IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE

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

1. Use iron only for its intended use. For HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.

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
an outlet. Never yank the cord to disconnect from the outlet. Instead, grasp
the plug and pull to disconnect.

4. Do not allow the cord to touch hot surfaces. Let the iron cool completely
before putting away. Loop cord loosely around the iron when storing.

5. It is always recommended to disconnect the iron from the electrical outlet
when filling with water or emptying. It should also be disconnected when not
in use.

6. Do not operate the iron with a damaged cord or if the iron has been dropped
or damaged. To avoid the risk of an electric shock, do not disassemble the
iron. Take it to a qualified service depot for examination and repair. Incorrect
reassembly can cause a risk of electric shock when the iron is used.

7. Close supervision is necessary for any appliance being used by or near
children. Do not leave the iron unattended while connected or on an
ironing board.

8. 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.

9. If the iron is not operating normally, disconnect it from the power supply and
have it serviced by qualified service personnel.

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS

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

3. If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, a 15-amp 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.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS IN A SAFE
PLACE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

ATTENTION

• Before using your Sensor Velocity V200, remove all the paper or plastic bags,

plastic sheets, cards and possible stickers that may be on the outside or
inside of the appliance that acted as handling protection or sales promotion

material. Remove the soleplate protector before using your V200.

• Read these instructions before rst using your appliance.

• This manual is an integral part of the product. Please safeguard it for

future reference.

• Do not plug it in without checking that the voltage of the appliance is the same

as your home mains voltage.

• Take care that the cord does not touch the hot parts of the appliance.

• Check that the socket outlet has a suitable ground connection.

• If you steam iron, please refer to section “STEAM IRONING” on page 12.

• To ll your V200 or ll it while ironing, follow the instructions in the “FILLING
WITH WATER” section on page 13, unplugging it and using the beaker

provided.

• Do not use your V200 steam function without water in the tank as this may

cause irreparable damage to the system.

• The appliance may emit a little smoke and a plastic smell during the rst few

minutes of use. This is normal and will disappear quickly.

• Do not spray “vertical” steam on a garment hanging in the wardrobe or on a
person. Vertical ironing must be done with the garment on a hanger and away

from other garments, elements or persons.

• The V200 should be used on a stable ironing surface.

• When you nish ironing, always empty the water from the tank. If you want to

drain it while ironing, always unplug the appliance from the mains first.

• Keep the V200 in an upright position during storage, leaning on its heel part,

set on a stable surface.

• To disconnect the V200, never pull on the power cord, take out the plug.

• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer,

one service agent authorized or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid
a hazard.

• The V200 should not be used if it has been dropped or has a crack or leak in
the water tank. If you observe any of these problems, take the V200 to a one

service authorized.

• Please never leave the V200 unattended while it is connected to the supply.

• Children must be supervised to ensure they do not play with the appliance.

05

• This appliance is not for use by persons (including children) whose physical,

sensorial or mental capacities are impaired, or who lack sufficient experience
or knowledge, unless they have been supervised or instructed in the use of the
appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

IMPORTANT: When you want to dispose of the appliance, NEVER throw

it in the garbage. Instead, go to your closest waste collection centre for
subsequent treatment. In this way, you will be contributing to looking after
the environment. Before disposing of your used appliance, you should
make it visibly unserviceable and have it disposed of according to current
national legislation. Ask your Distributor, Town Council or Local Authority
for detailed information.

BEFORE STARTING TO IRON

• Make sure you have removed the soleplate protector before starting to iron.

• With your V200 unplugged, open the ll cap lifting it upwards (g 1).

• Due to the high level of water hardness in most areas, Reliable recommends

that you always use distilled or demineralised water for ironing. You will thus

guarantee that your V200 stays in perfect condition for as long as possible. If

you cannot find distilled water for any reason, be sure to use water that is low

in minerals (soft).

06

• Do not put any type of scale remover solvents or products in the water tank.

Do not use perfumed or ironing water either. These products can damage the

interior of the steam generation system.

• Fill the tank without exceeding the maximum level using the beaker provide (8
and keeping the V200 upright. After the tank is full, close the cap (1).

• Keep the water-ll hole cap (1) closed during operation.

• Check the garment to be ironed to see if it has a label that indicates the

ironing temperature.

• We recommend that you classify garments by their required ironing

temperature and that you begin ironing with the garments that require the

lowest temperature (•MIN).

• Ironing delicate garments with a temperature higher than necessary is

harmful for the fabric and causes burnt residue to get stuck to the soleplate.

• If you have any doubts about the temperature to use for a given garment,

perform a test on a part which won’t be seen, beginning with the lowest
temperature settings.

OPERATION

This appliance has been designed exclusively for ironing clothes. Do not use it for
other purposes.

If the appliance is hot, handle it carefully and do not touch the soleplate.

We recommend that the V200 iron be rested horizontally on an approved, heat
resistant iron pad (optional iRest). Storing an iron vertically is less secure and

increases the risk of the iron falling, but with proper care is acceptable.

1. Extend the cable fully and plug in the iron.

2. Turn the temperature selector from the OFF position to the desired position

(see “TEMPERATURE SELECTION”).

3. If you wish, select ironing with steam (see “STEAM SELECTION”).

4. Take the V200 by the handle and move the soleplate over the garment to

be pressed.

5. To switch off the V200, turn the temperature selector (3) to the OFF
position again.

TEMPERATURE SELECTION

The V200 has 4 temperature positions for you to choose between, by turning the
selector (3).

Turn the temperature selector (3) as many times as required until the desired
temperature level is reached (g. 2). Position (•MIN) (g. 2-A) Position (••) (g.
2-B) Position (•••) (g. 2-C) Position (MAX) (g. 2-D)

After turning the temperature selector (3) from the OFF position to any other

temperature position, the three luminous indicators will light up for a few seconds
and a beep will sound.

The temperature indicator will icker until the temperature selected has been

reached. Once the working temperature has been reached, the indicator will light

up continuously (g. 2).

STEAM SELECTION

The V200 has two steam positions; medium steam and maximum steam. To

select the desired steam level:

1. Press the button (5) to select medium steam (g. 3) or the button (6) for
maximum steam (g. 4).

If the steam function is selected without having reached the temperature

selected, the luminous indicator on the steam button selected (medium
or maximum ) will icker until the working temperature is reached (g. 5).

Once the temperature is reached, the luminous indicator of the temperature

selected •MIN, ••, ••• or MAX and the LIGHT indicator of the steam button
selected (medium or maximum ) will no longer icker simultaneously.

2. To stop the emission of steam, press the steam button again. A beep will
sound, the corresponding luminous indicator will switch off (medium or
maximum ) and steam will no longer be emitted automatically (g. 6).

CONTACT SENSOR

The V200 has a contact sensor which stops the emission of steam immediately

after detecting lack of contact on the handle. This ensures lower power consump­tion as well as lower water consumption. The steam function switches back on
automatically when hand contact with the handle is made.

AUTO SWITCH OFF: AUTO-PAUSE

The V200 has an automatic switch off system.

It is switched off automatically 8 minutes after the last time it was used. This

means that once the device is activated, the V200 no longer heats up and begins

to cool down.
