SPRAYING
The spray mist can be used for both dry and steam ironing at any temperature setting.
Press the spray button to release a mist of water through the spray nozzle and dampen
the fabric as required.
NOTE:
Before using the spray function ensure that the water tank is at least ¼ full. If
the tank has run dry, refill with distilled water as recommended in the Filling the iron
with water instructions. It may be necessary to press the spray button a few times to
re-prime the pump before mist appears.
STEAM IRONING
1. Fill with distilled water as recommended in the Filling the iron with water
instructions.
2. Set the temperature dial setting to ‘MAX’ and wait until the appliance heats up
and temperature indicator light goes out.
3. Set the steam control switch to desired position. Increase the steam output by
pushing the steam selector to the left and decrease steam by moving it to the
right towards ‘0’.
NOTE:
Steaming is generally not recommended for synthetic fabrics such as nylon
and polyester. Always follow the garment manufacturer’s instructions.
USING THE SHOT OF STEAM
The shot of steam feature can be used for both dry and steam ironing at high
temperatures. The shot of steam is particularly efficient in smoothing out stubborn
creases on heavy fabrics.
1. Fill with distilled water as recommended in the Filling the iron with water
instructions.
2. Set the temperature dial above the two dot (
) setting and wait until the
appliance heats up and the temperature indicator light goes out.
3. Press the shot of steam button to release a powerful shot of steam from the
soleplate.
DANGER
Ejected steam is extremely hot and therefore should be avoided. Never
direct the steam towards yourself or other people as this may cause burns or scalding.
NOTE:
To prevent water droplets appearing from the soleplate do not press the shot
of steam button continuously for more than 5 seconds. Keep a brief interval between
shots for optimal results.
NOTE:
The shot of steam can also be applied when the iron is in an upright position.
This ‘vertical steam’ feature is ideal for removing creases on curtains, hanging suits
etc.
ANTI-DRIP SYSTEM
Your iron is equipped with an anti-drip system which is designed to prevent water
from escaping through the soleplate when using lower iron temperatures, thus helping
to avoid water marks on your garments.
