ADDITIONAL SAFEGUARDS

•Take care not to scratch the soleplate – avoid buttons, zips, etc.

•The iron has a protective thermal fuse, which will blow if it overheats. If this

happens, the iron will stop working, and must be returned for repair.

•Don’t use the iron if it’s dropped or damaged, or if it malfunctions or leaks.

•If the cable is damaged, return the iron, to avoid hazard.

PARTS DIAGRAM

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME:

•Don’t worry if the iron smokes a bit at first, it’ll stop as the element cures.

•Iron an old piece of cotton fabric, to clean the soleplate.

PREPARATION:

•Check for textile care symbols .

•Iron fabrics needing low temperatures first, then those that need medium

temperatures , and finish with those needing high temperatures .

FILING (#2):

•You may use the iron with tap-water, but if you live in a hard water area, you

should use distilled water (not chemically descaled or softened water).

•If you buy distilled water, check that it’s marketed as suitable for use in irons.

•Unplug the iron.

•Turn the temperature control to ●, slide the steam control to (#3).

•Hold the iron with the soleplate down (#2).

•Lift the bottom of the water inlet cover to open it.

•Pour slowly, to let the air in the reservoir escape,

otherwise you will cause an air lock and the water

will overflow.

•Don’t fill past max, or water will escape in use.

•Wipe up any spillage.

SWITCH ON:

•Place the iron on its heel.

•Put the plug into the power socket (switch the socket on, if it’s switchable).

•The thermostat light will come on.

SET THE TEMPERATURE:

•Turn the temperature control to bring the setting you

want opposite to the notch (#3).

•When the iron reaches the temperature you set, the

thermostat light will go off. It’ll then cycle on and off

as the thermostat operates to maintain the

temperature.

TEMPERATURE SETTING GUIDE:

Please Note: If the instructions on the fabric label differ from this guide, follow the

instructions on the label.

REDUCIING TEMPERATURE:

•Reducing the temperature takes a bit longer, as the element has to lose the heat

it has built up, so be patient. It’s best to organise your ironing so that you don’t

need to reduce the temperature.

STEAM IRONING:

•When steam ironing, you must set the temperature control at or higher. (#3)

•If you don’t, you’ll get water on your clothes, not steam.

•Check that there is water in the reservoir.

•The iron will adjust the amount of steam automatically.

•Wait until the thermostat light goes out then start ironing.

SPRAY:

Water spotting affects some fabrics. Test this out on a

hidden part of the fabric.

•This works with dry or steam ironing, as long as

there’s water in the reservoir.

•Check that there’s water in the reservoir.

•Lift the iron off the fabric.

•Aim the spray nozzle at the fabric.

•Press the button.

•You may have to press it 2 or 3 times to pump water through the system.

SHOT OF STEAM:

•This works with dry or steam ironing, as long as there’s

water in the reservoir, and the temperature is above . At

lower temperatures you will only get water spotting.

•Check that there’s water in the reservoir.

•Check that the temperature control is at or higher.

•Lift the iron off the fabric.

•Press the button.

•You may have to press it 2 or 3 times to pump water through the system.

DRY IRONING:

•If you’re going to be dry ironing for 20 minutes or more,

empty the reservoir first, to avoid spontaneous bursts of

steam.

•Unplug the iron.

•Hold it over a sink or basin.

•Flip the water inlet cover open.

Caution: The water may be hot.

•Carefully turn the iron upside down and empty the water into the sink or basin.

•Set the temperature.

•Wait till the thermostat light goes out, then start ironing

VERTICAL STEAMING:

•Remove wrinkles from hanging clothes, hanging curtains, and

furnishing fabrics.

•Check that there’s adequate ventilation behind the fabric,

otherwise moisture may build up, causing mildew.

•Check that there’s nothing behind the fabric that may be

damaged by the steam.

•Check that pockets, turn-ups, and cuffs are empty.

•Check that there’s water in the reservoir.

•Turn the temperature control to max opposite the notch.

•Wait until the thermostat light goes out.

•Hold the iron close to (but not touching) the fabric.

•Press the button (you’re using the “shot of steam” function vertically).

•You may have to press it 2 or 3 times to pump water through the system.

•Leave 4 seconds between shots, to let the temperature build up.

AFTER USE:

•Unplug the iron.

•Lift the bottom of the water inlet cover to open it.

•Hold the iron over a sink, turn it upside down, and drain

the water from the reservoir.

Caution: The water may be hot

•Leave it to cool down completely.

•When it’s cold, wipe off any moisture, and close the water inlet cover.

•Store the iron on its heel, to avoid corrosion and damage to the soleplate.

SELF CLEAN:

•To prevent scale building up, use the self clean function regularly, at least

monthly in normal water areas, more often in hard water areas.

•You’ll need a basin or a large bowl to catch the water

coming out of the soleplate.

•Fill the reservoir to the max mark.

•Turn the temperature control to max, move the steam
