using your iron
Vertical steam ironing
Never iron garments when they are being worn.
Your iron can be used for vertical steam ironing curtains, dresses on hangers etc.
Fill your iron with water.
Plug your iron into the mains supply and switch on.
Set the temperature control dial so it is within the steam range (
ll
or
lll
). The
hotter your iron, the more steam is generated.
The temperature indicator light illuminates to show that your iron is heating. When
the temperature indicator light goes out, your iron is ready to use.
Hold your iron 15cm (6 inches) from the fabric.
Press the shot of steam button. The steam will penetrate the fabric removing the
creases. To apply more steam press the shot of steam button again.
Precondition steam
Keep children away from the front of the iron and do not hold your fingers in
front of the soleplate when using the precondition steam feature.
For difficult areas (e.g. collars, cuffs, pockets, etc.) press the burst of steam button. The
special steam channels in the soleplate deliver more steam around the front part of the
iron preconditioning the fabric before you iron it for easier and faster ironing.
Spraying
The spray function will only operate when there is water in the water tank.
The water spray can be used to help iron heavy fabrics or difficult areas (collars,
pockets, sleeves, creases, etc). It can also be used when ironing delicate fabrics
which cannot be steam ironed.
Simply press the button as required to produce a spray of water. If the spray is being
used for the first time, or if the iron has been standing for some time, you may need
to press the spray button a few times before it works correctly.
Anti-drip feature
When the temperature of your iron is insufficient to create steam, the supply of water is
cut off automatically to avoid any drips from the soleplate.
