ken in during the first use; it is nor-
mal for a small amount of smoke to
be released.
CHOICE OF WATER
• To fill the water tank use regular tap
water. If the water is hard then it is
recommended to mix it with distilled
water at a ratio of 1:1, if the water is
very hard, mix it with distilled water at
a ratio of 1:2 or use only distilled wa-
ter.
Note:
Do not fill the water tank (10) with
scented liquids, vinegar, starch so-
lutions, descaling reagents, chemi-
cal substances etc.
FILLING THE WATER TANK
Make sure that the iron is disconnected
from electrical power before filling it
with water.
• Set the steam release regulator (3) to
the low position of steam vapor OFF.
• Open the water tank lid (2).
• Fill it with water. Close the lid (2).
Note:
•
Do not fill it with water above
MAX. indication.
• If you need to refill the water
tank during ironing, turn off the
iron and unplug the power cord
from the outlet.
• After you finish ironing, open
the water tank lid (2) and drain the
remaining water.
IRONING TEMPERATURE
Before operating test the heated iron
on the old cloth to be sure that the iron
sole (13) and the water tank (10) are
clean.
• Always check the recommended iron
temperature indicated on the tag be-
fore ironing.
• If the tag does not list the recom-
mended ironing temperature, but
you know the type of fabric, then use
the following table to determine the
proper temperature.
Signs Fabric type/temperature
•
Synthetics, nylon, acryl, polyester
(low temperature)
•• Silk/wool (medium temperature)
••• Cotton/flax (high temperature)
• This table is only for smooth materi-
als. Fabrics of other types (crimped,
raised etc.) are best ironed at low
temperature.
• First sort items by ironing tempera-
ture: wool with wool, cotton with cot-
ton etc.
• The iron heats up faster than is cools
down. For this reason it is recom-
mended to begin ironing at low tem-
perature (for instance synthetic fab-
rics). After that, move to higher tem-
perature ironing. Cotton and linens
should be ironed last.
• If an item is made from a mix of fab-
rics, then the iron should be set for
the fabric with the lowest ironing (for
instance if an item is made from 60%
polyester and 40% cotton, it should
be ironed at the temperature used for
ironing polyester “
• ”).
• If you cannot define the fabric the
item is made from, find a place on it
that is hidden while wearing and, on
practice select the ironing tempera-
ture (always start at the lowest and
gradually raise it until you get the de-
sired result.)
• Corduroy and other fabrics that start
glossy quickly should be ironed
strictly in one direction (along the
lines) with slight pressure.
