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.
