nobody can knock it over or get hurt.
• Never put the appliance on or near warm
surfaces or near lames.

Note:
Be careful that the feet of the ironing board
don’t slip on smooth loors while opening/closing
the ironing board.
• Insert the iron cord support in one of the small
holes each side of the ironing board and hang
the steam power cord. The iron cord support
prevents unwanted movement by cord drag of
the garment being ironed as well as the wear of
the steam power cord.
There are two holes one each side at the rear
end of the ironing board so that the cord
support can be positioned for right or left
handed use.
STarT Up
If you are using a steam generator:
• Place the iron/steam generator on the shelf.
If you are using a steam iron:
• Place the iron (soleplate down) on the iron rest
mat which should be positioned at the rear end
of the ironing surface.
• Plug the power supply cord from your iron/
steam generator into the auxillary socket
built-in to the ironing board.
• Plug the power supply cord from your ironing board
into a 13amp wall socket and switch the socket on.
• Switch the equipment on using the power on/off
switch. The power on/off switch acti-vates the
ironing board and the steam generator or steam
iron plugged into the auxillary socket. An integrated
thermostat constantly controls the board heating
temperature. During the heating phase the
equipment may emit noises. This is a normal
phenomenon, which is nothing to worry about.
