9 • “PRECISION STEAM JET” FUNCTION
(DEPENDING ON THE MODEL)
Your generator has a “Precision Steam Jet” function, allowing you to:
- Iron the most hard-to-reach areas (such as button holes, shirt cuffs and collars, darts in trousers,
the inside of jacket and coat sleeves);
- Soften the fibres before ironing, when the fabric is very creased.
Use:
- With the iron on the ironing board,
press the “Precision Steam Jet”
button on the iron handle 2 or 3 times
to obtain short, powerful bursts of steam
at the front of the iron (12);
- Then iron the fabric using steam from
the soleplate to smooth the fibres,
by pressing the steam control button
beneath the iron handle (13).

7 • VERTICAL STEAM IRONING
1. Set the iron temperature control and the steam output control dial (located on the control panel)
to the maximum position.
2. Hang the garment on a coat hanger and hold the fabric slightly taut with one hand.
As steam is very hot, never attempt to remove creases from a garment
while it is being worn, always hang garments on a coat hanger.
3. Holding the iron in a vertical position, press repeatedly on the steam
control button (beneath the iron handle) moving the iron from top
to bottom (10).
Recommendations:
For fabrics other than linen or cotton, hold the iron a few cen-
timetres from the garment to avoid burning the fabric.
Be careful :
Use the humid steam function very carefully because of
the exceptional power of steam that may cause burns.
8 • HUMID STEAM FUNCTION (DEPENDING ON THE MODEL)
The humid steam button adds water vapour to the steam output.
Press 2 or 3 times on the humid steam button (11) to obtain a more
powerful, heavier burst of steam :
• for ironing thicker fabrics,
• to eliminate creases,
• for powerful vertical steam ironing.
