IMPORTANT: FOR EXTRA PROTECTION
AGAINST LIMESCALE, USE A MIXTURE OF
50% TAP WATER MIXED WITH 50%
DEIONISED, DISTILLED OR DEMINERALISED
WATER (AVAILABLE AT MOST LARGE
SUPERMARKETS).
NEVER USE MORE THAN 50% DEIONISED,
DISTILLED OR DEMINERALISED WATER AND
NEVER USE SCENTED WATER OR IRONING
WATER.
Never use battery topping up fluid or water
containing any substances like starch, sugar,
fragrant additives or defrosted water from a
refrigerator.
Re-filling during use
If the water level is too low, the low water level
indicator light (30) will illuminate, a beep will be
heard, and the unit will not produce steam. If this
happens, disconnect the water tank and refill
with water.
Dry ironing
To use your steam generator as a dry iron only,
follow steps 2, 3 and 4 of ‘Using the Steam
Generator for steam ironing’ on page 7. You do
not need to put water in the tank or select a
steam level. Press either the steam boost button
(1) or the steam trigger (4) at least once every 10
minutes, or the product will automatically turn off.
Auto shut-off
If
either the steam boost button
(1)
or the steam
trigger
(4) goes unused for 10 minutes, the
product will automatically turn off for safety and
to save energy, and a beep will be heard.
T
o restart, press the On/Off button (31) (see step
2 of ‘Using the Steam Generator for steam
ironing’ on page 7) and wait for the temperature
to rise again.
Steam function
During steaming, small amounts of water may be
ejected from the soleplate. 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 (7)
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.
NOTE: The product may occasionally produce a
pumping sound during steam ironing. This is
normal and is caused by water being pumped
through the steam generator.
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 either the steam boost button
(1)
(certain models only) or the steam trigger
(4)
.
WARNING: Do not use the vertical steam
feature on clothes that are being worn.
