Instructions for Use
Suggestions before using the appliance for the first time:
Some parts of the iron have been lightly greased and thus the iron may produce a little smoke when plugged in for the first time. This will stop after a short period of time.
-Before putting into use for the first time, remove the plastic cover from the base and clean the base with a soft cloth.
-Keep the base smooth: do not touch it off metal objects (buttons, zips,…)
-Pure wool fabrics (100%) can be ironed with the iron set to steam. Preferably chose a high steam position and use a dry ironing cloth.
Temperature setting:
-Always check each garment’s ironing instructions.
-If a garment does not have any ironing instructions, see the fabric classification below.
-If the garment has several different types of fibre, select the lowest temperature setting.
-Classify the number of garments by ironing temperature. The iron heats up faster than it cools down so we recommend you start your ironing with those garments that require lower temperatures and then gradually increase the setting.
-Connect the appliance to the mains. The pilot light will come on. Turn the temperature gauge to the desired temperature.
*Setting for nylon and acetate
**Setting for wool or silk
***Setting for cotton or linen
The pilot turns off when the desired temperature is reached.
How to fill the water deposit:
-Unplug the appliance.
-Fill the water deposit through the filling hole (Fig. 1).
-If your tap water is hard, use distilled water only.
- Throw out any excess water after use, once the iron has been unplugged.
