IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using any electrical appliance, basic safety precautions should always be followed

including the following:

2. Always ensure that the voltage on the rating label corresponds to the mains

voltage in your home.

3. Incorrect operation and improper use can damage the appliance and cause injury

to the user.

4. The appliance is intended for household use only. Commercial use invalids the

warranty and the supplier can not be held responsible for injury or damage

caused when using the appliance for any other purpose than that intended.

5. Avoid any contact with moving parts.

6. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with

reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and

is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or a qualified person in

order to avoid an electrical hazard.

PARTS DIAGRAM

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

It is normal for a small amount of smoke to be seen the first time the iron is used,

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.

FILLING WITH WATER

We recommend the use of distilled or kettle water.

Make sure that both the Steam Control turning Knob and Temperature Control

Dial are in the “OFF” position.

Hold the iron upright so that the water-filling inlet is in a horizontal position.

Fill with water through Water Filling Inlet until the water reaches the “MAX” mark

indicated on the side of the iron, and never fill above this mark.

SETTING TEMPERATURE

Follow the ironing instructions on the garment label. If there is no instruction but you do

know the kind of fabric, please consult the following table.

Note: If the fabric consists of various kinds of fabrics, always select the temperature

required by the most delicate fabrics.

Fabric

Temperature control

Temperature requirement

Synthetic

●

Low temperature

Silk, wool

●●

Medium temperature

Cotton, linen

●●●

High temperature

STEAM IRONING

Place the iron in a vertical position and set the temperature control dial to the

minimum/lowest heat setting.

Insert the plug into the socket, and then turn the temperature control dial to the

“high heat” marking. The pilot light will come on, indicating that the iron is heating

up.

When the pilot light turns off, the set temperature has been reached and the iron

is ready to use.

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).

Turn the steam control turning knob to the required position.

Steam is produced as soon as the iron is held horizontally.

SPRAYING

Press the spray button to spray water on clothes, as often as required.

Please Note: When using the water spray function, ensure that there is enough water in

the water tank, and you may have to pump the spray button several times at first in order

to start the spraying function.

BURST OR VERTICAL STEAM IRONING

Press the burst of Steam button to generate a powerful burst of steam that can

penetrate the fabrics and smooth the most difficult and tough creases. Wait for a

few seconds before pressing again.

By pressing the Burst of Steam Button you can also iron vertically (e.g. curtains)

Please Note: The burst steam function can only be used at high temperature. Stop the

emission when the pilot light turns on, and then start ironing again only after the pilot

light has turned off.

DRY IRONING

For ironing without steam, follow the instruction in section “steam ironing”, however, the

steam control turning knob should remain in position “O” (no steam).

FABRIC & TEMPERATURE INDICATOR

Use the Electronic Temperature Control to select the desired fabric setting. The lights in

the water tank will light up, at the same time lights will start to flash; they will stop

flashing when the iron reaches the selected temperature.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

This appliance is for household use only and is not user-serviceable.

Do not open or change any parts by yourself. Please refer to a qualified electrical

service department or return to the supplier if servicing is necessary.

Always remember to unplug the unit from the electrical outlet when not in use

and before cleaning. Ensure that the speed control is set to “0”.

It is much easier to clean the accessories directly after they have been used.

Wash them in warm, soapy water, rinse and dry well.

The body of the appliance and the stand should be cleaned with a damp cloth.

Do not let water enter the appliance or the stand.

Do not use bleach or other abrasive substance or solvents to clean your

appliance as it can be damaging to the finish.

Do not immerse the appliance in water or any other liquid, or hold it under a

running tap to clean.

To remove stubborn spots/marks, wipe the surfaces with a cloth slightly

dampened in soapy water or mild non-abrasive cleaner. Rinse and dry a clean,

dry, soft cloth.

After using, lift the iron with the filling hole downwards to empty the remaining

water from the Water tank.

Insert the plug into the socket, and set the Temperature Control Dial to “MAX” for

1-2 minutes to evaporate the remaining water, and then unplug the iron and let it

cool down before storing it.

SELF-CLEANING

The iron needs to be self-cleaned every 10-15 days:

Push the steam control turning knob (C) to “O” position.

Set the temperature control dial (I) in “MAX” position and plug the power plug in

until the pilot light (G) lights up.

Unplug the power plug, and hold the iron over a sink or basin immediately.

Hold the self-cleaning button (L), the water will drip down from the steam spray

holes in the soleplate.

After the water tank is empty and no more water drip down, put the iron on a

shelf until it is dry.
