OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 

 

BEFORE FIRST USE 

 

Remove any protective films or stickers from the soleplate and the Iron’s body.  Wipe the 

soleplate  with  a  dry  soft  cloth.    Unwind  and  straighten  the  power  cord.    Fill  the  iron  as 

described  in  the  section  “

How  to  Fill  the  Water  Tank

”.    Connect  the  appliance  to  a 

suitable  mains  power  supply  outlet.   Turn  the Temperature  Dial  to  the 

MAX

  position;  the 

pilot light will glow to indicate that the iron is heating up.  Once the pilot light goes off, then 

the  required  temperature  is  reached.    Move  the  steam  knob  to  the 

ON

  position  -  steam 

starts  to  come  out  from  the  vents  on  the  soleplate.    Begin  first  time  ironing  with  an  old 

towel.  When the water tank is empty and there is no more steam that can be produced; 

the preparation work is completed. The iron is now ready for proper use. 

       

Note:

    It  is  normal  for  small  amount  of  smoke  to  be  produced  the  first  time  you  use  the 

iron,  this  will  quickly  disappear.   When  using  the  steam  function  for  the  first  time,  do  not 

direct the steam towards the laundry, as there could be debris from the steam vents.
