Operating Instructions
Before First Use
Remove any promotional material or packaging from the iron.
Remove any sticker or protective cover from the soleplate. When operating the
iron for the first time, iron on an old piece of fabric to ensure that the soleplate
and water tank are completely clean.
NOTE: As an important part of our quality control process, your iron has
been individually tested. As a result, you may notice a small amount of
condensation or water droplets on the inside of the water tank. There is
no need for concern.
When the iron is used for the first time, some vapour may emit. After a short while
however, this will cease. The vapour is due to the initial heating of the materials
used in the iron. It is safe and will not harm the performance of the iron.
Setting the Temperature
Before commencing ironing, first sort the items to be ironed according to the
International Textile Care Labelling Code or by the type of fabric. Iron fabrics
that require the lowest temperatures first. Work through to the fabrics requiring
higher temperatures. Both the Temperature Control and most items of laundry
have markings corresponding with this code (see Table A).
