IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS:

When using your iron, basic safety precautions should always be followed:

Make sure the voltage used corresponds with that indicated on the rating label.

Use the iron only as described in this instruc- tion manual.

Close supervision is necessary when any appli- ance is used near children. Do not leave iron unat- tended while plugged in or on an ironing board. Burns can occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water or steam.

This appliance is not intended for use by per- sons (including children) with reduced physi- cal, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.”

The iron should never be left unattended while it is connected to the wall socket.

Unplug the iron from the wall socket before:

1)Cleaning

2)Filling with water or emptying the water tank

3)Immediately after use

Never operate the iron with a damaged power cord or plug, or if it is damaged in any way. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not disas- semble the iron. Take it to your nearest ap- proved service centre for repair.

Do not let the power cord touch hot surfaces.

To protect against electric shock, do not im- merse the iron in water or any other liquid.

The iron must be used and rested on a stable surface.

Do not use the iron if there are visible signs of damage or if it is leaking.

BEFORE FIRST USE:

It is normal for a small amount of smoke to be released on first use, this will quickly disap- pear.

When using the steam function for the first time, do not direct the steam towards the laundry, as there could be debris from the steam vents.

Filling with water:

Make sure that both the variable steam con- trol and temperature control dial are in the “OFF” position.

Hold the iron upright so that the water-filling inlet is in a horizontal position.

Pour water through the water filling inlet until the water reaches the “MAX” mark indicated on the side of the iron, and never fill above this mark.

Setting the temperature:

Follow the ironing instructions on the garment la- bel. If there are no instructions but you do know the kind of fabric, please consult the table below.

Note: If the fabric consists of various kinds of fab- rics, always select the temperature required by the most delicate fabric.

Steam ironing:

Place the iron in a vertical position and set the temperature control dial to the “MIN“ heat set- ting.

Insert the plug into the wall socket, and then turn the temperature control dial to the “MAX” heat setting. The pilot light will illuminate, indi- cating that the iron is heating up.

When the pilot light switches off, the selected temperature has been reached and the iron is ready to use.

During ironing, the pilot light will switch on/off automatically as the thermostat maintains the selected temperature.

Turn the variable steam control to the desired position.
