Warning!

Before using your iron with the steam function for the first time, we recommend that you operate it in a horizontal position for a few moments, away from your linen, i.e. press the Shot of Steam button a few times.

During the first few uses, a harmless odour and smoke may be given off.
This has no effect on the use of the iron and will disappear quickly.
What water to use ?

Your appliance has been designed to function with untreated tap water. However, it is necessary to operate the Self-Clean function regularly in order to eliminate hard water deposits from the steam chamber.

If your water is very hard (check with your local water authority), it is possible to mix tap water with store-bought distilled or demineralised water in the following proportions : - 50% untreated tap water, - 50% distilled or demineralised water.

Types of water not to use

Heat concentrates the elements contained in water during evaporation.The types of water listed below contain organic waste or mineral elements that can cause spitting, brown staining, or premature wear of the appliance: water from clothes dryers, scented or softened water, water from refrigerators, batteries or air conditioners, pure distilled or demineralised water or rain water should not be used in your Tefal iron. Also do not use boiled, filtered or bottled water.

1- STEAM IRONING

Filling the water tank

-Unplug your iron before filling it.

-Set the steam control to DRY (A).

-Take the iron in one hand and hold it with the point of the soleplate tilted downwards.

-To open the water tank stopper, turn it anticlockwise until the arrow on the stopper points to the “open padlock” symbol (B). It will lift automatically.

-Fill the tank up to the “MAX” line (D).

-Re-close the tank stopper (C).To close the stopper, align the arrow with the “open padlock” symbol then turn it clockwise until the arrow is aligned with the “closed padlock” symbol.

-You can now plug in your iron.

Setting the temperature

-Set the thermostat control (E) referring to the table below.

-The thermostat light comes on. It will go out when the soleplate is hot enough (F).

Setting the steam level

-In order to avoid water dripping from the iron onto the linen:

• Turn off the steam when ironing silk or synthetic fabrics.

• Set it at the minimum position for wool.
