Before use
Remove any protective cover from the soleplate
(3)and the base unit, if any.
Unwind and straighten the power cord (23) and steam supply cord (22).
Textiles and clothes should carry ironing instructions. If not, follow the temperature guide above, but test the temperature by ironing the hem of the garment or similar discreet area first.
It is advised to begin with ‘cool’ fabrics and work up to higher settings. An iron heats up quicker than it cools down so you’ll save time and electricity.
If you turn the temperature dial down from a hot setting to a cooler setting, wait until the iron temperature has stabilised before you continue ironing.
NOTE: Hold the base with both hands when handling and moving the unit, as the water tank is detachable.
