HOW TO USE YOUR IRON

IRONING TEMPERATURE

· Always check first to see whether a label with ironing instructions is attached to the article

to be ironed. Follow these instructions in all cases.

· If ironing instructions are missing but you do know the kind of fabric, then the table below

may help you.

· Sort the laundry out first: wool with wool, cotton with cotton, etc. Start ironing the fabrics

requiring the lowest temperature and progress to the higher ones because the iron heats
up quicker than it cools down.

· If the fabric consists of various kinds of fibres (e.g. cotton with polyester) you must always

select the lowest ironing temperature of the composition of those fibres.

FILLING WITH WATER

· This iron can be used with normal tap water.

· If the water in your area is particularly hard, it is advisable to use distilled or

demineralized water to prevent the scale forming on the critical point of the iron.

· Do not use chemically de-scaled water.

· Ensure that the iron is disconnected from the power supply before filling.

· Turn the variable steam control to MIN position.

· Open the water filling outlet and fill water through the water-filling aperture.

· Close the water filling outlet and ensure that it is secured firmly.

· Do not fill higher than indication MAX of the water tank, in order to avoid spilling out of

water.

· Do not fill with any thing but water, if you have to refill while ironing, remove the mains

plug from the wall socket before filling.

· Pour any remaining water out after use.

SETTING THE TEMPERATURE

· Insert the plug in the wall socket and stand the iron upright.

· Slide the temperature control dial to the correct temperature as indicated in the ironing

instructions or in the label.

· The correct temperature will be reached when the indication light has gone. The

indication light will be on and off from time to time indicating that the selected
temperature is being maintained.

SPRAYING

· At any temperature by pressing on the spray button a couple of times, the laundry can be

damped down.

· If the spray is being using for the first time or if the iron has been standing for some time,

you may need to press the spray button a few times before the spray works correctly.
