AUTO SHUT-OFF
• If the iron has not been used within 8 minutes, the indicator light will flash continuously and
the unit will shut down.
• To switch on again, lift up the iron, tilt it forward and press the steam trigger.
Note that your iron will need time to heat up again to the selected temperature. Wait until the
temperature light has stopped flashing before resuming ironing.
REDUCING TEMPERATURE
This can take time, as the iron has to lose the heat it has built up. It is best to organise your
ironing so that you do not need to reduce the temperature.
STEAM IRONING
• Make sure the water tank is full.
• Set the temperature to desired setting.
• Once the temperature has reached the flashing light will remain illuminated.
• The steam control is variable. Choose a position between the low steam and
high steam that best suits your steam requirements.
NOTE: When steam ironing at the lower end of the steam temperature range, it is preferable to set the
steam control to a low steam setting, in order to reduce the incidence of water droplets.
NOTE: When you first start your steam station and pull the trigger for steam ironing, there will be a delay
as your steam station pumps water from the water tank to prime the system. This is normal and may take
20-30 seconds. This will also happen after refilling the water tank.
DRY IRONING
If you are going to be dry ironing only, there is no need to fill the water tank.
• Set the temperature to the desired setting.
• Wait until the light stops flashing, then commence ironing.
• Do not press the steam trigger button.
VERTICAL STEAM
Vertical steaming removes wrinkles from hanging clothes, hanging curtains, and furnishing
fabrics.
• Check that there is water in the tank.
• Turn the temperature control dial to ••• (green) or max (red).
• Wait until the temperature has reached and the light is no longer flashing.
• Check that there is nothing behind the fabric that may be damaged by the steam or heat.
• Check that pockets, turn-ups and cuffs are empty.
• Hold the iron, with the soleplate vertical, close to (but not touching) the fabric.
• Press the steam trigger button using 3-5 second durations and release for 2-3 seconds to
allow temperature to recover.
AFTER USE
• Put the iron on top of the base unit and turn the temperature control to •.
• Set the On/Off switch to O
• Unplug the steam iron from the power.
• Slide out the water tank.
• Hold the water tank over a sink, turn it upside down, and drain the water from the tank.
CAUTION: The water may be hot.
• Let the iron cool down completely before cleaning it, moving it, or storing it away.
