push the cover (4) up and fill the tank (5)

with water through the opening (3). Use

the measuring jug (15) for convenience and ease.

5

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-

cated 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. SI-2610 iron:

the “Drip Stop” system automatically terminates the

steam generation process if the selected temperature

is too low. When the system is activated, you may

hear a click. SI-2600 iron: if the temperature is

insufficient to generate steam, water will start

dripping from the sole plate. To avoid this, always

6

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.

ENGLISH

Burst of steam in a vertical position

This function helps to freshen the appearance of curtains, jack-

ets, coats, etc. To use this function, take the following steps:

 Follow instructions in paragraph 1-4 of the section “Operation

instructions”. While selecting the temperature setting, put the

temperature control knob (10) into the “Max” position.

 While holding the iron in a vertical position, aim its sole plate

towards the articles to be ironed and push the steam burst

button (8) to produce a directional strong burst of steam from

the sole plate. Push the button several times with 5-7 seconds

intervals until the article is fully refreshed. If during the process

your water tank (5) runs out of water, disconnect the appliance

from the mains outlet, wait till it cools down, refill the tank and

plug the appliance back into the power supply and continue the

process.

Spray

Using the water spray (7) will help when ironing details of the

article (cuffs, trimmings, plackets, etc) or clothes, which demand

“·” (low temperature) ironing, when steam ironing is not possible.

Push the button several times to moisten the material.

5. When you have finished cleaning or ironing, do not forget to

switch the iron off by putting the steam control knob (9) into

the “0” position, the temperature control knob (10) — into

the “Min” position and unplugging the appliance from the

mains supply outlet.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning of the sole plate

 The scale on the sole plate can be removed

with a rough cotton cloth dampened with a

vinegar solution.

 Do not use any abrasive substances and

materials to clean the sole plate.

Cleaning of internal parts of the appliance

SI-2610 iron is equipped with an anti-scale function which

protects it from an accumulation of scale: it does this with a built-in

permanent filter. Therefore the water hardness is reduced and

the useful service life of the iron is extended.

Warning: in areas with very hard water it is recommended

that you regularly remove scale from the appliance to

7

maintain it in good working order. Excess lime scale

may result in damage or malfunction of your product.

If in your area the water is soft and you have average amounts

of clothes to be ironed then we recommend you to de-scale every

6 months. If you use SI-2600 iron and if the water in your area

is very hard or if you iron frequently, then we recommend you

de-scale once a month.

Your iron has a self-cleaning function, which allows you to

clean the internal parts of the appliance from scale or dust. To use

this function perform the following procedure:

1. Set the steam control knob (9) into the “0” position.

2. Fill the tank (5) with water to the “Max” level.

3. Place the iron in a vertical position and plug it into the mains supply

outlet.

4. Set the temperature control knob (10) into the “Max” posi-

tion. The light indicator (11) will light up showing that the iron

is being heated to the desired temperature.

5. When the iron reaches the maximum temperature, the light

indicator (11) will go out.

6. Whilst holding the appliance horizontally over a sink, set the steam

control knob (9) into the “Self-Clean” position. Hot steam

will discharge from the sole plate (12) removing the scale and

dust. If the blast of steam becomes weaker, set the control

knob (9) into the “0” position and wait for 12-15 seconds until

the iron gets hot again. Then once again set the control knob

into the “Self-clean” position.

7. When the water tank (5) is completely empty, set the steam control

knob (9) into the “0” position.

8. Put the appliance into a vertical position and re-heat the iron.

9. To complete the cleaning process; Iron a piece of a clean old cotton

cloth in order to clean the sole plate (12) of any remaining dust

and scale and to evaporate the remaining water. When you have

finished ironing, always switch the appliance off and disconnect

from the electrical supply.

Storage

Before storing the iron, make sure it is disconnected from the mains

supply outlet and is completely cooled down. Set the temperature

control knob into the “Min” position and the steam control knob

into the “0” position. Drain the remaining water from the tank (5)

by opening the cover (4) and holding the iron upside down over

the sink. Store the appliance in the upright standing position.

USEFUL TIPS

Selection of temperature settings

 Before ironing, we recommend that you orga-

nize your clothes, into the types of material

and the recommended temperature settings.

ENGLISH

 We recommend that you start ironing, using

the lower temperature settings first: the appli-

ance gets hot quicker than it cools down.

 When ironing articles made with combinations of fibers, start

with the temperature recommended for the most delicate ma-

terial first (for example, to iron a cloth made of cotton and

polyester select the temperature recommended for ironing

polyester first).

 If the manufacturer’s label, which gives the recommended

temperature, is missed and the type of material is known, fol-

low the recommendations below.

 If you do not know the fabric type, find a place on the article;

which will not be seen and test iron it to select the appropriate

temperature, start with the minimum setting.

Ironing of selected fabrics

 Do not use the water spray button (7) while ironing silk ar-

ticles: drops of water leave spots on silk garments.

 Wool, velour, velvet and similar pile fabrics must be ironed on

the inside.

 To prevent shiny marks we recommend that you iron woolen

articles through a thin cotton cloth, set the steam control knob

into the maximum position.

ENTRETIEN ET NETTOYAGE

Nettoyage de la semelle

 Le dépôt sur la semelle peut être éliminé à

l’aide d’un tissu de coton grossier imprégné

de solution aquatique de vinaigre.

 Ne pas utiliser des produits et des matériaux

abrasifs pour le nettoyage de la semelle.

Nettoyage des parties intérieures du fer à

repasser

Votre fer à repasser SI-2610 est aménagé de la fonction

protection du tartrage: il possède un filtre incorporé permanent

qui réduit la quantité de chaux dans l’eau. Ainsi, la dureté d’eau

se réduit, ce qui permet au fer de servir plus longtemps.

Attention: dans les régions où l’eau est dure, il est nécessaire

de détartrer régulièrement l’appareil pour le maintenir

en bon état, car le dépôt de tartre dans l’appareil peut

résulter en mauvais fonctionnement ou une panne.

La fréquence du détartrage dépend de la dureté d’eau du

robinet dans votre région et de la fréquence d’utilisation de l’appareil:

en moyenne, un fer à repasser nécessite un détartrage tous les six

mois. Pour SI-2600 réduisez cette période jusqu’à un mois, si l’eau

dans votre région est très dure ou si vous repassez souvent.

Votre fer à repasser possède la fonction auto-nettoyage. Pour

détartrer les parties intérieures du fer et éliminer la poussière,

faites ce qui suit:

1. Mettez le régulateur de vaporisation (9) en position «0».

2. Remplissez le réservoir (5) d’eau jusqu’à la marque «Max».

3. Mettez le fer en position verticale et connectez-le au réseau.

4. Mettez le thermorégulateur (10) en position «Max».

L’indicateur lumineux (11) s’allume, signalant que le fer est en

cours de chauffage jusqu’à la température programmée.

5. En atteignant la température maximale, l’indicateur lumineux

(11) s’éteint.

6. En tenant le fer à l’horizontale au-dessus de l’évier, mettez le

régulateur de vaporisation (9) en position «Self-Clean» et

maintenez-le en cette position. La vapeur chaude aux

gouttelettes microscopiques d’eau sortant de la semelle (12),

éliminera le tartre et la poussière. Si le jet de vapeur commence

à faiblir, mettez le régulateur (9) en position «0» et attendez

12 à 15 secondes jusqu’à ce que le fer chauffe de nouveau.

Ensuite, remettez le régulateur en position «Self-Clean».

7. Quand le réservoir à l’eau (5) sera complètement vide,

remettez le régulateur de vaporisation (9) en position «0».

8. Posez le repasseur dans la position horisontale et attendez

jusqu’au moment quand il sera rechaufé de nouveau.

9. Repassez un chiffon de coton propre pour nettoyer la semelle

du fer (12) des restes de poussière et de tartre et pour évaporer

les restes d’eau. Après la fin de repassage, n’oubliez pas de

débrancher le fer, en mettant le régulateur de vaporisation

16

(9) en position «0», le thermorégulateur (10) en position

«Min» et en sortant la fiche (13) de la prise de courant.

Stockage

Avant de ranger l’appareil, assurez-vous que l’appareil est

déconnecté du réseau et froid. Mettez le thermorégulateur en posi-

tion «Min», et le régulateur de vaporisation, en position «0». Jetez

les restes d’eau du réservoir (5), ayant ouvert le couvercle (4) et en

renversant le fer au-dessus l’évier. Gardez le fer en position verticale.

CONSEILS UTILES

Choix de température

 Il est conseillé de trier les vêtements en fonction

des types de tissu et du mode thermique

recommandé.

 Pour repasser des tissus mixtes, choisissez la

température recommandée pour le matériel le

moins thermorésistant (par exemple, pour repasser un tissu de

mélange de coton et de polyamide, choisissez le mode thermique

recommandé pour le repassage des vêtements en polyamide).

 Il est conseillé de commencer le repassage par les tissus mois

thermorésistants, exigeant donc une température plus basse:

FRANÇAIS

le fer chauffe beaucoup plus vite qu’il ne refroidit.

 Si l’étiquette du vêtement ne porte pas de recommandations du

fabriquant relatives aux choix du régime thermique, mais vous

connaissez la composition du tissu, utilisez le tableau si-dessous.

 Si vous ne connaissez pas la composition du tissu, trouvez un

endroit peu voyant, et essayez de choisir le régime thermique

convenable, en commençant par le minimum.

Repassage de certains tissus

 Ne pas utiliser le bouton de pulvérisation d’eau (7) en

repassant des tissus de soie: les gouttes d’eau laissent des

taches sur la soie.

 Repassez de l’envers la laine pure, le velours, le velours côtelé

et autres tissus à longs poils.

17

 Il est conseillé de repasser les vêtements en laine à travers un

tissu fin de coton, avec le régulateur de propulsion de vapeur

en mode maximum. Ceci aide à prévenir la brillance indésirable

du tissu.
