Before first use
•
Before using your iron with the steam function for the first time, we recommend that you operate it
in a horizontal position for a few moments, away from your linen. Under the same conditions, press
the Turbo button a few times .
• During the first few uses, a harmless odour and smoke may be given off. This has no effect on the
use of the iron and will disappear quickly.
Preparation
What water to use ?
• Your appliance has been designed to operate using untreated tap water. However, it is necessary to operate
the Self-Clean function regularly in order to eliminate hard water deposits from the steam chamber.
• Heat concentrates the elements contained in water during evaporation.The types of water listed below
contain organic waste or mineral elements that can cause spitting, brown staining, or premature wear of the
appliance: water from clothes dryers, scented or softened water, water from refrigerators, batteries or air
conditioners, pure distilled or demineralised water or rain water should not be used in your Tefal iron.
Filling the water tank
• Check that the Ultracord system is properly locked.
• Unplug your iron before filling it.
• Set the steam control to “0” – fig.1.
• Take the iron with one hand and tilt it slightly, with the nose of the soleplate pointing down.
• To open the flap of the water tank, push the button – fig.2.
• Fill the tank up to the “MAX” line – fig.3.
• Close the flap of the water tank, until it clicks into place.
Us e
Adjust the temperature and the steam
• Set the thermostat control – fig.4, referring to the table below.
• The thermostat light comes on. It will go out when the soleplate is hot enough – fig.5.
RECOMMENDATIONS
• Your iron heats up quickly: so begin by ironing fabrics that are ironed at low temperatures first, then go on
to those requiring a higher temperature,
• If you turn down the thermostat, wait until the thermostat light comes back on before beginning to iron
again,
• When ironing fabrics with mixed fibres, set the ironing temperature for the most delicate fibre. For delicate
fabrics we recommend testing the fabric first on an inconspicious place eg (inside the hem).
Spray Function (spray)
• Whether steam or dry ironing, you are able to use the spray button to dampen laundry to remove
stubborn creases – fig.6.
