LINEN” position (fig.3), by turning the knob (1).
- Wait until both the boiler switch (2) and the “Iron
heating” indicator light (3a) switch off (about 10
minutes). Press the steam request button (3) on
the iron to make steam come out from the holes
on the soleplate. Releasing the button, the
steam stops (fig.4).
- In order to have a continuous steam jet, move
the button (11) forward. Steam will keep on
coming out, even if you release the steam re-
quest button. To interrupt the outlet, move the
button (11) backwards (fig.5).
- By turning the steam flow regulation knob (10)
you can vary the amount of steam according to
the type of textile to be ironed (more or less del-
icate). You can use this control to increase the
steam flow by turning in anti-clockwise direc-
tion. Turning the control in a clockwise direction
reduces the steam flow (fig.6).
During the initial operation of the
iron, a few drops of water mixed with steam may
come out of the soleplate until the temperature
stabilizes. It is advisable to direct the first jets of
steam onto an old cloth until a uniform stable jet
of steam is obtained.
DRY IRONING
For dry ironing:
- Plug the power cable in.
- Press the iron switch (4), leaving the boiler
switch (2) OFF .
- Adjust the soleplate temperature by turning the
knob (1), set the temperature according to the
kind of fabric.
• The boiler switch (2) and the “Iron heating” indi-
cator light (3a) go ON and OFF during operation.
This means that the heating element is working
correctly to keep a constant pressure in the
boiler tank. This is a correct functioning, just
keep on ironing as usual.
• If no steam comes out of the iron, check if the
“Iron heating” indicator light (3a) is OFF and if
there is water in the boiler tank.
PATENTED SAFETY CAP /
WATER OUT
Your Vaporella is equipped with a
patented safety cap, which prevents open-
ing of the boiler tank as long as there is
any pressure remaining inside. This is an impor-
tant and indispensable safety device, and it is
necessary to follow certain procedures when re-
filling the boiler tank.
When no more steam comes out of the iron, pro-
ceed as follows:
- Switch OFF the boiler tank (2).
- Press the steam request button on the iron (3)
so as to fully exhaust the steam supply from the
boiler tank.
- Switch OFF the iron (4).
- Disconnect the power cable from the electrical
outlet.
- Unscrew anti-clockwise the patented safety cap (5).
- Wait at least for 5 minutes to allow the boiler
tank to cool down.
- When cool, carefully refill the boiler tank as de-
scribed in paragraph “PREPARATION FOR
USE”. If you refill the boiler tank when not com-
pletely cooled, we recommend to pour only very
small quantities of water, so as to avoid its im-
mediate evaporation.
KALSTOP FP2003
Water contains magnesium, mineral salts and
other deposits that may cause the formation of
scale.To prevent these deposits from damaging
the appliance, we recommend periodically
adding Kalstop FP2003 in the boiler tank, a
natural descaling agent specifically formulated
to prevent formation of limescale and protect
your appliance. Pour half vial of Kalstop into the
boiler tank containing the recommended
quantity of water. If your water supply is
particularly hard, you may want to use more
(such as 1 vial for 34 fl oz / 1 liter of water).
