (7
litres) of water for the 7000IS series. Use the funnel supplied, making sure
you do not overfill the tank.

7. Insert the plug into the electrical outlet; switch on the boiler (3) and steam
button (2). When the two button lights come on, the steam device and boiler
are working.

8. For the 7000IS iron system, turn the iron plate’s temperature regulating knob
(6) to the desired temperature.

05

9. Wait approximately 30 minutes for the boiler to reach maximum pressure.
Once it reaches 60 psi, the unit is now ready to operate.

10. NOTE: When you call for steam for the first time (after having turned the
boiler on) you might notice a fast decrease in pressure. This is normal for the
first time.

11. The steam station is ready for use.

12. Push the steam button or the foot pedal for steam.

13. This steam product is equipped with a low water warning light (4). During
operation, if the light comes on, it indicates that the unit requires more water
to operate. If this occurs, please follow these steps.

a) Turn off the boiler switch (3).

b) Press the steam iron button or foot pedal to ensure there is no more

steam in the boiler.

c) Slowly open the pressure cap (1) and refill to the required level with warm

water.

d) Replace the cap, tighten and wait for it to build up pressure again.

e) NOTE: Failure to shut off the boiler when the warning light is on may

result in damaging the heating element, which will void the warranty.

IMPO RTANT

When you are finished using the boiler for the day, unscrew the fill cap one-turn on
the unit to release the steam/air from the tank. This will eliminate the vacuum that
may cause damage to the pressure gauge.

For a longer life and better machine performance we suggest that you flush out
the boiler tank once a week. Flushing the tank will help slow the sediment/mineral
buildup that may occur.

TO FLUSH THE BOILER TANK

(Be careful as the water will be very hot as it comes out of the tank):

1. Release the excess steam still inside the boiler at the end of use
(see item #13 above).

2. Turn off the steam switch power switch and unplug the boiler unit.

3. Carefully open the filler plug cap.

4. Make sure the clear drain tubing has been installed on to the blow-down
valve (drawing reference #10) situated on the lower right side of the
tank, and the tubing is draining into something that can hold hot water.

5. Open the blow down valve. Drain the remaining water from the boiler tank.

6. Close the valve.

TROUBLESHOOTING

PROBLEM

The steam from the iron
is too wet.

Water is coming out from
the boiler.

There is no steam coming out
of the iron, nozzle or gun.

POSSIBLE CAUSES

1. While filling the tank you
may have poured too much
water into it.

2. The iron soleplate is not
getting hot enough.

1. There might be a leak in the
heating element gasket.

1. The steam knob might
be closed

2. The iron switch might be off

3. The foot pedal is not
plugged in (7000CJ)

4. The boiler switch might
be off

5. If the low water light is on,
the water in the tank is low
or empty.

REMEDY

1. The problem will go on
until the excess water is
emptied. Keep the steam
button pressed until the
water in the tank is at the
correct level.

2. Please check that the
temperature knob is
on the right position, if
not, increase the iron
temperature.

1. Contact technical support
as in most cases, the
gasket will need to be
replaced.

1. Open the steam knob
anticlockwise.

2. After the iron switch
comes on, wait for 4 min­utes so that the iron plate
gets hot.

3. Plug the 4-pin receptacle
into the boiler.

4. After the boiler switch
comes on, wait for 10 min­utes so the boiler produces
steam.

5. Refill the boiler carefully
following the instructions.

The steam is dirty.

13

1. When using the iron with a
ironing shoe, if not cleaned
regularly, calcium will form
between the shoe and the
iron base.

1. Remove and rinse the
ironing shoe on a regular
(monthly) basis to avoid
scale build-up.
