INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Warning!
Remove any labels and protections from the soleplate before using the appliance
for the first time.
The iron disconnection from the tank must occur always and only with the power
plug unplugged from the outlet.
SINGER can be used in two ways: as ironing system or as a traditional iron.
The ironing system mode is recommended for large quantities of cloths and long ironing
times, while for lesser quantities or less ironing time it is recommended to use the
traditional ironing mode.
To use it as ironing system make sure that the iron/boiler connecting cable (Q) and the
power cord (A) are inserted in the connection on the cord storage compartment (Y) at the
base of the appliance (Fig. 3). See "Using the iron an ironing system".
For use in traditional iron mode, unplug the power cord (A) and the iron/boiler connecting
cable (Q) from the connections on the cord storage compartment (Y) by pressing the
release hook (R). Connect the cables to each other (Fig. 6) until you hear a slight click.
See "Using as traditional iron".
To return using the ironing system mode, unplug the power cord (A) and the iron/boiler
connecting cable (Q), by pressing the release hook (R). Insert the two cables in the
connections on the cord storage compartment (Y) at the base of the appliance until you
hear a slight click.
USING THE IRON AS IRONING SYSTEM (FIG. 2)
Filling the tank before use
Warning!
Make sure the unit has been disconnected from the mains supply before filling the
tank (B) with water.
Before plugging it in, completely unwind the power cord. Lift the tank cap (C). Fill the tank
with cool tap water (Fig. 7).
NEVER fill the tank beyond the MAX level.
The appliance works with regular tap water. If the tap water is particularly hard (higher
than 20°F), use a mixture of 50% tap water and 50% demineralized water.
Never use pure demineralized water.
Do not add any additives or chemicals (such as for example, amides, starches, perfume
or other); Otherwise, the warranty may be revoked.
Warning!
To avoid damaging the pump, never operate the appliance without any water in
the tank, even for dry ironing.
Close the tank lid (C).
Switching on the appliance
Place the appliance on a horizontal and stable surface. The power cord (A) and the
iron/boiler connecting cable (Q) are coupled to the connections on the cord storage
compartment (Y) (Fig. 3). Connect the appliance to the power supply, ensuring that the
voltage indicated on the identification plate corresponds to your local power supply.
Before you turn on the appliance, make sure there is sufficient water inside the
tank.
Press the iron power switch (Fig. 10) and set the temperature control knob to the desired
temperature. Press the tank power switch (Fig. 9). When the steam ready light (S) turns
on, the steam is ready.
When first used, the iron may give out a little smoke: This transitory effect is
perfectly normal and will disappear very soon.
On first use, after filling the tank, it is necessary to adjust the temperature control knob
(M) over the symbol (•••) and press the steam button (L) Fig. 11 until the iron does not
produce steam (about one minute) Fig. 13. The iron is now ready for use. Before applying
a jet of steam to the article to be ironed, release two or three good jets of steam towards
the floor to stabilise the steam flow.
Warning!
Do not release steam when the iron is standing on its grille rest (E).
The boiler is now automatically filled by a pump which produces a noise (vibration) lasting
a few seconds every time it is activated. A decrease in the steam output may occur soon
after the pump starts operating: it is perfectly normal and after a few seconds the steam
will again be regular.
