smooth the most difficult and tough creases. Wait for a
few seconds before pressing again [Fig. 4].
By pressing the shot-steam button at intervals you can
also iron vertically (curtains, hung garments, etc.) [Fig. 5].
Warning: the shot-steam function can only be used at
high temperatures. Stop the emission when the plate
temperature control light (H) comes on, than start
ironing again only after the light has gone off.

Dry ironing

To iron without steam, follow the instructions in section
"steam ironing", leaving the steam selector (D) on
position "0FF".
Spray Function
Make sure that there is water in the reservoir. Press the
spray button (E) slowly (for a dense spray) or quickly (for
a vaporized spray) [Fig. 6].
Warning: for delicate fabrics, we recommend moistening
the fabric beforehand using the spray function (E), or
putting a damp cloth between the iron and the fabric. To
avoid staining, do not use the spray on silk or synthetic
fabrics.
Cleaning
PLEASE NOTE: before cleaning the iron in any way,
make sure that the appliance plug is not connected to
the socket.
Any deposits, starch residue or size left on the plate can
be removed using a damp cloth or an unabrasive liquid
detergent.
Avoid scratching the plate with steel wool or metallic
objects.
The plastic parts can be cleaned with a damp cloth then
wiped over with a dry cloth.
Self-cleaning
The self-cleaning feature cleans inside the plate,
removing impurities. We recommend using it every 10-
15days. Directions:
-Fill the reservoir up to the maximum level indicated and
set the steam selector (D) to "0FF"
-Set the thermostat knob (I) to the maximum
temperature and wait for the light (H) to turn off.
-Pull the plug out of the socket and hold the iron
horizontally over the sink.
-Hold the cleanout button (J) setting until all the boiling
water, steam, impurities come out [Fig. 7].
-When the soleplate has cooled down, you can clean it
with a damp cloth.
How to put it away
- Disconnect the plug of the iron from the socket.
- Empty the reservoir by turning the iron upside down
and gently shaking it.
- Leave the iron to cool down completely.
- Roll up the power cord with the rewinder [Fig. 8].
- Always put the iron away in a vertical position.
Advice for good ironing
We recommend using the lowest temperatures with
fabrics that have unusual finishes (sequins, embroidery,
flush, etc.).
If the fabric is mixed (e.g. 40% cotton 60% synthetics),
set the thermostat to the temperature of the fibre
requiring the lower temperature.
If you don't know the composition of the fabric,
determine the suitable temperature by testing on
a hidden corner of the garment. Start with a low
temperature and increase it gradually until it reaches the
ideal temperature.
Never iron areas with traces of perspiration or other
marks: the heat of the plate fixes the stains on the fabric,
making them irremovable.
The size is more effective if you use a dry iron at a
moderate temperature: excess heat scorches it with the
risk of forming a yellow mark.
To avoid marking silk, woolen or synthetic garments
shiny, iron them inside out.
To avoid marking velvet garments shiny, iron in one
direction (following the fibre) and do not press down on
the iron.
The heavier the washing machine is loaded, the more
garments come out creased. This also happens when the
spin drying revolutions are very high.
Many fabrics are easier to iron if they are not completely
dry.
For example, silk should always be ironed damp.
