Do not unscrew the boiler cap unless you are sure that the appliance has been unplugged from
the outlet (fig. 2).
When water in boiler is lack,” Lack water” pilot lamp (16) lights up, unscrew the safety cap (7).
Pour 1.0 litres (12) of normal tap water into the tank (figure 2) by means of a funnel. Screw the
safety cap back on tightly (7).
How to start the appliance
-Check that the voltage indicated on the data plate corresponds with that of the local network
before connecting the appliance to the supply mains.
-The appliance uses ordinary tap water. If the water is very hard we suggest using distilled or
demineralized water.
-Always remove the plug from the power socket before filling the boiler
Unscrew the cap (7) and pour in about 1.0 litres of water.
-After closing the cap. Connect the appliance to the power supply.
-Press the boiler’s switch (4) and wait for the water to start boiling (about 8 minutes). Next, press
the switch (5) to turn on the iron and then select the desired temperature by means of the
thermostat knob (9).
-When the light (11) goes off, the set temperature has been reached and the iron is ready for use.
It takes about 8 minutes for the boiler to reach the optimum ironing pressure.
-When the appliance is ready for use the steam pilot lamp (6) lights up.
-When using the iron for the first time, iron a plain cloth first.
-To obtain steam, press the steam button (10). Release the steam button when steam is no
longer required.
-This appliance is also able to generate steam in a vertical position and can therefore be used
to refresh fabrics easily with a jet of steam.
-If the jet of steam decreases while you are ironing, the boiler tank is running out of water.
Attention: never allow the steam to flow out of the iron whilst it is resting on the stand
provided (8).
Attention: the boiler is always under pressure!
How to fill the boiler while the appliance is being used
To continue ironing, top up as follows:
-Switch off the boiler (4). Select the desired temperature “MIN” by turning the thermostat knobs
(9).
-Release the pressure left in the boiler, keeping the steam button (10)
until no more steam comes out of the plate. Then switch off the
iron
on the iron
(5).
pressed down
-Unplug the power cord from the wall socket.
-Wait for the iron and the boiler to cool down.
-Unscrew the cap and wait a few minutes.
-Slowly pour 1.0 litres of water into the opening always using the funnel provided.
-Close the boiler and fully tighten the cap.
-Press the boiler switch (4).
-Wait for steam pilot lamp (6) to light up before continuing ironing.
5
CAUTION! Never attempt to open the cap while the boiler is under pressure.
Never unscrew the boiler cap when the appliance is connected to the outlet.
-The iron may smoke slightly when switched on for the first time – this is normal and will soon
cease.
-If the iron remains unused for a long period of time (a few weeks), we suggest that the steam
button (10) be pressed for about 30 seconds with the iron in horizontal position, as to clean the
internal steam ducts, before you start your ironing session.
-It is not necessary to completely fill the boiler tank for short ironing sessions. -One measure (or
less) of water is sufficient as to reduce the waiting time and save electric energy.
Dry ironing
-To iron without steam, first connect the appliance to the mains supply, press the switch(5), then
select the desired temperature by turning the thermostat knob(9).
-Wait until the pilot lamp (11) goes off, indicating that the desired temperature has been
reached.
- For dry ironing it is not necessary to press the steam button (10).
Temperature selection
-First of all, check if there is a label with ironing instructions attached to the article to be ironed.
Compare the symbol on the label with the table below.
-If ironing instructions are missing, but you are familiar with the fabric, the table below may help
you.
- The table refers to fabrics that have been sized. If the fabrics have not been sized, they may be
ironed at a lower temperature.
Suggestions
-Sort the items to be ironed according to the varying fabrics: wool with wool, cotton with cotton,
etc. Start by ironing the fabrics that require lower temperatures and progressively work up to the
fabrics that require higher temperatures, as the iron heats up quicker than it cools down.
-If the fabric consists of various kinds of fibres, always select the temperature according to the
fibre that requires the least heat. For instance, if the fabric consists of 70% synthetic fibres and
30% cotton, set the temperature to (•) (see table) without steam, as for synthetic fabrics.
-Pure wool articles (100%) can be ironed with the iron set to one of the steam positions. We
suggest that pure wool, silk and synthetic articles be ironed inside out as to prevent the fabric
from becoming shiny.
-Other types of fabrics, especially velvet, should always be ironed in the same direction (with a
cloth) with a light pressure on the iron as to prevent the shiny effect. Continually move the iron
over the article being ironed.

that the power cord and the electric cables do not touch the hot parts.
HOW TO GET A PROFESSIONAL IRONING FINISH
A normal iron generates only a small quantity of steam. In this case it is necessary to produce
steam constantly in order to eliminate crease in the fabric being ironed.
A professional ironing system works rather differently. The fabric is first made slightly damp by
the steam and then, in a second phase, dry-ironed in the normal way. This means that every
tiny crease is removed and your garments are ironed to perfection.
7
In the first phase (steam-damping of the fabric), hold the iron about 20 cm. above
The fabric and press the steam button (10). Pass the iron over the garment in a circular
movement so that the powerful jet of steam dampens the fabric. Lightly creased garments
require only a few moments of steaming. While very heavy fabrics or garments with particularly
difficult creases must be more damp, so steam must be applied for a few seconds more.
During the second phase (dry ironing), check that the thermostat knob is in the correct position
for the type of fabrics; release the steam button (10) and dry-iron the garment. The special
ironing plate will prevent the fabrics from becoming shiny. Using this ironing technique, and
following the suggestions in the chart above, you will find it easy to give your garments a really
professional ironing finish.
CLEANING
-Before cleaning the iron, disconnect it from the power supply and allow it to completely cool
down on the iron stand (8).
-Clean the boiler tank every three months by carrying out the following the procedure:
- unplug the iron from the wall socket;
- fill the boiler tank with normal tap water, rinse and drain;
