FIRST TIME USE

1. Inspect the iron carefully. Select the voltage. Check local supply voltage.

2. Use a screw driver to select the correct voltage (120V or 230V) on the voltage selector that corresponds to your voltage supply.

3. Raise the iron handle until you hear a click sound.

4. Remove any protective film from the soleplate. Polish the soleplate lightly with a clean soft cloth to remove any residues.

5. Place the iron on the ironing board or a flat rigid surface.

FILLING THE IRON

Make sure the iron is unplugged from the mains socket.

Open the Water Filler & Cap, tip the iron down slightly and ll it carefully with fresh water using the supplied ller cup.

If you live in a hard water area, it is advisable to use distilled or de-mineralised water. Avoid using water containing softeners, perfumes or additives.

IRONING TEMPER ATURES 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 irons temperature dial and the table below will help you.

If there are no ironing instructions but you know the fabric, then use the table above. The table is valid only for the actual material and does not take account of any nish applied to the fabric. Fabrics to which a nish has been applied (wrinkle relief, printed T shirts etc.) should be ironed at a lower temperature.

If the fabric contains mixed bres, select the lowest ironing temperature of the composition, e.g. iron a 60% polyester / 40% cotton mix at the temperature indicated for polyester.

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.

Pure (100%) wool fabrics may be pressed with the iron set to a steam position and the garment protected by a dry cloth.

SHOT OF STEAM BUT TON

This feature may be used during ironing but only when the iron is at its highest settings.

Press the Shot of Steam button to release a powerful surge of steam. You may need to press the button a few times to prime the surge of steam.

Wait a few seconds for the steam to penetrate the fabric before pressing the button again.

Excessive use of this feature will cause the iron to cool, and the Temperature Indicator will illuminate. Water will drip from the soleplate.

If this happens, wait for the Temperature Indicator to go o before using this feature again.

Do not iron garments that are dirty or stained. The irons heat may set the stain.

Some parts have been lightly greased and the iron might smoke slightly when switched on for the rst time. After a short while, this will cease.

We recommend passing the iron over a clean cotton cloth before using it for the rst time. The Temperature Indicator will go o when the indicated setting reaches the correct temperature. The iron is now ready for use.

During use the indicator will light on and o as the thermostat maintains the iron at the correct temperature setting.

Do not ll the iron above the max mark indicated on the side of the iron.

To avoid staining, do not use the spray on silk or synthetics, and be very careful when you iron delicate fabrics.

For spray and shot of steam functions to operate, the water reservoir must be at least one-quarter full. If these features stop working, stand the iron on its heel and ll the water reservoir.

Maintaining the finish of the irons soleplate is essential. Keep the soleplate smooth: do not scratch it on metal objects (e.g. the edge of the ironing board, buttons, zippers, etc.) as these may impair performance.
