FILLING

You may use the iron with tap-water, but if you live in a hard water area, you should use distilled 

water (not chemically descaled or softened water).
If you buy distilled water, check that it’s marketed as suitable for use in irons.

1. 

Unplug the iron.

2.  Open the water inlet cover.
3.  Hold the iron with the soleplate down.
4. 

Pour slowly, to let the air in the reservoir escape, otherwise you’ll cause an air lock and the 
water will overflow.

5.  Don’t fill past 

max

, or water will escape in use.

6.  Wipe up any spillage.

SWITCH ON

1. 

Sit the iron on its heel.

2.  Put the plug into the power socket (switch the socket on, if it’s switchable). The iron will 

beep and the light in the handle will come on yellow, to show it’s in standby mode.

3.  Press and release the temperature button to select the temperature you want.

4.  The colour of the temperature light depends on the setting. The colours are:
