HOW TO USE
CONTROLS
•
When used for the first time, the appliance may give off smoke and an odour for
several minutes. This is caused by heating and subsequent drying of the sealers
used in assembling the steam generator and iron. This will only happen one time.
DRY IRONING (Just don’t press the steam button!)
1. Connect the appliance to a suitable socket outlet. Then the heating indicator light
will light up to indicate that the unit has been connected to the power supply.
2. Set temperature control knob to desired position according to above ironing
temperature setting guide or fabric setting chart. Heating indicator (8) light on
the iron unit will turn on to indicate that the soleplate is being heated up. When
heating indicator light turns off, it indicates that desired temperature has been
reached. It is ready for dry ironing. During use, it is normal that heating indicator
light will cycle on and off, which means that the soleplate is automatically keeping
temperature constant. (For every first time use, it should be pre-heated for about
3 minutes to ensure even temperature across the soleplate)
3. After use, put iron unit back on the base unit, turn temperature control knob
to“MIN” and turn off power switch on the control panel.
4. Unplug the appliance from main socket.
5. Note: When changing your temperature setting from higher setting to lower,
do not start ironing immediately since it may burn your fabrics. Please wait until
heating indicator light turns on, and then turn off again.
6. For best results always start with the fabrics that need coolest setting first.
STEAM IRONING
7. Follow the steps above but press the steam button during ironing. The high
pressure system and the constant flow of steam makes ironing much easier!
8. For constant steam, press the steam button then push the Steam Lock switch
forward. This will lock the steam trigger in the ON position.
9. To release the steam lock, press the steam trigger and pull the steam lock
switch back.
10. Always release the steam lock between garments or when putting iron back on
its base.
