• During ironing this pilot light (1) will come on from time to time. When this happens, the
soleplate is being heated up to the required temperature again. You can continue
ironing.
• The table is valid for the fibre materials only. If some kind of finish has been applied (gloss,
wrinkle, relief etc.), the textile can best be ironed at a lower temperature.
First sort out the fabrics according to ironing temperature: wool with wool, cotton with
cotton, etc.
• The iron heats up quicker than it cools down. Therefore, start ironing the articles requiring
the lowest temperature such as those made of synthetic fibres. Then progressively increase
the temperature.
• If the article is made of a mixture of different fibres, you must always select the ironing
temperature corresponding to that of the fibre requiring the lowest temperature.
(E.g. an article consisting of "60% polyester and 40% cotton" should be ironed at the
temperature indicated for polyester and without steam.)
If you do not know the kind of fabric(s) the article has been made of, find a spot which will
be invisible when wearing or using the article to try out the ironing temperature. (Always
start at a low temperature and increase to one which gives the required results.)
• Pure woollen fabrics (100% wool) may be pressed with the iron set to a steam position. It is
recommended to apply a burst of steam and use a dry pressing cloth between the
woollen article and the iron.
• When ironing with steam (see paragraph "Steam ironing"), the fabric might shine. You can
prevent it by ironing the reverse side of the article or interposing a slightly humid cloth
between the article and the soleplate.
• Velvet and other fabrics that rapidly acquire shiny spots should be ironed in one direction
only (the one of the nap), applying only light pressure. Always keep the iron moving.
• Iron the reverse side of synthetic materials and silk; it is not advisable to use steam as this
may cause stains.
FILLING THE WATER TANK (FOR STEAM IRONING)
1. Put the base on a stable surface.
2. Press the release button (7) of the water tank and slide it forward. Open the water tank by
removing the cap (6) and fill the water tank with clear water up to its "Max" level. You can
use tap water, but we advise you to use demineralised water.
3. Close the cap (6) of the water tank and put the water tank back in the base correctly.
Slide it backward until it is locked.
4. Never use vinegar, detergents or other chemical products.
Caution: always make sure that the anti-scale cartridge situated inside the water tank is well
put into place. Never use the appliance without anti-scale cartridge.
FILLING THE WATER TANK DURING USE
As the water tank of this appliance is not under pressure, you can refill it during use. To do so,
just proceed as described above in the "Filling the water tank" section.

higher ironing temperatures, so set the dial to
• Plug in the appliance and press the power switch (12) to turn on the appliance. The power
light (15) of the base will come on. The yellow pilot light (14) also switches on indicating
that the water tank is heating.
