No drip system
Your iron is fitted with a no drip system
which is designed to prevent water escaping
from the soleplate when the iron is too cold.
During use, the no drip system may emit a
loud click, particularly during heat-up or
whilst cooling down. This is perfectly normal
and indicates that the system is functioning
correctly.
Anti-scale system
(certain models only)
The anti-scale cartridge is designed to
reduce the build-up of limescale which
occurs during steam ironing, this will prolong
the working life of your iron. However, please
note that the anti-scale cartridge will not
completely stop the natural process of
limescale build-up.
Using your anti-scale iron for the first time
If you are using your iron for the first time
you will notice that there is no anti-scale
sachet present in the anti-scale cartridge. To
keep the granules in optimum working
condition they are stored in an air-tight
container located in the packaging of your
iron. To activate the anti-scale system you
must place the anti-scale cartridge with
sachet, as described below.
Refilling intervals
How often you need to refill your anti-
scale cartridge depends on how often you
use your iron with its steam functions and
how ‘hard’ your water supply is. Water
hardness varies greatly from one area to
another. For advice on the relative hardness
of your water, contact your local water
supplier.
If, on average you spend 2 hours per
week ironing, then we suggest you refill your
anti-scale cartridge as shown in the table. If
you iron more or less frequently then you
should alter the interval between refills
accordingly.
Replacement anti-scale refills

Filling / Refilling your anti-scale cartridge
1 Empty any remaining
water from the tank, (see

2 Remove the anti-scale
cartridge from the iron by
turning it anti-clockwise
quarter of a turn and
pulling it out.
3 Remove the cartridge lid
as follows, hold the
cartridge upright and
gently squeeze it by the
retaining lugs. Gently pull
off the lid. If you are
refilling, dispose of the
used sachet.
4 Remove the anti-scale
sachet from its packaging.
5 Fit the new sachet into the
cartridge.
6 Replace the lid back on
the cartridge by aligning
the holes with their lugs
and pressing down until it
clicks shut on both sides.
7 Insert the cartridge back in
its hole. Push it in as far as
possible making sure it is
aligned as shown. Turn it
clockwise until the pointer
aligns with the marker on
the iron and it is closed

• WARNING: when not in use, your iron
should never be placed flat and left on
an ironing board.
• To prevent damage to the textile being
ironed, follow the temperature guide
carefully. (Test the inside of the hem of the
garment).
• When ironing is complete, remove the
plug from the socket, empty any
remaining water from the tank, and allow
to cool before storage.
• If you drop or severely knock your iron
this could cause internal damage even if
the outside appears alright. Have it
checked by a qualified electrician.
• It is recommended that you use up one
beaker of water by operating your iron’s
steam and shot of steam functions before
ironing any clothes as some dripping may
occur while your irons steam system is
activated.
Electrical requirements

of your appliance corresponds with your
house electricity supply which must be A.C.
(Alternating current).
If the socket outlets in your home are not
suitable for the plug supplied with this
appliance the plug should be removed and
the appropriate one fitted.
