Dry ironing
To use your steam generator as a dry iron only,
follow steps 2, 3 and 4 of ‘Using the Steam
Generator’ on pages 6 and 7. You do not need to
put water in the tank or select a steam level.
Press
the steam trigger
(7) at least once every 10
minutes, or the product will automatically turn
off.
Auto shut-off
If
the iron
is not used for 10 minutes, the product
will automatically turn off for safety and to save
energy, and a beep will be heard.
To restart, press the On/Off power button (23)
(see step 2 of ‘Using the Steam Generator’ on
page 6) and wait for the temperature to rise
again.
Steam function
During steaming, small amounts of water may be
ejected from the soleplate
(6)
. This is normal and
can be avoided by using the steam for short
amou
nts of time and only when the iron is at the
correct temperature (the temperature indicator
light (4) on the iron goes out when ready).
Sudden jolts of the boiler unit can also cause
water droplets on the soleplate; therefore, do not
move the base unit during ironing.
We recommend for first time ironing that you
iron over an old towel.
Vertical steam
Vertical steam is useful for removing creases
from hanging clothes, curtains, upholstery, etc.
Hold the iron between 1cm and 2cm away from
the item and press the steam trigger
(7)
twice in
quick succession for a longer boost of steam. To
turn the steam boost off, press the steam trigger
again.
WARNING: Do not use the vertical steam
feature on clothes that are being worn.
Features
Steam boost button
The steam boost function is ideal for relaxing the
fibres of tougher fabrics (like jeans and linen) and
getting rid of those stubborn, hard to reach creases.
To produce a steam boost during ironing, simply
press the steam trigger (7) twice in quick
succession. To turn this off, press the steam trigger
again.
To conserve water in the tank, we recommend you
switch off the steam boost when the iron is not in
use.
