Anti-drip feature

When the temperature of your iron is insufficient to create steam, the supply of water is 

cut off automatically to avoid any drips from the soleplate.

Anti-scale filter

Your iron is fitted with a permanent anti-scale filter. This filter is fixed and cannot be 

removed for cleaning.

The filter is designed to reduce the build-up of limescale inside your iron. Limescale 

occurs during steam ironing due to water hardness.

Water hardness varies from one area to another. The effectiveness of the filter will 

depend on how ‘hard’ your water is.

Safety auto shut-off function 

 ALWAYS disconnect your iron from the mains supply socket after use. NEVER 

leave the iron unattended with the auto shut-off function in operation.

Your iron will shut off if it has not been used for 15 minutes when resting on its heel, or 30 

seconds with the soleplate face down. The STANDBY light will flash indicating that your 

iron is now in auto-shut off mode. To restart your iron, either press the +/- buttons or move 

your iron gently. The iron will revert back to its previous setting.
