• Your iron is equipped with an extension cord system to prevent the cord from dragging
over the laundry and creasing it again when ironing. It also keeps the cord out of the
way of your hand.
Ironing with the Ultracord system:
- The Ultracord system automatically tips back.
- Each time you put the iron back on its base, the Ultracord system fits into the heel of
the iron and opens back up automatically when you use the iron.
Storing the generator:
- Fold the connector back onto the heel.
- A magnet holds the connector to the heel of the iron, making your generator easy to
store – fig.8.
•
Completely unwind the power cord and the steam cord from its storage
space– fig.23.
•
Lower the retaining hoop (depending on model) to unlock the safety catch
– fig.3.
•
Plug in your steam generator to an earthed socket.
•
Press on the on / off switch. The green light (located on the control panel)
flashes and the boiler heats up – fig.14.
When the green "steam ready" light stops flashing (after 2 minutes approximately),
the appliance is ready.

YPE OF FABRICS
Linen, cotton
Silk, Wool
Synthetics
(polyester, acetate, acrylic, polyamide)
Check the garment label if you are not sure what type of fabric it is made of.
•
Place the iron's temperature control slide according to the type of fabric to be
ironed (see table below).
•
The thermostat light comes on. Be careful ! The steam generator is ready
when the thermostat light goes out and when the green "steam ready" light
stays on.
•
Adjust the steam output control dial (located on the control panel).
•
While ironing, the light on top of the iron and the steam ready light turn on
and off, as the temperature adjusts without interrupting ironing.
•
To obtain steam, press on the steam control button under the iron handle and
keep it pressed – fig.10. The steam will stop when you release the button.
•
When starting, and regularly while it is being used, your steam generator's
electric pump injects water into the boiler. It makes a noise but this is quite
normal. You may also hear a clicking noise which is the steam valve opening.
Again this is normal.
•
Always spray starch onto the reverse side of the fabric to be ironed
