Ceramic Iron
When pouring away the water, gently shake the iron to remove
any loose particles from the tank.
CARE ANd CLEANING
Unplug the iron from the mains and allow it to cool down
fully.
Cleaning:
To remove starch or other deposits from the
soleplate, apply a small amount of mild cleaner to a damp
cloth, forming a paste on the cloth. Gently rub the soleplate,
then wipe with a moist cloth. The body of the iron may now be
cleaned with a barely damp cloth and then dried thoroughly.
Do not wet the appliance body, cord or mains plug.
CAUTION: Never use scouring pads, abrasives or harsh cleaners
on the iron body or the soleplate.
Self Cleaning:
This function removes the scales and minerals
built up in the Steam Chamber. The iron will remain in the best
condition if this function is performed at least once a month or
more regularly depending on the hardness of the water.
Fill the water tank to the maximum level mark.
•
Stand the Iron upright on its stand.
•
Set the steam control to minimum.
•
Turn the Temperature Dial to its maximum setting.
•
Plug the iron in and switch on.

Now allow the pilot light to come on and go off a second
time.
Vertical Shot of Steam:
Warning: DO NOT allow anyone to come near you during this
process. NEVER allow steam to get anywhere near your body
or clothing or apply steam to clothes or fabrics that are being
worn by human or pets. DANGER OF SCALDING.

OVERREACH or operate the iron while standing on a ladder etc.
Turn the Temperature Dial to minimum.

Steam and boiling hot water will drain from the holes on the
soleplate washing away the scales and minerals that have
built up inside the Steam Chamber. Keep skin/body away from
the hot water - DANGER OF SCALDING!
Gently shake the iron until the water tank is empty.
•
When Self-Cleaning is complete, release the Self Clean
•
button and set the iron back on its heel rest to cool
down.

Storage: When not in use the iron should be securely stored
out of the reach of children. Store the iron on its heel with the
cord loosely looped around the body. Do NOT store the iron on
its soleplate or you may damage the finish.

Note: Some parts have been lightly greased and the iron might
smoke slightly when switched on for the first time. After a
short while, this will cease. We recommend passing the iron
over a clean cotton cloth before using it for the first time.
The pilot light will turn ‘OFF’ when the indicated setting
reaches the correct temperature. The iron is now ready for use.
During use the indicator will come on and off as the thermostat
maintains the iron at the correct temperature setting.
Steam Ironing:
Steam Ironing should be carried out at the highest settings on
the temperature dial.
The quantity of steam is regulated by the Steam control.
After you have finished ironing:
Set the Steam control to minimum.
•
Switch the iron off at the mains and unplug.
•
Stand the iron on its heel and let the iron cool down
•
fully.
When the iron is cool:
Tesco Stores Ltd
Delamare Road, Cheshunt, Herts, EN8 9SL
Move the Steam control to a
suitable position depending on
the quantity of steam required
and the ironing temperature.
Warning: the iron gives off
steam continuously only if you
hold the iron horizontally. You
can stop the continuous steam
by placing the iron in a vertical position or by moving the
Steam control to O (minimum).
Shot of Steam Button:
This feature may be used during steam or dry ironing but only
when the iron is at highest settings.
Press the Shot of Steam
•
button to release a surge
of steam. You may need to
press the button a few times
to prime the system.
Wait a few seconds for the
•
steam to penetrate the fabric
before pressing the button
again.
Use no more than 3 bursts at any one time.
Excessive use of this feature will cause the iron to cool, and the
pilot light will illuminate. If this happens, wait for the pilot
light to go out before using the feature again.
Set the iron to its highest
•
temperature and wait for the
pilot light to go out.
Set the iron vertical. Hold
•
the iron away from you and
15 – 30 centimetres from the
garment.
Press the Shot of Steam Button
•
once. Steam will penetrate
into the garment removing
the wrinkles.
For stubborn wrinkles: set the iron back on its stand and wait a
few seconds. Repeat the procedure once more. Most wrinkles
can be removed within three presses.
Spray Button:
Press the spray button to
•
spray water on the material. It
may be used for steam or dry
ironing.
Note: To avoid staining, do not use
the spray on silk or synthetics, and
be careful when you iron delicate
fabrics.
Note: For Spray and Shot of Steam functions to operate, the
water tank must be at least one-quarter full. If these features
stop working place the iron on its stand and fill the water
tank.
During Ironing: In between operations always stand the iron
on its heel. NEVER leave the iron face down.
During use, the anti drip system may emit a loud clicking
sound, particularly when the iron heats upor cools down.
This is normal and indicates that the system is functioning
correctly.
Invert the iron, open the
•
filler and pour away the
excess water from the
tank.
