SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

NOTES: 

• 

When using the iron for the first time, test on an old piece of fabric to ensure 
that the soleplate and water tank are completely clean.

• 

The iron may smoke slightly when switched on for the first time. This is normal

and will soon cease.

• 

Thank you for purchasing this user-friendly full function iron. Please read 

these instructions carefully before use.

IRONING

IMPORTANT: Have you read the section “Important Safeguards”?

CHOICE OF WATER

• 

The 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 within the iron. Do not use 
chemically descaled water.

FILLING WITH WATER

• 

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

• 

Turn the steam dial(4)(Fig.2) to “MIN” position.

• 

Open the lid(3). Fill water through the water filling aperture(Fig.3).

• 

Cover the lid.

NOTE: 

• 

Do not fill higher than the “MAX” indicator of the water tank. In order to avoid 
water spilling out.

• 

Fill with clean water only. If you have to refill while ironing, remove the mains 
plug from the wall socket before filling.

• 

Pour out any remaining water after use.
