6. FILLING THE WATER DEPOSIT
Place the unplugged iron on a stable
surface.
1. Slide the steam control knob (7) to the
dry iron position (Fig. C).
2. Open the lid that covers the water inlet
(5).
3. Slowly pour water into the inlet using
a cup (Fig. D). Never pour cleaning
products or solvents into the water
deposit.
4. Check that the water does not exceed
the maximum water level and replace
the cover.
Note: If the water in your area is too
hard, >27º F, we recommend that you use
distilled water. Do not use battery water
or water mixed with starch, perfume, fabric
softener, etc.
7. STEAM IRONING
Before steam ironing any garment, check
that the fabric is designed for this kind
of treatment. The appliance works with
normal tap water. If the water in your area
is very hard (hardness level over 27º F),
we recommend the use of pure distilled
water.
1. Place the unplugged iron on a stable,
heat-resistant surface.
2. Fill the water deposit (See "Filling the
deposit").
3. Turn the temperature selector (2) to
"MIN" (Fig. B).
4. Place the iron in an upright position,
resting it on the support base (10).
5. Plug the iron in and turn the temperature
selector to " " (3 dots) or "Max".
To obtain optimum results when steam
ironing, do not use the " " (1 dot) or "
" (2 dot) positions.
The pilot light (4) will come on.
When this pilot light switches off, the
iron will have reached the selected
temperature. The pilot light will turn on
and off at regular intervals during the
ironing process, indicating the cycles
of the thermostat. Remember that if
you change from a higher to a lower
temperature, the pilot light (4) will remain
off until the temperature of the base has
dropped to the selected level, at which
point it will come on again
6. Turn the steam control knob (7) to one
of the steam iron positions (fig. E). Hold
the iron in a horizontal position and
the steam outlets will begin to expel
steam. If no steam is produced, lightly
tap the iron base against the ironing
board. Setting the iron in an upright
position, resting on the support base,
will interrupt the steam expulsion.
Caution! Avoid contact with the steam
and do not direct it towards people.
7. When you have finished, turn the
temperature selector to "MIN", slide
the steam control knob to the dry iron
position (Fig. C), unplug the cable and
empty the deposit. The deposit should
be emptied after each use as follows:
Open the cover (5) and pour the water
out of the deposit (Fig. F). Press the
extra steam button to remove any water
that may still be in the deposit while
the base is still hot. Leave in an upright
position until cool.
Note: If you need to top up the deposit
while ironing, always unplug the iron
beforehand.
“IONIC” function (MOD. PL-2650)
With this function, a finer steam is
produced during steam ironing. The steam
penetrates deeper into the fabrics, thin
materials particularly, and helps remove
especially tough creases.
1. Follow the steps given in “7 STEAM
IRONING”
2. Press and hold down the “IONIC” button
(11). The “IONIC” function indicator
light (12) will come on and you will hear
a beep. The “IONIC” function is now
switched on (hold down the “IONIC”
button during ironing for this function to
remain activated). (Fig. I)
Nota: The “IONIC” function is only
effective when the temperature dial (2) and
the steam regulator "
" and “MAX/
”.
