Special instructions
•
If your steam generator does not work, check
the following points:
Has the iron temperature control been set to
the required temperature? Is the plug in its
socket? Is the plug itself or the socket faulty?
(Check by plugging in another appliance).
•
To prevent damage to the textile being
ironed, follow the temperature guide carefully.
(Test on the inside of the hem of the
garment).
•
If you drop or severely knock your steam
generator, this could cause internal damage
even if the outside appears alright. Have it
checked by a qualified electrician.
•
The temperature of accessible surfaces may
be high when the appliance is operating.
ELECTRICAL
REQUIREMENTS
Check that the voltage on the rating plate of
your appliance corresponds with your house
electricity supply which must be A.C.
(Alternating current).
If the socket outlets in your home are not
suitable for the plug supplied with this
appliance, the plug should be removed and
the appropriate one fitted.
WARNING: A damaged or severed mains
cable fitted with a plug should never be
connected to the mains supply. It must
be destroyed, as a damaged cable
becomes hazardous if connected to a
power socket.
Should the fuse in the 13 amp plug require
changing, a 13 amp BS1362 fuse must be
fitted.
WARNING: This appliance must be
earthed.
BEFORE USE
Remove any protective cover from the
soleplate and the base unit, if any.
Unwind and straighten the supply cord

When ironing with the temperature set at
2-dot setting, the steam output should be set
at the lower end of the steam range.
Textiles and clothes are supposed to carry
ironing instructions. If they don’t, you should
follow the fabric guide on page 7, but be sure
to test the temperature by ironing the hem of
the garment or similar area first.
If you turn the control dial down from a hot
setting to a cooler setting, wait until the iron
temperature has stabilised before you
continue ironing.
