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).

1. Unplug the iron.
2. Open the water inlet cover.
3. Pour slowly, to let the air in the reservoir escape, otherwise you’ll cause an air lock and the water will

5. Wipe up any spillage.
