If the instructions on the fabric label differ from this guide, follow the instructions on
the label.
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. Set the temperature control to • set the steam control to
S
.
2. Unplug the iron.
3. Hold the iron with the front raised.
4. Raise the side of the water inlet cover to open it.
5. Pour slowly, to let the air in the reservoir escape, otherwise you’ll cause an air
lock and the water will overflow.
6. Don’t fill past max, or water will escape in use.
7. Wipe up any spillage.
SWITCH ON
1. Set the temperature control to • set the steam control to
S
.
2. Stand the iron on its heel.
3. Put the plug into the power socket (switch the socket on, if it’s switchable).
4. Turn the temperature control to bring the setting you want next to the index
mark. The light will come on.
5. When the iron reaches the temperature you set, the light will go off. It’ll then
cycle on and off as the thermostat operates to maintain the temperature.
STEAM IRONING
1. Steam is available when the temperature control is at S or above.
2. Set the steam control to the setting you want,
S
= no steam, # = high steam.
3. Wait till the light goes off, then start ironing.
SPRAY
Water spotting can affect some fabrics. Test this out on a hidden part of the fabric.
1. Lift the iron off the fabric.
2. Aim the spray nozzle at the fabric.
3. Press the * button – you may have to press it 2 or 3 times to pump water
through the system.
