Getting Started
1. Before first use.
Remove all adhesive and gently rub
with a dampened cloth before plugging
in the iron.
We recommend that you rinse the
water tank by operating the steam in a
horizontal position away from your linen
for one minute. When the iron is turned
on for the first time, harmless vapours/
odours may be emitted temporarily.
This will cease quickly.
2. Filling the water tank.
Make sure the iron is unplugged.
Set the variable steam knob (G) to position
“off” (for models ESI710/ESI730) or set the
Temperature selector (K) to position 0 (for
model ESI730). Open the filling aperture
cover. Using the beaker provided, pour
water up to maximum level. Do not exceed
the maximum filling volume as indicated
on the iron. Close the cover until it clicks.
3. Type of water to be used:
This iron has been designed to use normal
tap water. If the tap water in your area is
very hard, you can fill the tank with 50%
tap water and 50% bottled distilled water.
Never use distilled water only. Never put
scented water, vinegar or ironing aids in
the water tank. This may cause brown
spitting and staining.
