BEFORE FIRST USE
• Remove any labels, stickers or packaging from the iron and soleplate.
• Before using the iron for the rst time, or if it’s not been used for a long time, iron a scrap piece of
cotton (an old towel is ideal) to remove any accumulated residues.
• Don’t worry if the iron smokes a bit at rst, it will soon stop as the manufacturing residues evaporate.
AUTO SHUTOFF
If you don’t press the steam trigger for 8 minutes your iron’s auto shut-o feature will operate. The iron will
beep and the temperature light will ash to tell you that it is in auto shut-o mode. To cancel the auto
shut-o mode, press the steam trigger. Note that your iron will need time to heat up again to the selected
temperature. Wait until the temperature light has stopped ashing before resuming ironing.
FILLING/REFILLING
• Don’t add anything to the water and don’t use water with anything added to it. When the water is
converted to steam, chemicals, perfume, and other additives will coat the inside of the steam
chamber, shortening the life of the iron.
1. Remove the reservoir by pulling it away from the body of the steam generator using the grip on the
front of the reservoir .
2. Fill the reservoir to the max mark. Do not exceed the max mark.
3. Ret the reservoir into the base unit.
PRELIMINARY SETTINGS
1. Put the iron on top of the base unit.
2. Put the plug into the power socket (switch the socket on, if it’s switchable).
3. Turn the unit on by setting the on/o button to I.
4. Turn the temperature control to bring the setting you require next to the mark. The thermostat light will
ash until the iron has reached its desired temperature. Once the temperature has been reached the
light will remain on.
This will take 30-60 seconds after you rst switch on your steam station.
5. Use the steam control to select the amount of steam you want (
l
= low,
h
= high).
TEMPERATURE SELECTION GUIDE
1. Check for textile care symbols (i j k l)..
2. Iron fabrics needing low temperatures rst, then those that need medium temperatures , and nish
with those needing high temperatures (or max).
3. Turn the temperature control to bring the setting you require next to the mark.
If the instructions on the fabric label dier from this guide, follow the instructions on the label.
