●If you need to refill your steam station during use, we recommend the empty water tank is removed for filling. If filled whilst fitted, always unplug the steam station first.
choosing the right temperature
Follow the clothes label advice. Match the dots on the label to the dots on the temperature control. If there’s no label, here’s a guide on which temperature to choose:
hints
●Start on clothes needing the lowest temperature, then work upwards. (This lowers the risk of burning something because an iron switched from ‘hot’ to ‘cool’ takes time to cool down.)
●For mixed fibres, eg cotton ●●● and polyester ●, use the lowest suitable temperature ●.
●If in doubt, start with a low temperature on a part that won’t be seen (eg a shirt tail).
setting the temperature
Before switching on the steam station, make sure that the lock for continuous steam is in the off position by firmly pressing the lock on the left hand side of the iron. This will ensure that the steam button is released.
1Plug the steam station into the power supply.
2Switch on, the blue light will glow.
3Turn the temperature control to the temperature you want, the light under the control will glow. When the iron reaches the set temperature, the light will go out. (During ironing, this light will go on and off as your iron maintains the right temperature.)
dry ironing
Follow the procedure above for setting the temperature.
Care should be taken not to press the steam button.
steam ironing
1Make sure there is water in the tank. Plug into the power supply and switch on.
2Turn the temperature control to the desired setting. For best results when steaming we recommend that the temperature control should be
set to 
.
It is possible to vary the amount of steam produced. If the iron is set to ● move the variable steam control to the left for minimum steam. If ●● is selected move the variable steam control to the middle and if ●●● is selected move the variable control to the right for maximum steam.
3Wait until the green ready to steam light glows indicating that the correct pressure has been reached. This takes about 3 minutes. Also wait until the temperature control indicator light has gone off.
●During use you may hear a slight humming coming from the steam station. This means that the pump is operating and passing water from the tank to the boiler where the steam is generated for ironing. This will be accompanied by the red low
water indicator light glowing.
4Before starting to iron or if you have not used the steam function for a few minutes or if you have recently cleaned the steam station, hold the iron away from your ironing and press the steam button several times. This will enable any cold water condensed in the pipes etc., to be removed from the steam circuit.
5To produce steam whilst ironing clothes press the steam button. For continuous steam, press the steam button and then press the lock for continuous steam on the right hand side of the iron. To stop continuous steam, press the button on the left hand side.
