III. INSTRUcTIONS FOR USE
Remove all the packing material and take out the iron with the accessories. Remove any
labels, protective foils or covers from the ironing plate before the first use. At first switch
the iron ON to maximum temperature and let the iron at least 10 minutes running without
water. The iron may produce slight smoke, which is cased by burning of used lubricants
and seals in steam chamber. This is normal situation and does not form the reason for
warranty claim. During first filling of the tank with operating water it is recommended to
release the steam from whole tank outside the ironed fabric.
Ironing temperatures
– Sort laundry and iron according to the instructions for treatment (e.g. manufacturer’s
recommendation - the label on clothes). If the instruction is missing and you know the
material of the clothes, follow the table on picture 3. The table applies to basic materials
only, not to possible decorations, material treatment, etc.
– Start to iron from the lowest temperatures to higher temperatures. If clothes consist of
e.g. two and more materials or if they contain stringing, purls, embossing, stretch
material, etc., always iron according to the material requiring the lower temperature only.
If you do not know the material, find the suitable place that is not visible when wearing
and try suitable temperature for ironing at the place.
– When ironing woollen fabrics, we recommend ironing on the back side of the fabric and
you can iron virgin wool through additional cloth. Velvet and similar fabrics can be ironed
in one direction ( you will prevent creation of glossy areas).
– Steam ironing is not suitable for fabrics from synthetic and silk fibers (e.g. acrylon,
nylon, polyamide or polyester).
– We recommend using soft textile permeable base materials for steam ironing.
– Make sure that the ironed fabric is tensed up properly so that steam does not leak to the
sides.
– For the ironing plate to remain smooth, protect it from direct contact with sharp metal
objects (e.g. zip fasteners, buttons, snap buttons, decorative objects).
