Dry ironing

Follow steps 1 and 2 above.
3. Select DRY on the steam dial.  

This will cut off the steam flow if there is 
water in the tank.

Using the shot of steam

The shot of steam can be used when dry  
or steam ironing, when the temperature dial 
is set to any temperature within the steam  
band or above the two dot (••) setting.
1. Ensure the tank is at least 

¼

 full of water.

2. Select the desired temperature 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.

Using the spray mist

The spray mist can be used whether dry or 
steam ironing to pre-dampen hard to iron 
fabrics.
1. Ensure the tank is at least 

¼

 full of water.

2. Press the spray button during ironing to 

release a fine mist from the spray nozzle.

The safety auto-off mechanism automatically 
turns the iron off if you forget. 
The iron will automatically shut off if left  
on the heel rest (vertical) for 15 minutes,  
or in the ironing position (horizontal) for 30 
seconds, without being moved.

(See figure 2).

The thermostat and power lights on the 
handle will flash and a warning beep will 
sound to let you know that you have left the 
iron unattended.
Power to the iron's heating element will be 
cut.

Once the iron is moved the power will 
reconnect. Allow the iron to heat until the 
thermostat light goes out, and continue 
ironing as normal.
