• During ironing the iron indicator light
switches on and off according to
heating requirements but this has no
effect on use.
• To obtain steam, press on the steam
control button beneath the iron handle
and keep it pressed -
fig. 12. The steam
will stop when you release the button.
• Always spray starch on the reverse side
of the fabric to be ironed.
7. Using the Precision Shot
(according to model)
• Your appliance comes with a Precision
Shot function : It allows you to make a
concentrated steam injection when
ironing hard creases, details and
difficult access areas.
• To use this function, press fully on the
Precision Shot button located on top of
your iron as many times as necessary –
fig. 13.
8 • Vertical steam ironing
• Set the iron temperature control and
the steam output control dial (located
on the control panel) to the maximum
position.
• Hang the garment on a coat hanger and
hold the fabric slightly taut with one
hand. Press repeatedly on the steam
control button -
fig. 12 (beneath the iron
handle) moving the iron from top to
bottom -
fig. 14.
Examples of how to use the vertical
steaming function:
• Removing creases from delicate fabrics
hung on a coat hanger that you do not
want to bring into contact with the hot
iron.
• Refreshing a shirt or a suit just before
putting it on.
9 • Dry ironing
• Do not press on the steam control
button.
Recommendations: To prime the
steam circuit, either before using the
iron for the first time, or if you have
not used the steam function for a few
minutes, press the steam control
button several times in a row - fig. 12,
holding the iron away from your
clothes.
This will enable any cold water to be
removed from the steam circuit.
Iron temperature control setting:
Start with fabrics to be ironed at a low
temperature and finish with those
which need higher temperatures.
Mixed fibre fabrics: set the ironing
temperature to the setting for the
most delicate fabric.
If you set your thermostat to “min”,
the iron will not become hot.
Steam output control dial setting:
Thick fabric: increase the steam
output. At a low temperature: set the
steam output control dial to the low
position. For delicate fabrics(•), press
the steam control button (under the
handle of the iron) intermittently to
avoid possible water droplets
appearing with the steam.
Do not place the iron on a metal
support. When taking a break from
ironing, always place the iron on the
iron rest plate of the unit. It is
equipped with non-slip pads and has
been designed to withstand high
temperatures.
Attention! Use the Precision Shot
function carefully, as the steam comes
out with exceptional force and could
cause burns.
As steam is very hot: never attempt
to remove creases from a garment
while it is being worn, always hang
garments on a coat hanger. For
fabrics other than linen or cotton,
hold the iron a few centimetres from
the garment to avoid burning the
fabric.
