OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE FIRST USE
Remove any protective films or stickers from the soleplate and the Iron’s body. Wipe
the soleplate with a dry soft cloth. Unwind and straighten the power cord. Fill the
iron as described in the section “How to Fill the Water Tank”. Connect the appliance
to a suitable mains power supply outlet. Turn the Temperature Dial to the MAX
position; the pilot light will glow to indicate that the iron is heating up. Once the pilot
light goes off, then the required temperature is reached. Move the steam knob to the
ON position - steam starts to come out from the vents on the soleplate. Begin first
time ironing with an old towel. When the water tank is empty and there is no more
steam that can be produced; the preparation work is completed. The iron is now
ready for proper use.
Note: It is normal for small amount of smoke to be produced the first time you use
the iron, this will quickly disappear. When using the steam function for the first time,
do not direct the steam towards the laundry, as there could be debris from the steam
vents.
HINTS AND TIPS FOR IRONING
1. Sort the articles to be ironed according to the type of fabric. This will minimize the
frequency of temperature adjustment for different garments.
2. Start ironing the fabrics requiring the lowest temperature and progress to the
higher ones because the iron heats up quicker than it cools down.
3. “Test iron” a small area on the backside or inside of the garment if you are unsure
about the type of fabric. Start with a low temperature and increase gradually.
4. Wait for about three (3) minutes before ironing heat sensitive fabrics. ‘Temperature
adjustment’ will need a certain time to reach the required level no matter if it is higher
or lower.
5. Delicate fabrics such as silk, wool, velour, etc. are best ironed with an ironing cloth
to prevent shine marks.
6. You may need to press the steam button a few times to activate the steam burst
function.
7. Always keep the soleplate smooth – avoid contact with sharp, hard, metal objects.

HOW TO FILL THE WATER TANK
1. Disconnect the appliance from main power supply outlet.
2. Ensure that the temperature dial and steam knob are in the “MIN” and “OFF” positions.
3. Open the water inlet cover.
4. Place the iron on its heel rest and tilt forward approximately at a 45 degree angle.
5. Fill water through the water-filling inlet hole up to the MAX level mark indicated on the
side of the iron/ water tank. Never fill above this mark.
6. Close the water inlet cover and wipe off any spillages on Iron.
Note: For the best result, it is advisable to use de-mineralized water or distilled water. Do
not use chemically de-scaled water or any other liquids.
WATER SPRAY FUNCTION
This function can be used at any time and it does not affect other functions. Press the spray
button to spray water on clothes, as often as required.
NOTE: When using the water spray function, ensure that there is enough water in the water
tank. You may have to pump the spray button several times during first use in order to start
the spraying function.
DRY IRONING
This function irons without the use of steam.
1. Connect the iron with a suitable mains power supply outlet.
2. Set the steam knob to position “0”/ “no steam”/ “OFF”.
3. Turn the temperature dial to the correct ironing temperature according to the
recommendation of the garment label.
4. The pilot light will glow to indicate that the iron is heating up.
5. When the required temperature is reached, the pilot light goes off. The iron is ready to
use.
6. After use, turn the temperature dial to the “0”/ “OFF”/ “MIN” position to switch off.
7. Disconnect the iron from mains power supply outlet.
8. Follow cleaning and maintenance instructions.
STEAM IRONING
This function can only be used at a higher ironing temperature – moderate or max position.
1. Fill the iron as described in "How to Fill the Water Tank".
2. Connect the iron to a suitable mains power supply outlet.
3. Turn the temperature dial to the MAX position.
4. The pilot light will glow to indicate that the iron is heating up.
5. The pilot light will go off when the required temperature is reached. During ironing, the
pilot light on the iron automatically switches on/off as the thermostat maintains the set
temperature (you may continue ironing during this process).
6. The iron is ready for use.
Caution: Synthetic fabric, Nylon, Synthetic Silk and Silk cannot be steam
ironed as it will damage the finish of the fabric.
1. After use, turn the temperature dial to the “0”/ “OFF”/ “MIN” position - the
iron is now switched off.
2. Disconnect the iron from mains power supply outlet.
3. Follow the cleaning and maintenance instructions.
Note: This iron has an anti-drip feature: if you are ironing garments for long period of
time, the soleplate temperature may decrease. The anti-drip function will ensure that
water does not leak from the soleplate during this time.
BURST OF STEAM
This function works well for tough wrinkles and heavy fabrics. By pressing the steam
button, an intense burst of steam is emitted from the soleplate. This can be very
useful when removing stubborn creases. This function can be used once the iron
has reached maximum temperature. For optimal results, there should be a five (5)
second interval between presses of the steam button. To prevent leaking water from
the soleplate, do not press the steam button continuously for more than three (3)
seconds. Allow at least a one (1) minute interval before press the steam button
again. Stubborn creases should be removed within three (3) steam button presses.
BURST OF STEAM IN VERTICAL POSITION
Burst of steam can also be applied when holding the iron
in a vertical position. This function is useful for removing
wrinkles on garments in hanging position, hanging
curtains, or other hanging fabrics.
Note: It may be necessary to press the burst of steam button few times to start this
function. During the use of ‘Burst of Steam’, stop ironing when the pilot light turns on
and then start ironing again only after the pilot light has turned off.
