Unpacking Your Iron
Unpack the iron carefully. If you dispose of the packaging, do so having regard to
any recycling regulations in your area.
The packaging contains:
One Tricity Steam Iron
One filler cup
If any item is missing or damaged:
please contact the Tesco store where you
purchased the item, or your nearest Tesco store. Please have your receipt ready
when you call.
Important Special Features of Your Iron
Ceramic soleplate:
The soleplate (10) of the iron is coated with a special material
to make ironing much easier.
To protect the coating do not use abrasives to clean the iron and avoid running the
iron over hard metal surfaces.
Anti-Drip system:
This is designed to prevent water escaping from the soleplate
when the iron is cold. During use, the anti drip system may emit a loud clicking
sound, particularly when heating up or cooling down. This is perfectly normal and
indicates that the system is functioning correctly.
Anti-Scale system:
The build-in anti-scale cartridge is designed to reduce the
build-up of lime scale which occurs during steam ironing and will prolong the
working life of your iron. However the anti-scale cartridge will not completely stop
the natural process of lime scale build-up so always empty the water after use and
self-clean the iron regularly (see last page).
Ironing Temperatures
Check the ironing instructions attached to the article (they are on a label showing a
symbol of an iron). Always follow these ironing instructions. The indications on the
iron’s temperature dial and the table below will help you.
If there are no ironing instructions but you know the fabric, then use the table
below. The table is valid only for the actual materials and does not take account of
any finish applied to the fabric. Textiles to which a finish has been applied (wrinkle
relief, printed T shirts etc.) should be ironed at lower temperatures.
If the fabric contains mixed fibres, select the lowest ironing temperature of the
composition, e.g. iron a 60% polyester /40% cotton mix at the temperature
indicated for polyester.
Do not iron
Synthetics.
Set Iron to LOW ( • )
Wool, Silk.
Set Iron to MEDIUM ( • • )
Cotton, Linen.
Set Iron to HIGH ( • • • )
The iron heats up quicker than it cools down. Sort fabrics to be ironed into groups
according to temperature; wool with wool, cotton with cotton, etc. Start by ironing
articles requiring low temperature settings and progress to higher ones.
Note:
Do not iron garments that are dirty or stained. The heat may set the stain.
Pure (100%) wool fabrics may be pressed with the iron set to a steam position and
the garment protected by a dry cloth.
