BEFORE STARTING TO IRON
• W ith your Compact Ironing Centre disconnected from the mains, open the fill cap shown in Figure 2 (1)
by turning it backwards (see arrow).
• D ue to the high level of water hardness in most areas, Solac recommends that you always use distilled
or demineralised water for ironing. You will thus guarantee that your Compact Ironing Centre stays in
perfect condition for as long as possible. If you cannot find distilled water for any reason, be sure to use
water that is low in minerals (soft).
• D o not put any type of scale remover solvents or products in the water tank. Also do not use perfumed or
ironing water. These products can damage the interior of the steam generation system.
• U se the attached cup shown in Figure 1 (12) to fill the tank, without exceeding the maximum level. Keep
the CPC in the vertical position, supported on the non-slip feet of the rear cover (see Figure 2). After the
tank is full, close the cap.
• D ue to the fact that this product generates a considerable amount of steam, we recommend that you fill
the tank up to the maximum indicated level, otherwise you would have to fill up the water tank more
frequently.
• C heck the garment to be ironed to see if it has a label that indicates the ironing temperature. We recom-
mend that you classify garments by their required ironing temperature and that you begin ironing with
the garments that require the lowest temperature ( • ).
WOOL, SYNTHETIC FIBRES, minimum temperature (•)
SILK, medium temperature (••)
COTTON, max. temperature (•••)
LINEN, maximum temperature (MAX)
NB: Ironing delicate garments with a temperature higher than necessary is harmful for the fabric
and causes burnt residue to get stuck to the soleplate.
OPERATION
• P lug the Compact Vapor Generator into the mains. A whistle will sound, the orange pilot light will come
on, and the green temperature light will blink until the proper temperature level is reached.
Temperature selection
• W ith your Compact Vapor Generator you will easily know when it reaches the selected temperature and
is ready for ironing as the green pilot light will illuminate and remain on the blink until the selected tem-
perature has been reached.
• T he CVG has 4 temperature positions (•, ••, •••, MAX) which may be chosen at your discretion by turning
the temperature selection wheel Fig 1 (7).
• I f the wheel is at position 0, your CVG will switch off.
Steam selection:
• T he Compact Ironing Centre has two steam positions; medium steam (20 gr/min) and maximum steam
(40 gr/min).
