Using the appliance

Filling the water tank

This appliance has been designed to be used with tap water. However,

if you live in an area with hard water, fast scale build-up may occur.

Therefore, it is recommended to use distilled or demineralized water to

prolong the lifetime of the appliance.

Do not use perfumed water, water from the tumble dryer, vinegar, starch,

descaling agents, ironing aids, chemically descaled water or other

chemicals, as they may cause water spitting, brown staining or damage

to your appliance.

1 Make sure the appliance is unplugged and set the steam slider to

position (Fig. 2).

Fill the water tank up to the MAX indication (Fig. 3).

Close the cap of the lling opening (‘click’) (Fig. 4).

Ironable fabrics

Do not iron non-ironable fabrics. Prints on the garment are not ironable

either.

Fabrics with these symbols (Fig. 5) are ironable, for example linen,

cotton, polyester, silk, wool, viscose and rayon.

Fabrics with this symbol (Fig. 6) are not ironable. These fabrics

include synthetic fabrics such as Spandex or elastane, Spandex-

mixed fabrics and polyolens (e.g. polypropylene). Prints on garments

are not ironable eit.her.

Ironing

Note: The iron may give o some smoke when you use it for the rst

time. This stops after a short while.

1 Put the iron on its heel and plug it in. The ‘iron ready’ light starts

to ash to indicate that the iron is heating up. This takes about

2 minutes (Fig. 7).

When the ‘iron ready’ light turns steady, the iron is ready (Fig. 8).

Select the steam setting to be used (Fig. 9).

Note: To use turbo steam, keep the steam slider pressed to the turbo

steam position continuously.
