Before use – Running in the
appliance
IMPORTANT : When the iron is used for the first time, the
steam control button must be held down for about 2 or 3
minutes until the pump starts and steam is produced.
Before first use, the appliance must be prepared by procee-
ding as follows:
1. Insert the cartridge as described in the section,
“The anti-scale cartridge”.
2. Fill the water tank with untreated tap water – do not exceed
the MAX level.
3. Plug in your steam system to an earthed socket.
4. Turn the thermostat control of the iron to the MAX position
(•••).
5. Wait for the soleplate to heat up.
6. When it reaches the correct temperature, the indicator light
will go out.
7. When the indicator light goes out,
press on the steam control button (located below the
handle of the iron) and hold it down for about 2 or 3
minutes (the time that it takes the pump to start and the
first bursts of steam from the appliance) without placing
the iron on your linen ; once the pump has started, press
the “super-pressing” control button a few times.
Your appliance is now ready for the first ironing session.
THE SOLEPLATE
Always put your iron down on the iron rest or on its heel.
The iron rest is fitted with non-slip inserts and has been
designed to withstand high temperatures.
