To clean, when cold, wipe the surface with a damp cloth. The iron must never be treated with descaling products. · During use, the iron can be rested in a "vertical" position (fig. Make sure the surface is level and stable to avoid the iron falling over. · After use, always wait for the iron to cool down before putting away. · After ironing, the water remaining in the steam generator need not be drained. · · · · · · However, the appliance should be drained of water if left unused for long periods. Separate clothes according to the recommended ironing temperature and begin ironing with items requiring the lowest temperatures. In models with professional iron fitted with a bimetal plate, ironing is facilitated by the two materials with different and complementary characteristics. The aluminium distributes heat evenly across the plate, while the stainless steel ensures the iron slides easily, thus making ironing more comfortable and less tiring. Wool, cotton and fine linen can either be steam-ironed on the reverse or on the right side, interposing a thin cloth between the iron and the fabric to avoid "shine". Starched fabrics require greater moisture. Iron whites and light colours on the right side and dark colours on the reverse. [. . . ] The "steam ready" light incorporated in the switch (16) and the "iron at temperature" light (4) on the iron come on. Operation (all models): NB: When used for the first time, the appliance may give off smoke and an odour for several minutes. This is caused by heating and subsequent drying of the sealers used in assembling the steam generator and iron. Position the thermostat regulation knob (3) in the area indicated in figure 4 or 5 (depending on model) according to the type of fabric to be ironed (fig. [. . . ]
