INSTRUCTIONS STEAM IRONING Before steam ironing, make sure the fabric is suitable for this kind of ironing. The machine works with normal tap water. In case of very hard water (hardness above 27°F) we suggest using 50% distilled water diluted with tap water. Never use chemical substances or detergents (eg perfumed water, essences, descaling solutions, etc). Filling the tank and connecting to the mains Make sure the power cable is unplugged from the mains socket. Lift the fill door (10) using the special tab. NEVER exceed the MAX level indicated by the arrow. Always top up with water each time you turn your ironing system on, even if you want to dry iron. Operation Press the switch (5) to turn power to the appliance on. The "steam ready" light (8) and "iron at temperature" light (3) come on. 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. [. . . ] This will enable you to continue ironing without interruption. If you delay topping up (for more than 5 minutes) and the steam generator cools down, the system will stop discharging steam. Once the level of water in the tank has been topped up, the appliance will operate as if turned on for the first time, in other words, steam will be ready in five minutes. During these 5 minutes you can hear the pump fill 4 or 5 times for about 30 seconds. [. . . ]
