Ironing without steam
If you intend to dry-iron fabrics there is no need to fill the water tank. However, if water is
already in the water tank, you don’t need to empty it.
1. Set the steam control to the off (
0
) position.
2. Plug your iron into the mains supply and switch on.
3. Rotate the temperature control dial until the desired setting is aligned with the dial
pointer.
4. The temperature indicator light will illuminate while your iron is heating up. When the
light goes out, your iron is ready to use.
Steam ironing
During steam ironing, if you do not allow your iron to reach the selected
temperature water may drip from the soleplate.
It is recommended that for harder to iron fabrics such as cotton and linen, steam should
be used when ironing.
When ironing cotton and linen, always select the highest temperature. Steam should
never be used on delicate fabrics like nylons, acrylics and synthetics.
1. Fill your iron with water.
2. Plug your iron into the mains supply and switch on.
3. Set the temperature control dial to the
lll

steam is generated.

goes out your iron is ready to use. The temperature indicator light will turn on and off
during ironing as your iron maintains the correct temperature.

select the desired steam output.

seconds between each press of the steam button.
Press the shot of steam button whenever you have a stubborn crease that needs extra
steam. Steam will burst from the holes in the soleplate of your iron into the fabric.
