You should top-up the water in the tank as soon as possible (max. 2 minutes) following the same procedure as filling for the first time. This will enable you to continue ironing without interruption. If you top up too late (more than 2 minutes), 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. Steam will be ready in 5 minutes and during these 5 minutes you can hear the pump fill 4 or 5 times for about 30 seconds. The steam generator is now stabilised and will operate as normal, filling the water every now and then. When the "no water" light comes on, you should not continue steam ironing with the pump vibrating. Ironing with no water in could irreparably damage your ironing system. fig. 12 Vertical ironing The ironing system can be used for taking creases out and freshening garments on hangers, and curtains.
