Disposal of Old Electrical Appliances
The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires
that old household electrical appliances must not be disposed of in normal unsorted municipal waste.
Old appliances must be collected separately in order to optimize the recovery and recycling of the
materials they contain and reduce the impact on human health and the environment. The crossed out
“wheeled bin” symbol on the product reminds you of your obligation, that when you dispose of the
appliance it must be separately collected. Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for
information concerning the correct disposal of their old appliance.
The iron must be earthed. Fit a 13A BS1362 fuse in a 13A BS1363 plug. Fit the green/yellow wire to
E, the blue wire to N and the brown wire to L. Fit the cord grip. If in doubt, call an electrician. Don’t use
a non-rewireable plug unless the fuse cover is fitted. If you remove the plug, dispose of it.
CHOICE OF WATER
•
This iron can be used with normal tap water.
•
If the water in your area is particularly hard, it is advised that you use distilled or de-mineralized water.
•
Do not use chemically descaled water or any other liquids for refilling.
HOW TO FILL WITH WATER

Unplug the mains lead from the power supply before filling the water tank.

SETTING THE TEMPERATURE
•
Insert the plug in the power socket and stand the iron upright.
