following proportions : 50% tap water, 50% demineralized water.

Warning !
Prior to first use of your iron using steam on fabric, we recommend that you turn it
on for a few seconds in the horizontal position, and press the Burst of Steam button
several times.
During the first few uses, the iron may give off an odor and smoke; both are harmless.
This will not affect the use of the iron and will quickly disappear.
