IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using your flatiron, 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. Never yank cord to disconnect from outlet; instead, grasp plug and pull
to disconnect.

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

5. Always disconnect iron from electrical outlet when filling with water or
emptying and when not in use.

6. 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 qualified serviceman 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 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 malfunction indicator goes on, the flatiron is not operating normally.
Disconnect from the power supply and have the flatiron serviced by qualified
service personnel.

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS

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.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

More specifically:

DO NOT let children or untrained persons use the appliance without

supervision.
NEVER immerse the iron, cable or plug in any liquid.
DO NOT leaves the hot iron touching fabrics or very inflammable

surfaces.
DO NOT leaves the appliance unnecessarily plugged in. Disconnect

the plug from the mains when the appliance is not being

used.
NEVER touch the appliance with wet or damp hands.
DO NOT uses the power cord or the appliance in order to pull the plug

out of the socket.
DO NOT leaves the appliance exposed to the weather (rain, sun,

etc.).
DO NOT leaves the iron without supervision when it is connected to

the power supply.
DO NOT fills the reservoir with water before removing the plug from

the socket.

PLEASE NOTE!
Do not use chemical additive, scented substances or decalcifies. Failure
to comply with the above-mentioned regulations leads to the loss of
guarantee.

• Do not use chemical additives, scented substances or decalcifies.
Failure to comply with the above-mentioned regulations leads to the
loss of guarantee.

ANTI-DRIP SYSTEM
With the anti-drip system, you can perfectly iron even the most delicate
fabrics.
Always iron these fabrics at low temperatures. The plate may cool down
to the point where no more steam comes out, but rather drops of boiling
water that can leave marks or stains. In these cases, the Anti-drip
system automatically activates to prevent vaporization, so that you can
iron the most delicate fabrics without risk of spoiling or staining them.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
When using the iron for the first 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 time. We also recommend passing
the iron over an ordinary cloth before using it for the first 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.

- Move the steam selector (3) to “0” [Fig. 1].

- Open the lid (2).

- Raise the tip of the iron to help the water enter the opening without
overflowing.

- Slowly pour the water into the reservoir using the special measure
(15) and taking care not to go over the maximum level (about 300ml)
indicated by “MAX” on the reservoir [Fig. 2].

- Close the lid (2).

Selecting the temperature.

- Put the iron in a vertical position.

- Put the plug in the socket.

- Adjust the thermostat knob (11) according to the international symbol

on the garment label [Fig. 3]. The plate temperature control light (9)
indicates that the iron is heating up. Wait until the plate temperature
control light goes off before ironing.
Warning: During ironing, the plate temperature control light (9) comes on
at intervals, indicating that the selected temperature is maintained. If
you lower the th ermostat temperature after ironi n g at a high
temperature, do not start ironing until the plate temperature control light
comes on again.

Selecting the steam.
The quantity of steam is regulated by the steam selector (3).

- Move the steam selector to a position between minimum and

maximum depending on the quantity of steam required and the

temperature selected [Fig. 1].
Warning: The iron gives off steam continuously only if you hold the iron
horizontally. You can stop the continuous steam by placing the iron in a
vertical position or by moving the steam selector to “0”. As indicated on
the thermostat knob (11) and in the initial table, you can only use steam
at the highest temperatures. If the selected temperature is too low, water
may drip onto the plate.

Selecting Shot-steam and steam when ironing vertically.
Press the shot-steam button (5) to generate a powerful burst of steam
that can penetrate the fabrics and smooth the most difficult and tough
creases. Wait for a few seconds before pressing again [Fig. 4].
By pressing the shot-steam button at intervals you can also iron
vertically (curtains, hung garments, etc.) [Fig. 5].
