OPERATION
filling the iron with water
noTE: This iron has been designed to work with ordinary tap water; however, if you
live in an area with hard water, we recommend the use of distilled water. Chemically
softened water (e.g. from household water softeners) is not recommended and may
cause the iron to leak or spit.
