Locking system or retaining the iron on the base (depending on model)
Your steam generator is itted with a retaining hoop to hold the iron onto the base with a locked position or
easy transport and storage:
• Locking.
• Unlocking.
To transport your steam generator using the handle of the iron:
- Put the iron on the steam generator iron rest and raise the retaining hoop over the iron until it locks into place
(audible click).
- Hold the iron by the handle to transport your steam generator.
Preparation
What water may be used ?
• Tap water:
Your appliance has been designed to function using untreated tap water. f your water is very hard, we recom-
mend you use a mix of 50% untreated tap water and 50% distilled water available in hardware stores.
• Types of water not to use:
Heat concentrates the elements contained in water during evaporation. The types of water listed below may
contain organic waste, mineral or chemical elements that can cause spitting, brown staining or premature wear
of the appliance: water from clothes dryers, scented or softened water, water from refrigerators, batteries, air
conditioners, rain water, boiled, filtered or bottled water. These types of water should not be used in your TEFAL
iron. Also only use distilled water as advised above.
Always remember:
Never use rainwater or water containing additives (like starch, fragrance or water from domestic appliances). Such
additives can affect the steam properties and at high temperature, form deposits in the steam generator cham-
ber which are likely to stain your washing.
Filling the water tank
• We recommend that you use a mesh type ironing board to allow steam to pass through the garments for
better ironing results and also to prevent steam venting sideways.
• Check that your appliance is unplugged and open the flap on the tank.
• Pour in untreated tap water up to the max mark.
Switch the steam generator on
The irst time the appliance is used, there may be some umes and smell but this is not harm ul. They will
not a ect use and will disappear rapidly.
• Put the steam generator on a flat, stable, horizontal surface that is heatproof.
• Always ensure that the base unit is positioned close enough to the ironing surface to avoid straining and wear
of the steam cord.
• Completely unwind the power cord and take the steam cord out of its storage space.
• Plug your steam generator into an earthed socket.
• Press the «ON-OFF» button.
• The «ON-OFF» button light remains flashing while the appliance is warming up. When the light stops flashing

(after approximately 2 minutes) the steam generator is ready.
Operating the control panel
• The blue light of the «ON-OFF» button is flashing : the boiler is heating up. When the light stops flashing, the
steam generator is ready.
• The red «Water tank empty» button light is flashing : the water tank is empty. Fill the tank and press the «OK»
button to switch the light off . See paragraph «Refilling the water tank during use»
• The orange «Anti-calc» light is flashing : maintenance is required, see paragraph «Maintenance and cleaning».
• Your steam generator comes with an automatic shut-off system after approximately 8 minutes without use.
The «ON-OFF» button light is flashing: the steam generator is on standby. Press the «ON-OFF» button or the
steam shot button to start ironing again. See paragraph «AUTO-OFF» System.

Steam ironing
• We recommend that you use a mesh type ironing board to allow steam to pass through the garments for better
ironing results and also to prevent steam venting sideways
• To obtain steam, press the steam control button under the iron handle. The steam will stop when you release
the button.
• After approximately one minute, and regularly while it is being used, your steam generator’s electric pump in-
jects water into the boiler. t makes a noise but this is quite normal.
• f you are using starch, always spray it onto the reverse side of the fabric to be ironed.
Do not iron over zips, studs or other hard or sharp objects which may damage the soleplate. Do not place the
iron on a metal support. When taking a break rom ironing, always place the iron on the iron rest plate o
the unit. It is equipped with non-slip pads and has been designed to withstand high temperatures.
EFFECTIS EASY

mum temperature and steam combination allowing you to iron all your ironable fabrics without risk and wi-
thout having to sort them.
