Using the Steam Generator for steam ironing
(continued)
5
Press the relevant button to either increase (32) or decrease (33)
the steam level. The selected steam level will be displayed by
illumination of the relevant steam level indicator light. The steam
level indicator light will stop flashing and illuminate constantly
when the selected steam level is reached.
For a strong, continuous flow of steam during ironing, press and
hold the steam trigger (4) to deliver steam through the soleplate.
WARNING: The steam supply cord (34) will get hot during use.
6
When you have finished ironing, turn off the appliance by pressing
and holding the On/Off power button (31) for three seconds. A
beep will be heard and the power indicator light (26) and steam
level indicator (27/28/29) will be extinguished.
Disconnect the plug from the mains outlet.
Steam boost button (certain models only)
7
The steam boost function is ideal for relaxing the fibres of tougher
fabrics (like jeans and linen) and getting rid of those stubborn,
hard to reach creases.
To produce a quick, powerful shot of steam during ironing, simply
press and release the steam boost button (1).
NOTE: After using the steam boost function, your steam generator
iron will require up to 5 seconds to reheat before it can produce a
second boost of steam. If you require a high level of constant
steam, choose the appropriate steam level and use the steam
trigger (4) as instructed above.
Do not combine the two steam functions. Using the two
buttons together will interrupt the flow of steam and may result in
the constant steam cutting out completely. For optimum steam
output, use each steam function separately and as detailed
above.
Filling
IN HARD WATER AREAS, WE RECOMMEND
A MIX OF 50% TAP WATER AND 50% DISTILLED OR
DEMINERALISED WATER.
Never use battery topping up fluid or water containing any
substances like starch, sugar, fragrant additives or defrosted
water from a refrigerator.
Re-filling during use
8
If the water level is too low, the low water level indicator light
(30) will illuminate, a beep will be heard, and the unit will not
produce steam. If this happens, disconnect the water tank and
refill
Features
Dry ironing
To use your steam generator as a dry iron only, follow steps 2, 3
and 4 of ‘Using the Steam Generator for steam ironing’ on page
7. You do not need to put water in the tank or select a steam
level. Press either the steam boost button (1) (certain models
only) or the steam trigger (4) at least once every 10 minutes, or
the product will automatically turn off.
Auto shut-off (certain models only)
If either the steam boost button (1) (certain models only) or the
steam trigger (4) goes unused for 10 minutes, the product will
automatically turn off for safety and to save energy, and a beep
will be heard.
To restart, press the On/Off button (31) (see step 2 of ‘Using the
Steam Generator for steam ironing’ on page 7) and wait for the
temperature to rise again.
Steam function
During steaming, small amounts of water may be ejected from
the soleplate. This is normal and can be avoided by using the
steam for short amounts of time and only when the iron is at
the correct temperature (the temperature indicator light (7) on
the iron goes out when ready).
Sudden jolts of the boiler unit can also cause water droplets on
the soleplate; therefore, do not move the base unit during
ironing.
We recommend for first time ironing that you iron over an old
towel.
NOTE: The product may occasionally produce a pumping sound
during steam ironing. This is normal and is caused by water
being pumped through the steam generator.
Vertical steam
9
Vertical steam is useful for removing creases from hanging
clothes, curtains, upholstery, etc. Hold the iron between 1cm
and 2cm away from the item and press either the steam boost
button (1) (certain models only) or the steam trigger (4).
Maintenance
10 11
Auto clean function
Each time approximately 5L of water has been used in the steam
generator, it will need to run an auto clean cycle. When the
product is fully cooled down and first switched on, it will draw
water from the water tank (15) to flush the boiler, emptying dirty
water and limescale into the dirty water chamber (10). For this
short time, the descaling indicator light (25) will flash and you will
be unable to use the product to iron.
If there is not sufficient water to operate this function, the product
will alert you with the low water level indicator light (30) and the
process will be paused until the tank is refilled and replaced.
WARNING: During the auto clean process, the water ejected
from the machine is very hot, so do not remove the water
tank until the auto clean process is finished.
The auto clean process will take approximately 3 minutes, after
which the steam generator will be ready for normal operation
again. The flashing descaling indicator light (25) will extinguish and
the low steam level indicator light (27) will flash, indicating that the
steam generator is readying itself for the low steam level setting.
After ironing, switch off the steam generator at the On/Off power
button (31) and unplug from the mains outlet. If the auto clean
function has activated and completed, wait for the steam
generator to cool down completely. Remove the detachable water
tank and tip the dirty water from the dirty water emptying holes
(11).
