PRIOR TO FIRST USE

To get the best from your new iron, follow the instructions below:

-Ensure that all stickers and labels have been removed from the iron. Some parts of the iron were oiled during manufacture and these will therefore smoke slightly when the iron is first used.

-This is entirely safe and will stop after the iron has been used a few times.

-Always try to protect the soleplate and NEVER run it over metal or similar surfaces, as this will damage it.

USE

-The handle of the iron must be folded out before commencing ironing. Pull the handle carefully until it is in the top position. A click will indicate that the handle is securely locked.

-The handle can be folded down by pressing the release button while pushing the handle down.

STEAM IRONING

-Open the reservoir lid behind the handle to fill the iron with water.

-Fill the reservoir with cold water until the water level reaches the opening.

-Replace the lid.

-Plug the iron in and switch it on.

-Adjust the temperature dial to indicate the material to be ironed:

-Temperature for nylon, acetate and other synthetic fabrics •

-Temperature for wool and cotton ••

-Temperature for linen •••

-Press and release the steam shot button to use the steam shot function. Repeat the procedure as required. If you need to fill up with water during ironing, remember to unplug the iron first.

SPRAY FUNCTION

Press the spray button to dampen the fabric before you start ironing.

DRY IRONING

Use the same procedure as for steam ironing, but do not put any water in the reservoir. Check that the temperature dial is at “Min” before plugging in. Allow the iron to heat up according to the table given below. Test the iron on a small piece of the item to be ironed to make sure you have the right temperature.
