[. . . ] However, for very thick or creased fabrics, we recommend that you use the maximum steam output or the Boost function in order to ensure optimum results. € During ironing the iron indicator light switches on and off according to heating requirements but this has no effect on use. € To obtain steam, press on the steam control button beneath the iron handle and keep it pressed - fig. € Always spray starch on the reverse side of the fabric to be ironed. Recommendations: To prime the steam circuit, either before using the iron for the first time, or if you have not used the steam function for a few minutes, press the steam control button several times in a row - fig. Use the Precision Shot • Your appliance comes with a Precision Shot function : It allows you to make a concentrated steam injection when ironing hard creases, details and difficult access areas. € To use this function, press fully on the Precision Shot button located on top of your iron as many times as necessary – fig. Use the Precision Shot function carefully, as the steam comes out with exceptional force and could cause burns. 75 1800129089 DG8960 F0_110 x 154 28/01/13 10:21 Page76 8 • Vertical steam ironing • Set the iron temperature control to the maximum position (•••) and press the Boost/vertical steam button. € Hang the garment on a coat hanger and hold the fabric slightly taut with one hand. 12 (beneath the iron handle) moving the iron from top to bottom - fig. Examples of how to use the vertical steaming function: • Removing creases from delicate fabrics hung on a coat hanger that you do not want to bring into contact with the hot iron. As steam is very hot: never attempt to remove creases from a garment while it is being worn, always hang garments on a coat hanger. For fabrics other than linen or cotton, hold the iron a few centimetres from the garment to avoid burning the fabric. 11 • Storing the steam generator • Turn off and unplug the steam generator. Lock the iron onto the base unit by pressing it until you hear an audible “click”, so your iron is secure - fig. € Leave the steam generator to cool for at least one hour before putting it away if it is to be stored in a cupboard or confined space.
