Filling & Emptying the Water
Tank
The steam station should never be
operated without water in the water
tank. When the water tank is filled to
the ‘MAX’ level, the water tank holds
1.5L of water. The steam station is
designed to be used with tap water.
NOTE:
The hardness of tap
water can vary in different
regions; water testing kits can
be purchased online or at water
filtration specialists to determine
the hardness of your tap water.
If your tap water is particularly
hard, it is recommended that
distilled or demineralised water
be used with this steam station.
Not doing so can result in the
need to replace the anti-scale
cartridge more often.
1.
Place the steam station on a
stable, level surface and flip open
the water tank cap.
2.
Fill the water tank with water using
the water filling cup provided.
(See Fig. 1). Do not fill past the
indicated MAX line marking on
the water tank.

3.
Once filled, push the water tank
cap down until it clicks into place.
Always close the cap before
operating the steam station.
4.
When ironing is complete, turn
the steam station off and unplug
from the power outlet. Allow the
steam station to fully cool before
emptying the water tank.
5.
Ensure the iron is correctly locked
on the steam iron rest before
moving. Open the water cap and
tip the water into a sink or drain.
Close the cap.
IMPORTANT:
Do not
use tumble dryer
condensate, scented
water, softened water
refrigerator condensate,
battery water, air
conditioner condensate,
or rainwater as they
contain organic waste
or mineral components
that are concentrated
by heat and cause
spitting, brown staining
or premature aging of
your appliance.
WARNING:
As the steam
produced is very hot,
never iron or steam
iron a garment while it
is being worn; always
hang the garment on a
hanger during vertical
steam ironing.
WARNING:
The steam
station should not be left
switched on deliberately
while unattended. The
steam station should
always be switched
off at the power outlet
and unplugged when
not in use or being left
unattended.
Using Your Steam Station
1.
Before operating, ensure that
there is enough water in the
water tank and that the anti-scale
cartridge is fitted. Lock the steam
iron onto the steam iron rest.
2.
Place the steam station on a flat,
level surface so that the iron is
easily accessible to the fabric
being ironed.
NOTE:
Only place the steam
station on an ironing board if
the board is equipped with an
iron rest that will keep the steam
station in a stable and upright
position.
3.
Insert the power plug into a 230V
or 240V power outlet. Switch the
power on at the power outlet.
4.
Press the On/Off button to start
heating. The On/Off button will
illuminate and the
symbol will
slowly flash while the steam station
is heating.
5.
If there is insufficient water in
the water tank, the
light will
illuminate to indicate that the
water tank needs to be filled. This
light will turn off once the water
tank is filled.
6.
Allow the steam station to heat
for approximately 2 minutes, or
until the
light stops flashing. The
steam station is now ready to use.
