‘MAX’ steam

Variable steam

Fill the iron with water as described in ‘Filling’, page 4, and insert the plug into the electrical socket.

The steam output can be varied from low to high by turning the variable steam control D. When using the iron at the bottom of the steam range, the steam output should be adjusted to the low setting.

The steam facility should only be used on garments which are suitable for ironing at 2, 3-dot and MAX setting.

Shot of steam E

Press the shot of steam button ¤ to obtain a burst of extra steam for ironing out creases in heavy material such as denim etc.

The shot of steam can be used whilst dry ironing, providing there is water in the tank, and the temperature control is set within the steam range.

Do not use shot of steam at temperatures below the steam range shown on the control dial.

Note: For optimum steam quality, do not operate the shot more than three times in succession.

Vertical steam

Hold the iron in a vertical position between 1cm and 2cm away from the item F. Press the shot of steam button ¤, this will create vertical steam. This feature is especially useful for removing creases from hanging clothes, curtains, wall hangings, etc.

Note; For optimum steam quality, do not operate the shot more than three times in succession.

No drip system

Your iron is fitted with a no drip system which is designed to prevent water escaping from the soleplate ﬂ 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.

Life long anti-scale system

The life long anti-scale system reduces scale deposits and helps prolong the life of the iron.

Self cleaning G

Your iron has a built in cleaning system designed to keep the water valve, steam chamber and steam vents clear of lint and loose mineral deposits.
