Melissa 641-046 Iron User Manual


 
Setting the temperature
Important! Set the iron (1) on the water reservoir (7), so that it stands on
its soleplate.
Plug in and switch the current on.
Select the required iron temperature using the thermostat button (5):
“•” Synthetic fabrics (nylon, polyester, acrylic, etc.)
“••” Wool, silk or blends
“•••” Cotton or linen
Do not start ironing before the thermostat light (6) goes out. The
thermostat light switches on and off during the ironing, as the
thermostat regulates the temperature of the iron.
If you turn the temperature up using the thermostat button, you should
not start to iron until the thermostat light goes out.
Steam ironing
Steam ironing is only possible at high temperatures. Do not use steam
ironing when the thermostat button is in position “•”. If you do, water runs
out from the soleplate, because the iron is not hot enough to convert all
water to steam.
Check that there is sufficient water in the reservoir.
Set the thermostat button in the required position (at least “••”).
Plug in. Start ironing when the thermostat light goes out.
•Press one of the two arrow buttons on the control panel for steam
selection (10) to select a steam setting. You can choose between the
following settings:
1. Minimum continuous steam
2. Medium continuous steam
3. Maximum continuous steam
Hold the button for continuous steam (4) down. The iron gives off
continuous steam from the soleplate (the power supply makes a brief
buzzing sound). The indicator light (2) stays on as long as the function is
active. Start steam ironing.
Release the continuous steam button to stop continuous steam.
Steam shot
This function provides extra steam when you want to remove marks or
creases. This function cannot be used before the thermostat button goes
off.
Hold the steam shot button (3) down. The iron gives off automatic
steam shots from the soleplate at approximately 2-second intervals.
The indicator light (2) and the steam shot indicator on the control panel
(10) stay lit as long as the button is held down and the function is active.
Dry ironing
Dry ironing can be performed in the same way as steam ironing, but do not
press buttons 3 and 4.
Limescale filter
The water reservoir is equipped with a limescale filter (12), which reduces
limescale in the reservoir and extends the life of the iron.
Tips!
Always iron synthetic fabrics and silk on the reverse. This avoids shiny
spots on the fabric.
The steam shot function can also be used when the iron is held upright.
This is useful if you want to remove marks or creases from hanging
garments, curtains, etc.
•Wool products (100% wool) may be pressed when the iron is set to
steam position. We recommend using the setting for maximum
continuous steam, with a layer of dry fabric between the iron and the
item to ironed.
CLEANING
Remove the plug from the socket before cleaning.
Pour any excess water from the water reservoir.
•Stand the iron upright, and allow it to cool completely.
Remove starch etc. from the soleplate using a damp cloth with a little
cleaning agent. Wipe off with a dry cloth.
Never use a scouring sponge or abrasive cleaning agents on the
soleplate.
Check regularly that the cord and plug are in good condition before the
steam station is used.
