Preparing for use
Filling the water tank
1 Remove the mains plug from the wall socket.
2 Set the steam control to position O (= no steam) (Fig. 2).
3 Open the cap of the filling opening.
4 Tilt the iron and fill the water tank up to maximum level (Fig. 3).
If the tap water in your area is very hard, we advise you to use distilled water.
Do not use chemically descaled water.
Do not fill the water tank beyond the MAX indication.
Do not put perfume, vinegar, starch, descaling agents, ironing aids or other
chemicals in the water tank.
5 Close the cap of the filling opening ('click').
Setting the temperature
, The iron may give off some smoke when you use it for the first time. This will
cease after a short while.
1 Put the iron on its heel and set the temperature dial to the required ironing
temperature by turning it to the appropriate position (Fig. 4).
- Check the laundry care label for the required ironing temperature.
- Synthetic fabrics (e.g. acrylic, viscose, polyamide, polyester)
1
- Silk
1
- Wool
2
- 3 Cotton, linen
- If you do not know what kind or kinds of fabric an article is made of, determine
the right ironing temperature by ironing a part that will not be visible when you
wear or use the article.
- Silk, woollen and synthetic materials: iron the reverse side of the fabric to prevent
shiny patches. Avoid using the spray function to prevent stains.
2 Put the mains plug in an earthed wall socket.
3 When the temperature light has gone out, wait a while before you start
ironing.
Note: The temperature light will go on from time to time during ironing.
Using the appliance
Steam ironing
Make sure that there is enough water in the water tank.
1 Set the temperature dial to the recommended position (see section 'Setting
the temperature').
2 Set the steam control to the appropriate steam position (Fig. 2).
- ç for minimum steam (temperature settings 2 and 3).
- é for maximum steam (temperature settings 3 to MAX).
Note: The iron will start steaming as soon as the set temperature has been reached.
RI2640/RI2620/RI2530/RI2528/RI2520/RI2510 only:
Water may leak from the soleplate if the set temperature is too low (MIN to 2).
Ironing without steam
1 Set the steam control to position O (= no steam).
2 Set the temperature dial to the recommended position (see section 'Setting
the temperature').
Features
Spray function
You can use the spray function to remove stubborn creases at any temperature
1 Make sure that there is enough water in the water tank.
2 Press the spray button several times to moisten the article to be ironed
(Fig. 5).
Shot of steam
A powerful shot of steam helps to remove very stubborn creases.
The shot-of-steam function only works at temperature settings between 2 and
MAX.
1 Press and release the shot-of-steam button (Fig. 6).
Vertical shot of steam (all types except RI2510)
1 The shot-of-steam function can also be used when you are holding the iron
in vertical position. This is useful for removing creases from hanging clothes,
curtains, etc (Fig. 7).
Never direct the steam at people.
Drip stop (RI2652/RI2650/RI2560/RI2522 only)
This iron is equipped with a drip stop function: the iron automatically stops producing
steam when the temperature is too low to prevent water from dripping out of the
soleplate. When this happens you will hear a click.
Automatic shut-off (RI2560 only)
The electronic shut-off function automatically switches the heating element off if the
iron has not been moved for a while.
The automatic shut-off light starts blinking to indicate that the heating element
,
has been switched off (Fig. 8).
To let the iron heat up again, pick the iron up or move it slightly. The automatic shut-
off light goes out.
1 If the temperature light goes on, wait for it to go out before you start ironing.
2 If the temperature light does not go on, the iron is ready for use.
Cleaning and maintenance
Double-Active Calc System
- All types except RI2510: The Anti-Calc tablet prevents scale from clogging
the steam vents. The tablet is constantly active and does not need to be
replaced (Fig. 9).
- The Calc-Clean function removes the scale particles.
Calc-Clean function
Use the Calc-Clean function once every two weeks. If the water in your area is
very hard (i.e. when flakes come out of the soleplate during ironing), the Calc-Clean
function should be used more frequently.
1 Set the steam control to position O.
2 Fill the water tank to the maximum level.
Do not pour vinegar or other descaling agents into the water tank..
3 Set the temperature dial to MAX (Fig. 10).
4 Put the plug in the wall socket.
5 Unplug the iron when the temperature light has gone out.
6 Hold the iron over the sink and set the steam control to the Calc-Clean
position (1). The steam control will spring up slightly.
7 Pull the steam control upwards and remove it (Fig. 11).
8 Hold the iron over the sink and move it to and fro (Fig. 12).
Note: Steam and boiling water will come out of the soleplate. Impurities and scale (if any)
will be flushed out.
9 Use vinegar to remove scale, if any, from the steam control needle (Fig. 13).
Do not bend or damage the steam control needle.
10 Put the steam control back into the iron by inserting the point of the needle
exactly in the centre of the hole and by fitting the small projection on the side
of the needle into the slot. Press down the steam control while turning it to
position O (Fig. 14).
11 Repeat the Calc-Clean process if the iron still contains a lot of impurities.
After the Calc-Clean process
1 Put the plug in the wall socket and let the iron heat up to allow the soleplate
to dry.
2 Unplug the iron when the temperature light has gone out.
3 Move the iron gently over a piece of used cloth to remove any water stains
that may have formed on the soleplate.
Storage
1 Set the steam control to position O, remove the plug from the wall socket
and let the iron cool down.
2 Clean the appliance and wipe scale and any other deposits off the soleplate
with a damp cloth and a non-abrasive (liquid) cleaner.
Keep the soleplate smooth: avoid hard contact with metal objects.
Never use a scouring pad, vinegar or other chemicals.
3 Regularly rinse the water tank with water and empty it after cleaning (Fig. 15).
4 Wind the mains cord round the cord storage facility (Fig. 16).
5 Always store the iron standing on its heel in a safe and dry place.
Environment
- Do not throw away the appliance with the normal household waste at the end
of its life, but hand it in at an official collection point for recycling. By doing this,
you help to preserve the environment (Fig. 17).
