CAREFULLY
IMPORTANT WARNINGS
DANGER FOR CHILDREN
DANGER DUE TO ELECTRICITY
DANGER OF DAMAGE ORIGINATING FROM OTHER CAUSES
WARNING OF BURNS
WARNING - MATERIAL DAMAGE

• If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, a 10 ampere (Europe) or 15 ampere (America) cord should
be used. Cords rated for less amperage may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it
cannot be pulled or tripped over.
• Do not use sparkling (carbonated) water. If your water supply is very hard, we suggest you use demineralised
water instead.
• When the iron is hot, do not rest it onto the connecting cable or the power cord. Take special care in ensuring
that the cable and the cord do not come into contact with the soleplate when it is hot.
• Do not pull the power cord to unplug the appliance.
• The appliance must only be cleaned with a soft, slightly damp cloth after unplugging the iron and allowing all its
parts to cool down. Never use solvents which may damaged the plastic parts.
• Clean the boiler at least every three months so as to eliminate any residue of time that could jeopardize proper
operation of the appliance.
• Do not pour descalers or other scented substances into the tank; under penalty of immediate cancellation of the
warranty.
• Do not wrap the power cord around the soleplate when the iron is hot.
• Do not put the soleplate in contact with metal surfaces.
• The boiler cap contains a safety device (set so that it triggers in the event of excess pressure in the boiler) and
must only replaced with an original spare part.
• To maintain the iron in good working order, disconnect the plug from the outlet at the end of every ironing
session, discharge the inside pressure by turning the grey dial around the steam button to the right until all
steam is released. Unscrew the safety cap and let the residual water in the tank evaporate. Empty the boiler.
• We decline any responsibility resulting from misuse or any use other than those covered in this booklet.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS IN A SAFE PLACE
AT ALL TIMES
Notes: when using the iron for the first time, test it on an old piece of fabric to ensure that the soleplate and the
water tank are completely clean.

HOW TO USE AS STEAM IRON (AS DEMONSTRATED)
FILLING WITH WATER BEFORE IRONING
- Make sure that the iron is disconnected from the power supply before filling.
- Place the iron on the iron base (10) in a horizontal position and use the provided measuring jug (12) and funnel
(11) to fill the boiler. see Fig. B
- ENSURE THAT THE AMOUNT OF WATER NEVER EXCEEDS 210ml or 3/4 cup of water, that is the exact
amount indicated on the measuring jug; if the amount in the boiler tank is greater that 210ml water may leak
and/or spurt from the iron’s plate at the beginning of the ironing session.
- Do not fill the boiler tank with chemical additives or other perfuming or decalcification agents.
- Pour any remaining water out after use.

BEFORE IRONING
Ensure that the safety cap on the boiler is well tightened. Turn the cap until it stops and then tighten slightly
without applying too much strength to avoid breaking the gasket, which would cause the steam to leak out.
HOW TO PRIME THE BOILER
- Fill with water using measuring cup.
- Wait until light turns off.
- Turn grey dial fully to right (continuous steam).
- Wait until the reservoir is empty and steam runs out.
- If you see excessive water during priming it is normal.
HOW TO START THE APPLIANCE
- Insert the plug into the outlet. Turn the thermostat to the #9 position, as shown in figure C.
- When the ready light (5) goes on the iron is heating up.
- Wait for 4-5 minutes until the warning light goes off.
- Now you may start to steam iron.
- If light goes back on while ironing, continue ironing.
STEAM IRONING
You may use this iron in a vertical position when smoothing out hanging clothes or on the board.
STEAM OUTFLOW
The steam outflow may be DISCONTINUOUS or CONTINUOUS.
- DISCONTINUOUS STEAM: The Steam Control Knob (2) must be turned counter-clockwise. Press the push
button (4) shown in figure D by applying more or less strength according the amount of steam desired. This will
provide the best results.
- CONTINUOUS STEAM: Turn the Steam Control Knob clockwise as shown in figure E to obtain a constant and
continuous steam. Maximum intensity can also be obtained in the DISCONTINUOUS outflow by fully pushing the
steam push button (4).
- Never overturn the iron or tilt it forward or laterally while it is being used either in the discontinuous or continuos
mode.
- Continuous steam is mainly used for draining water when iron is till hot.
We recommended you use the iron in the DISCONTINUOUS mode as you will use the least amount of
water and will get the most powerful steam in this mode.
ATTENTION
ALWAYS stop the steam out flow before resting the iron on the separate base (10).
NEVER unscrew the safety cap (1) while the iron is being used. Always turn the iron off first. Removing the plug
from the outlet (4) to use continuous steam to let out all the residual steam.
HOW TO FILL THE BOILER WHILE THE APPLIANCE IS BEING USED
If you need to fill the boiler during an ironing, the following operations should be carried out:
- Remove the plug from the outlet.
- Fully press the push button (4) to let out all residual steam
- Unscrew the safety cap (1) this operation is made easier with the safety cap remover supplied.
- SLOWLY pour a small amount of water into the boiler tank 2-3 times to allow the steam to come out of the
filling tube. Then fill the boiler as usual.
- Screw the safety cap on tightly.
- Insert the plug into the outlet.
- Steam will recommence after a short time.
Remember that the amount of water to be poured into the boiler tank while the iron is being used should
not exceed 210ml or 3/4 cup as indicated on the measuring jug. To ensure the right quantity of water is
poured into the boiler tank, always drain the tank before refilling.
TIPS AND SUGGESTIONS FOR STEAM IRONING
- When using a vertical (hanging) position gently skim fabric (lightly touch) with iron while pushing and releasing
white steam button. Ideal for all clothing while hanging or draperies while hanging.

-Remember steam can also be used on delicate fabrics.
- Crease lines for pants/slacks are best done on the ironing board for a nice sharp crease.
- No pressing cloth is required.
DRY IRONING (NOT AS DEMONSTRATED)
- First make sure that there is no water in the boiler tank or stop the steaming by completely turning the steam
control knob (2) in a counter-clockwise direction.
- Select the temperature best suited for the fabric by means of the thermostat knob. Fig. C. Refer to the table
below.
Note: This symbol on label means: this article cannot be ironed! (e.g. chlorofibre, elastodiene).
DRY IRONING CHART
HOW TO STORE EUROSTEAM EVOLUTION IRON
- Switch off the iron by turning the thermostat knob to “MIN”.
- Disconnect the plug from the outlet.
- Let out all the residual steam by using continuous steam.
- Let the iron cool down.
- Unscrew the safety cap (1) by means of the provided cap remover (3), overturn the iron and pour any remaining
water out of the boiler (Fig. F). Be careful of the hot water to avoid burns. This allows to always keep the boiler
tank well clean.
- When putting away the appliance at the end of the ironing session, do not screw the safety cap (1) down
completely but only by 3-4 turns.
- Turn the steam control knob in an anticlockwise direction until it stops, fully to the left side.
CLEANING
We suggest that these operations be carried out when water drops leaking out the soleplate are noticed, and in
any case every 3 months.
- To clean reservoir, pour equal portions of white vinegar and demineralized water into measuring cup, plug iron
in and leave cap off. The vinegar and water will boil in reservoir for 5-10 minutes.
- Empty the reservoir and refill with water. Give a good shake and empty water out.
Soleplate
- Before cleaning the iron, ensure that it is disconnected from the power supply and has completely cooled down.
- Do not use abrasives on the soleplate.
- Deposits and other residues on the soleplate can be removed with a rough cloth soaked in a vinegar and water
solution.
- Keep the soleplate smooth: avoid contact with hard and metal objects.
Boiler Tank
- Pour 1/4 cup vinegar and 1/4 cup distilled water into the boiler tank.
- Plug into outlet and set the thermostat control #9 setting.
- Let sit for 4-5 minutes, ans shake vigorously.
- Let cool for 10 minutes, push the steam push button until no more steam comes out and then unscrew and
empty.
This may need to be done several times depending on how long since last cleaning and type of water used.
