FILLING
You may use the iron with tap-water, however 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 it is marked as suitable for use in
irons.
• Unplug the iron from the wall power outlet.
• Set the steam control to
no steam.
• Lift the cover of the water inlet to the side to open it.
• Hold the iron with the soleplate horizontal.
• Fill slowly, to let the air in the tank escape, otherwise you will
cause an air lock and the water may overow.
• Do not ll past ‘max’, or water may spill whilst in use.
• Wipe up any spillage.
SWITCHING ON
• Set the temperature control to ‘synthetic / Blue’ and set the steam control to no steam.
• Sit the iron on its heel.
• Plug the power cord into the wall power outlet, and switch it on. The iron will beep and the light
in the handle will come on yellow, to show it’s in standby mode.
• Press and release the temperature button to select the temperature you want.
• The colour of the temperature light depends on the setting. The colours are:
Temperature light colour Temperature setting

• The temperature light will ash while the iron is heating up, then come on continuously when the
set temperature is reached.
