STEAM IRONING
FILLING THE RESERVOIR
1. Check that the plug is disconnected from the socket.
2. Move the variable steam control to minimum/off and open the
water inlet cover.
3. Raise the tip of the iron to help the water enter the opening
without overflowing.
4. Slowly pour the water into the reservoir using the fill cup, taking
care not to go over the maximum level indicated by “MAX” on
the reservoir. (If overfilled, water will escape when in use).
5. Close the cover.
Caution: As outlined in the Preparation table
(p.7), synthetic fabric, nylon, synthetic silk and
silk cannot use the steam iron, otherwise it will
damage the surface. These fabrics should be ironed
using the dry iron setting only.
SELECT THE TEMPERATURE
1. Put the iron in a vertical position.
2. Plug into the socket.
3. Adjust the temperature control dial according to the
international symbol on the garment label. The temperature
indicator light will illuminate and indicates that the iron is heating
up. Wait until the temperature indicator light goes off before
ironing.
Warning: during ironing, the temperature control light comes on at
intervals, indicating that the selected temperature is maintained. If you
lower the temperature after ironing at a high temperature, do not start
ironing until the temperature control light comes on again.
