No drip system

Your iron is fitted with a no drip system

which is designed to prevent water escaping from the soleplate when the iron is too cold.

During use, the no drip system may emit a loud click, particularly during heat-up or whilst cooling down. This is perfectly normal and indicates that the system is functioning correctly.

Anti-scale system

(certain models only)

The anti-scale cartridge is designed to reduce the build-up of limescale which occurs during steam ironing, this will prolong the working life of your iron. However, please note that the anti-scale cartridge will not completely stop the natural process of limescale build-up.

•WARNING: when not in use, your iron should never be placed flat and left on an ironing board.

•To prevent damage to the textile being ironed, follow the temperature guide carefully. (Test the inside of the hem of the garment).

•When ironing is complete, remove the plug from the socket, empty any remaining water from the tank, and allow to cool before storage.

•If you drop or severely knock your iron this could cause internal damage even if the outside appears alright. Have it checked by a qualified electrician.

•It is recommended that you use up one beaker of water by operating your iron’s steam and shot of steam functions before ironing any clothes as some dripping may occur while your irons steam system is activated.

Electrical requirements

Check that the voltage on the rating plate of your appliance corresponds with your house electricity supply which must be A.C. (Alternating current).

If the socket outlets in your home are not suitable for the plug supplied with this appliance the plug should be removed and the appropriate one fitted.

WARNING : The plug removed from the mains lead, if severed, must be destroyed as a plug with a bared flexible cord is hazardous if engaged into a live socket outlet.

Should the fuse in the 13 amp plug require changing a 13 amp BS1362 fuse must be fitted.

WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.

you will notice that there is no anti-scale sachet present in the anti-scale cartridge. To keep the granules in optimum working condition they are stored in an air-tight container located in the packaging of your iron. To activate the anti-scale system you must place the anti-scale cartridge with sachet, as described below.

Refilling intervals

How often you need to refill your anti- scale cartridge depends on how often you use your iron with its steam functions and how ‘hard’ your water supply is. Water hardness varies greatly from one area to another. For advice on the relative hardness of your water, contact your local water supplier.

If, on average you spend 2 hours per week ironing, then we suggest you refill your anti-scale cartridge as shown in the table. If you iron more or less frequently then you should alter the interval between refills accordingly.
