With the anti-drip system, you can iron even the
most delicate fabrics.
Always iron delicate fabrics at low temperatures.
The plate may cool down to the point where
drops of boiling water, which can leave marks
or stains, comes out of the plate rather than
steam.Turn the steam selector to the off
position so the anti-drip system activates to
prevent vaporization, helping avoid avoid the
risk of staining.
A special resin filter inside the Water Tank
softens the water and prevents scale build-up
in the plate. The resin filter is permanent and
does not need to be replaced.
NOTE:
Use tap water to fill the Water Tank. In
hard water areas, you can use a mixture of 50%
tap water and 50% distilled or demineralized
water. Do not use chemical additives, scented
substances, or decalcifiers in the water.
If the iron (connected to the base with the power
on) has been left idle for approximately 30 secs.
in the
horizontal
position, heating will shut
off. When this happens, the automatic shut-
off indicator light will blink. Lift the iron to the
vertical
position to deactivate this safety feature
and allow the iron to heat before ironing again.
If the iron (connected to the base with the
power on) is in use for approximately 30 mins.,
a safety feature will activate and the heat will
shut-off. When this happens, the Automatic
Shut-off Indicator Light will blink. Lift the iron
to the horizontal position and then back to the
vertical position to deactivate this safety feature
(which will be indicated by a constant blue
light) and allow the iron to heat to the required
temperature before ironing again.

Features & Tips
1. Ensure that there is enough water in the Water Tank
and then set the iron in the vertical position. Wipe
away any water near the Water Tank Cap.
2. Connect the iron to the base and insert the plug
into a power outlet.
3. Use the Temperature Control Dial
(C)
to select the
desired temperature. To use steam, the temperature
must be set between dot position two and dot
position three. If using the iron while connected to
the base, ensure that the Base Lock Switch
(D)
is in
the locked position. If using the iron cordlessly, first
place the iron vertically on the base and wait for it
to reach the desired temperature before removing it
from the base.
4. Set the Steam Selector to the desired position.
5. When the Temperature Indicator Light
(E)
darkens, you can begin to iron. If the iron is being
cordlessly, you can iron for about 30 secs. after the
Temperature Indictor Light darkens. Then, place the
iron on the base to reheat the iron.
1. Check that the plug is disconnected from
the outlet.
2. Detach and move the iron clear of the base
before filling.
3. Move the Steam Selector
(A)
to .
4. Open the Water Tank Cap
(B)
.
5. Raise the tip of the iron to help the water enter
the opening without overflowing.
6. Slowly pour the water into the tank using the
Water Jug and take care not to fill over the
maximum level (about 370 ml) indicated by
"MAX" on the tank.
7. Close the Water Tank Cap.

Tips for Good Ironing
•
We recommend using the lowest temperatures
with fabrics that have unusual finishes
(sequins, embroidery, transfers etc.).
•
If the fabric is mixed (for example, 40% cotton
60% synthetics), set the thermostat to the
temperature of the fiber requiring the lower
temperature.
•
If you don’t know the composition of the
fabric, determine the suitable temperature
by testing on a hidden corner of the garment.
Start with a low temperature and increase
it gradually until the iron reaches the
ideal temperature.
•
Never iron areas with traces of perspiration
or other marks. The heat of the plate fixes the
stains on the fabric, making them irremovable.
•
To avoid making silk, woolen, or synthetic
garments shiny, iron them inside out.
•
To avoid making velvet garments shiny, iron
in one direction (following the fiber) and do
not press down on the iron.
•
Many fabrics are easier to iron if they are
not completely dry. For example, silk should
always be ironed damp.
