Operating Instructions
continued
Stand the iron on its heel and turn the
Temperature Control to MIN.
Plug the power cord into a 230V or 240V
power outlet and switch on. The Power
Indicator light will illuminate while the iron
is plugged into an outlet and switched on.
NOTE:
for KI480 only, the Power
Indicator light will remain on even
if Auto Off has been activated.
Select the temperature setting required
by rotating the Temperature Control dial
so that the desired setting is aligned with
the Temperature Indicator.
Your Kambrook iron is now ready for use.
CAuTION:
The iron
incorporates a thermal
safety fuse to protect the
iron from over-heating.
However the iron should
not be left unattended
while it is connected to
the power outlet. Special
care should always be
taken when there are
children in the home/
vicinity of the iron.
Steam Ironing
When filling the iron with water, ensure
that the iron is unplugged. Set the
Steam Control to the MIN position and
holding the iron at an angle, use the
water cup supplied to fill the water tank.
Never exceed the maximum water level
as indicated (MAX) on the side of the
water tank.
Tap water can be used in your
Kambrook SpeedSteam Iron unless
it is particularly hard, in which case
it is recommended that distilled or
demineralised water be used.
To Operate the Steam Control
As per the indications on the
Temperature Control and in Table A (see
section ‘Setting the Temperature’) steam
ironing is only possible at higher ironing
temperatures, indicated with Cotton/
Linen on the Temperature Control.
Plug the power into a 230V or 240V
power outlet and switch the power on.
The Power Indicator light will illuminate
while the iron is plugged into an outlet
and switched on.
NOTE:
for KI480 only, the Power
Indicator light will remain on even
if Auto Off has been activated.
Set the Temperature Control to the
required position within the steam range.
Set the Steam Control (on top of the
handle) to the required setting.
Your Kambrook iron is now ready for use.
IMpORTANT:
If the iron is
set to a low temperature
on the Temperature
Control (i.e. synthetic
or silk) and also on any
of the steam control
settings, there may
be leakage from the
soleplate. This is due to
the iron temperature not
being high enough to
vaporise the water and
create steam.
Therefore, ensure that
the steam control is
always set to correspond
with the setting on the
temperature control as
seen in Table A
(see section ‘Setting
the Temperature’).
