(•••).
WATER SPRAYER
• You can dampen the fabric by pressing the
spray button (4) several times (pic. 6).
• Make sure that there is enough water in the
water tank (11).
IRONING
• Place the iron on the base (14).
• Insert the power plug into the socket.
• Set the temperature regulator (12) to the
required ironing temperature: “•”, “••”,
“•••” or “max” (•••) (pic.3), depending
on the type of fabric, the (13) indicator will
light up.
• When the sole temperature (12) reaches
the desired temperature value, the (13) in-
dicator will go out, you can start ironing.
• After you finish ironing set the (12) regula-
tor to the “minimum” position.
• Pull the plug out of the socket and let the
iron cool down completely.
STEAM IRONING
For steam ironing set the temperature regu-
lator to steam using zone or “max” (•••).
The iron has an anti-drop valve, which stops
water supply, when the sole temperature is
too low it prevents the appearance of drops
out of the sole openings (8). While heating
or cooling down of the sole (8), you will hear
clicks of opening/closing of the anti-drop
valve; it means that the valve works normally.
• Place the iron on the base (14).
• Insert the power plug into the socket.
• Make sure that there is enough water in the
water tank (11).
• Set the temperature regulator (12) to the
required ironing temperature: to steam us-
ing zone or “max” (•••), the (13) indicator
will light up (Pic.3).
• When the sole temperature (12) reaches
the desired temperature value, the (13) in-
dicator will go out, you can start ironing.
• Turn the constant steam supply regulator
(3) to set the intensity of steaming, steam
will start outgoing from the openings of the
sole (8).
• After you finish ironing set the (12) regula-
tor to the “minimum” position and the con-
stant steam supply regulator (3) to the “0”
(steam supply is off) position.
• Pull the plug out of the socket and let the
iron cool down completely.
ATTENTION!
If during the operation steam is not constant-
ly supplied, check whether the temperature
regulator (12) is set properly and whether
there is water in the water tank.
ADDITIONAL STEAM RELEASE
Additional steam release function is use-
ful when ironing folds and can only be used
at high ironing temperatures (when the iron
temperature regulator (12) is set to “max”
(•••).
When the additional steam release button (5)
is pressed, steam will be vigorously released
from the openings in the iron sole (pic.4).
Note:
- In order to avoid leakage of water from
steam openings, press the additional
steam supply button (5) with a 4-5 sec.
interval.
VERTICAL STEAMING
For vertical steaming can be used only when
the high temperature mode is used (set the
temperature regulator (12) to the “max” (•••)
position.
Hold the iron vertically at the distance 15-
30 cm from the clothes press the additional
steam release button (5) with a 4-5 seconds
interval, steam will be released from the
openings in the iron sole (8) (pic. 5).
Important information
• Vertical steaming is not recommended for
synthetic fabrics.
• To avoid melting the fabric, do not touch
the iron sole to the item while steaming.
• Never steam iron clothes on a person as
