• Before ironing garments, always read and
follow the instructions on the care label.
• For the best results, always use a mesh
type ironing board, which will allow steam
to escape.
• Sort and group your clothes together
depending on the ironing temperature they
require. Start by ironing clothes that require
the lowest temperature first, as Phoenix
Gold
®
heats up faster than it cools down.
• Mixed fibre fabrics should be ironed on a
low temperature. If you are unsure about
which temperature to use, test on an
inconspicuous area, such as an inside
seam, to test the iron.
• Pure wool fabrics can be ironed with
Phoenix Gold
®
by using with the steam
turned on and by placing a dry cloth over
the area you wish to iron. Use on a high
steam intensity setting, but with only a
medium temperature.
• When ironing garments made of velvet, or
fabrics that have a tendency to become
shiny, keep the iron moving in only one
direction and apply only light pressure.
• Silk should be ironed inside out. To
prevent staining, do not spray water
directly onto silk or other delicate fabrics.

After ironing
1.
Allow to cool completely. Unplug and
empty the Water Tank.

Cleaning & Care
General care
Ensure Phoenix Gold
®
is unplugged and has
completely cooled down before cleaning.
Clean the Ceramic Plate and the body of the
iron using a lightly-damp cloth. Do not use
abrasive scourers or brushes to clean any
part of the iron.
If any man-made fibres fuse to the soleplate, set
the iron on MAX and pass it over a clean piece
of cotton to draw the deposit off the surface.
To clean the exterior, allow the unit to cool
and wipe over with a damp cloth and mild
detergent, then wipe dry.
