SUGGESTIONS BEFORE USING ThE IRON FOR ThE FIRST TIME
1. Certain parts of the iron have been lightly greased; therefore the iron could give off a little
smoke when plugged in for the first time. This will cease after a short time.
2. Before using the iron for the first time, remove the plastic protector from the soleplate (if
present). Clean the soleplate with a soft cloth.
3. Keep the soleplate very smooth. Do not run it over metal objects (such as against the uncovered
ironing board, buttons, zips etc).
4. Pure wool garments (100% wool) can be ironed with the appliance in the steam position. You
should select preferentially a high steam position and use a dry ironing cloth.
