Ironing system

Thank you for choosing this ironing system.To get the very
best out of your new ironing system it is advisable to read
these instructions before using it.This will ensure that you
gain optimum results and use the appliance safely.
About your ironing system
The system uses normal tap water. If the water in your area is very
hard, mix half tap water with half distilled water.
Do not use chemicals or detergents such as fragrances or scale
removers in the tank as this could cause damage.
The ironing system should be placed for use on a flat, stable, heat
resistant surface.
During use, the iron can be rested in a "vertical" position (fig. 1).
However, make sure the surface is even to avoid the iron falling over.
The ironing system takes approximately 4 minutes to heat up. We
suggest you fill it up and switch it on (following the instructions
below), and then gather your ironing so you don’t waste any time.
IMPORTANT: When using for the first time, fill the water
tank completely before turning on. Once turned on wait for 5
minutes. After around 5 minutes you will hear the pump fill 4
or 5 times for about 30 seconds. It is now ready to use. It
should not be necessary to do this again.
Filling and preparing for use
Before starting to iron, you can put the cable wand in the correct
position to optimise movement of the steam connecting cord and
avoid obstructing ironing.
If you are right-handed, extract the left wand by pulling out first
the back part then the front with an upwards movement (fig. 2).
Then position the wand in the housing in line with the other wand
(fig. 3).
If you are left-handed, perform the above operation with the right
wand (fig. 4).
To put the wand away after ironing, perform the operation in
reverse, inserting first the front part, then the back.
Important: during ironing, the wand fixed to the base of
the control unit could become hot. Do not touch!
• Lift the fill door using the special tab.Top up until you see water
appear in the filling area (fig. 5).
• Then plug the appliance into the mains.
Always top up with water each time you turn your ironing sys-
tem on, even if you want to dry iron. This will prolong the life
of your ironing system.
