Steam ironing
Follow steps 1 to 3 on page 6 under "Using
your iron".

When steam ironing, ensure that the
temperature dial is set to the three dot (•••)
temperature setting, and that the tank is at
least ¼ full of water.
4. Select STEAM on the STEAM/DRY dial.
Using the shot of steam
The shot of steam can be used when dry or
steam ironing, when the temperature dial is
set to the three dot (•••) temperature setting.
1. Ensure the tank is at least ¼ full of water.
2. Select the three dot (•••) temperature
setting and wait until the thermostat light
goes out.
3. Press the shot of steam button several
times with the iron on the soleplate to
prime the pump.
NOTE:
If the tank has run dry, it may be
necessary to re-prime the pump after filling
the iron with water.
After each use
1. Turn the STEAM/DRY dial to DRY.
2. Turn the power off and remove the plug
from the power outlet.
3. Empty any remaining water from the water
tank.
4. Allow the iron to cool before winding the
cord around the soleplate or placing it in
the travel pouch.
Storage
Always store the iron on its heel rest.
NOTE:
Do not store the iron with the soleplate
facing down, or in the carton.
Cleaning
To clean the exterior of your iron, wipe over
with a damp soft cloth and wipe dry.
Caution:
Do not use harsh abrasives, chemical
cleaners or solvents to clean the exterior of
your iron as these will damage the surface.
Cleaning the non-stick soleplate
The non-stick coating reduces sticking of
fabrics and starches to the soleplate. Do not
iron over sharp objects such as buttons, studs
and zippers, as these will scratch the surface.
Wipe the soleplate with a damp soft cloth
after each use. If polyester has burnt to the
soleplate, iron a damp cotton cloth while hot.
Caution:
Do not use scouring pads, abrasives
or harsh cleaners to clean your non-stick
soleplate, as these will scratch and damage
the surface.
To clean the steam holes
To remove build up from the steam holes
which may affect steam performance, use
a cotton wool tip moistened in methylated
spirits.
