• T o select the desired steam level, just press the respective switch once (Fig.1 (8) for medium steam or
Fig.1 (9) for maximum steam). In both cases a whistle will sound and the icon of the selected steam level
will light up in red.
• T o shut off steam output, press the steam switch activated (on red) again, a whistle will sound, the red light
will go off, and it will cease to issue automatically.
• ECO-INTELLIGENT: this Solac Compact Ironing System includes a device for disconnecting the
steam function after 3 seconds of not detecting any movement. This ensures lower power
consumption as well as greater autonomy of the tank (lower water consumption).
The steam function switches back on automatically when the slightest movement of the Com-
pact Ironing System is detected or when any of the steam outlet buttons is pressed.
AUTOMATIC SWITCH OFF: AUTO - PAUSE
• T he Compact Vapor Generator has an automatic switch-off system. It is switched off automatically
3 minutes after the last time it was used. This means that once the device is actuated, the CVG
ceases to heat and begins to cool down. At this time a whistle will sound; the ON warning light
Fig.1 (10) will remain on the blink, indicating that the appliance has been switched off. To switch
it back on, just move it slightly. A whistle will sound and the CVG will return to the temperature
and steam position that it had before being switched off.
• R emember that the period between being switched off and switched back on again will affect the time
that the CVG may need to regain the temperature selected previously.
IRONING RECOMMENDATIONS
• S ince the working of this model is similar to an ironing centre and due to its strong flow of steam at Max,
40 gr/min, we recommend you to iron with medium steam at temperature positions • and ••, and maximum
steam for temperature positions ••• and MAX. We also recommend you to iron first with steam (the level
appropriate to the garment you are going to iron) and go over the clothes dry to remove the moisture
and obtain results comparable with professional pressing.
• W henever the Compact Vapor Generator is in the vertical position, we recommend you to shut off steam
issue by pressing the steam switch activated once. Fig. 1 (8 or 9).
• T o iron without steam, simply do NOT press the steam switches Fig 1 (8-9) It is NOT necessary to drain
the water tank.
STEAM IRONING
• T his model enables you to iron with steam at temperature position 1 (•). It has two steam flow rates, med.
20gr/m and max. 40gr/m. For correct use of the flow refer to the section "Ironing Recommendations".
VERTICAL IRONING
• Keep the steam button pressed to obtain steam during vertical ironing.
• I t enables you to remove creases from delicate garments without having to lay them on the
ironing board: jackets, coats, curtains, suede garments, etc.
• P lace the garment on a hanger, away from other garments, persons, ...
• S et the temperature selector at position (••), (•••) or (MAX), place the iron in the vertical position and
press the button. At position (••) you will obtain a more humid white steam which will be more apparent,
whereas at setting (•••) and (MAX) the steam is drier and, although the same flow is maintained, it will be
harder for you to see.
SPRAY
• W ith water in the tank, you may spray water over the garment by pressing the button Fig. 1 (3).
FILLING WITH WATER
• I f the water level drops below Min while you are ironing, a whistle will sound indicating that the water
level has to be topped up.
