Binatone SI-2600: INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE: Binatone SI-2600

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 manu-

facturer of the textile article (usually indi-

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.

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. SI-2610 iron:
