Binatone SI-2500: INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE: Binatone SI-2500

Note: If your area has hard water, we recommend you use

filtered or bottled water.

Attention: Always disconnect the iron from the electricity

mains supply prior to filling the tank (5). Do not

overfill the tank (see the “Max” mark on the tank

(5). Do not fill the tank (5) with other liquids.

Prior to first use iron a clean old piece of cotton cloth to make sure

the sole plate and the water tank are absolutely clean (see

subsection “Steam ironing”).

Note: Light smoke may emit during the first use of the

appliance: it is a normal occurrence that will soon

disappear.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

1. Place the iron into a vertical position.

2. Insert the power plug (13) into the mains supply

outlet.

3. Turn the temperature control knob (10) to set

the temperature recommended by the

manufacturer of the textile article (usually

indicated on the article’s label).

Note: In case the manufacturer’s recommendations are

missed, select the temperature setting, which

corresponds to the type of the cloth to be ironed (see

section “Useful advice”).

4. The operation indicator (11) will light up to indicate that the iron is

being heated to the set temperature level. When the set

temperature level is reached, the light indicator (11) will turn off.

Note: During operation of the appliance the light indicator

will light up and turn off periodically; this is normal

and not a malfunction.

Steam ironing

Dry ironing can be used at any temperature setting. To do this the

steam control knob (9) must be put into the “0” position. If you intend

to use the steam function, allow the iron to heat to the required

temperature level then put the control knob (9) into the required position.

Attention: Application of the steam ironing function is

impossible at “ ” temperature setting. If the

temperature is insufficient to generate steam, water

will start dripping from the sole plate. To avoid this,

always put the steam control knob (9) into the “0”

position prior to ironing at low temperatures.

Turbo steam

To ease ironing of dense cotton, linen and upholstery articles use

the steam burst button (8): engagement of the button (8) during the

ironing process generates an extra burst of steam from the sole plate

to help remove stubborn creases.
