BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME

• 

Remove labels, stickers and packaging from the iron and soleplate.

• 

Don’t worry if the iron smokes a bit at first, it’ll stop as the element cures.

• 

Iron an old piece of cotton fabric, to clean the soleplate.

FILLING

You may use the iron with tap-water, but if you live in a hard water area, you should use distilled 

water (not chemically descaled or softened water). If you buy distilled water, check that it’s 
suitable for use in irons.

1. 

Hold the iron with the front raised.

2.  Open the water inlet cover.
3.  Pour slowly, to let the air in the reservoir escape, otherwise you’ll cause an air lock and the 

water will overflow.

4. 

Don’t fill past 

max

, or water will escape during use.

5.  Wipe up any spillage.
