OPERATING THE IRONING SYSTEM
- Power on the unit by placing the knob (5) to position "1". The button will light up to indicate that the boiler
is heating up.
- CAUTION: when the tank control light (3) lights up, it means that the boiler is ready to produce steam.
During normal operation, the light lights on intermittently.
- The pressure gauge (2) indicates pressure inside the boiler. The operating pressure is about 3 Bar.
- Turn on the iron by switching the knob (6) to position "1". The button will light up to indicate that the iron
is running.
- Adjust the temperature using the control knob (12) according to the fabric to be ironed (see table at page 7).
The ironing temperature control light (14), placed on the iron, will light to show when the iron is heating
up.
- CAUTION: when this light goes off, it means that the iron has reached the desired temperature. During
normal operation, the light lights on intermittently.
Start ironing when the iron control light is off, and boiler control light (3) is turned on.
- Adjust the quantity of steam using the knob (4).
- For using the steam, either horizontally or vertically, press the button (13). Use the button (11) to supply
continuous steam.
CAUTION: when using the steam, wait for the complete heating of both the iron and the
boiler. In the beginning, few drops will come out together with the steam. This is normal and
it is due to the heating of the cable connecting the boiler and iron.
CAUTION: do not completely fill the tank of the boiler (max 1 liter), since this operation
prevents the formation of the steam, causing the loss of water from the iron.
CAUTION: if the pressure gauge (2) exceeds 3,5 Bar reaching the "red zone", immediately
turn off the system.
FILLING THE TANK
Use of distilled water is recommended to avoid excessive fouling (not covered by warranty).
The capacity of the tank is 1 liter.
It is compulsory filling up the tank when it comes out of water or when the indicator light (9) turns off during
use. Follow the steps below for filling the tank:
1)
Stop the heating boiler by switching the control knob (5) to position "0".
2)
Let the steam comes out from the boiler by pressing the button (13).
To avoid any risk of injury, always eject the steam before opening the cap of the boiler.
3)
Remove the plug from the main power outlet and wait until the pressure gauge goes down.
4)
Slowly unscrew the boiler cap (15) to release remaining steam and lower the pressure. The air coming
out is very hot, be careful and unscrew the cap of the boiler very slowly.
5)
Fill in the tank using the cup and the funnel without exceeding the maximum capacity.
CAUTION: do not completely fill the tank of the boiler (max 1 liter), since this operation
prevents the formation of steam causing the loss of water from the iron.
