Important
When the appliance is used for the first time, a harmless odour and smoke may be
given off. This has no effect on the use of the appliance and will disappear quickly.
Before using your iron with the steam function for the first time, we recommend
that you operate it in a horizontal position for a few moments, away from your linen,
i.e. press several times on the Burst of Steam button
.

2. Open the cover of the water tank filler hole (

),
place the iron on a table (not when iron is hot),
as shown in the diagram, and then fill it.
Important
You should not fill the tank beyond the MAX level (iron
standing vertically on the heel).
The water to use in your iron
Your iron has been designed to operate using tap water. However, if your water is
very hard, mix it 50% tap water with 50% distilled water.
Types of water to be avoided
Do not add anything to the contents of the water tank, and do not use pure
demineralised water, water from clothes dryers, scented or softened water, water
from refrigerators, batteries or air conditioners, pure distilled water or rainwater.
These contain organic waste or mineral elements that become concentrated when
heated and cause spitting, brown staining or premature wear to your iron. Never
use additives (perfumed water, starch, perfumed oils…)
