BEFORE USE
Please read the instructions for use and the Important Safeguards carefully.
It is normal for a small amount of smoke to be produced the first time the iron is used. This will quickly disappear.

To avoid damage to clothes from dust or dirt that may collect in the iron, we recom- mend that for the first use or after the iron has been stored for some time that you first iron an old cloth, testing both the steam and burst of steam feature.
Set the temperature control dial according to the type of fabric you are ironing. Check the fabric's label for appropriate setting.
●synthetics (low temperature)
●● silk, wool (medium temperature)
●●●cotton, linen (high temperature)
Start at low temperature and graduate to high temperature. For delicate fabrics we recommend carrying out a test on an unobstrusive part of the garment (inner seam).
