Filling The Appliance With Water - Fakir BT 200 Instrucciones De Uso

Filling the appliance with water

Always pull the power cord out of the main socket. To fill the
tank use clean water only.
Never put any substance in the water, such as perfumes or any
other chemical or cleaning products. Never use the laundry water.
It always contains residues that could stain the tank, the iron and
the garments. Never use water intended for car batteries, which
could contain acids.
The boiler, where the steam is produced, is made from strong and long-lasting stainless
steel. You can use tap water if you live in a soft water area. If you live in a hard water area
we recommend using only boiled or demineralised water. If you only use demineralised
water There will be no formation of sediments, thus prolonging the life of the appliance.
The tank can be descaled at a Service Centre, though this is not covered by the guaran-
tee. Your local water supplier can give you information concerning the scale content of
your water.
If you have only a few garments to iron use less water in the boiler. In this way you will
save time and energy.
Unscrew the safety cap of the tank. Ensure
that the tank is cool. Putting water into a hot
tank could produce instant steam, which may
cause serious burns.
To fill the tank use the anti-drip filling bottle,
a funnel or a suitable jug.
Never put the appliance under the tap.
Wipe off any water that has spilled over. Do
not try to fill more water by shaking the tank;
this will reduce the volume of the tank and the-
refore the first steam emission.
