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.

Press the button 3 or 4 times, to check it out.

ANTI-DRIP FUNCTION

The anti-drip function uses a separate thermostat, to shut off the flow of water if the

temperature is not high enough to produce steam.

This means that in addition to the click of the normal thermostat, which coincides with

the thermostat light going on and off, you’ll hear the anti-drip thermostat clicking, but you

won’t see anything happening. Do not worry about it –just keep on ironing.

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 .

Filling (#2)

The iron may be used with tap-water, but if you live in a

hard water area, you should use distilled water (not

chemically descaled 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 allow the air in the reservoir to escape, otherwise you’ll 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

Turn the temperature control to ●.

Place the iron on its heel.

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

Turn the temperature control to bring the setting you want next to the mark (#3).

The thermostat light will come on.

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.

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

label.

Reducing 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.

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

Move the steam control to the setting you want, = no steam, = high steam

(#3).

Wait until the thermostat light goes out and then start ironing.

Spray

Please Note: 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 .

Check that there’s water in the reservoir.

empty the reservoir first, to avoid spontaneous bursts of

steam.

Move the steam control to .

Wait till the thermostat light goes out, then start ironing.

Check that there’s adequate ventilation behind the fabric, otherwise moisture

may build up, causing mildew.

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

Check that there’s water in the reservoir.

Turn the temperature control to max, move the steam control

to .

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

After use

Turn the temperature control to ●, turn the steam control to .

Unplug the iron.

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

water from the reservoir.

Caution: The water may be hot.

Place the iron on its heel.

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.

coming out of the soleplate.

over the basin or bowl.

Caution: Keep clear of the escaping water and steam

Water and steam will wash scale and dust through the soleplate, and into the

sink.

When the reservoir is empty, release the self clean button.

Unplug the iron, and place it on its heel to cool.

When it’s cold, wipe off any moisture.

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

Anti-scale

The anti-scale agent incorporated in the iron helps prevent the build-up of scale.

Don’t use a descaling solution, or you’ll destroy the anti-scale agent.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Unplug the iron when not in use, before moving and before cleaning. Let it cool

down fully before cleaning and storing away.
