. The pilot light on
the iron glows. When the required
temperature is reached the pilot
light goes off.
During use the pilot light will go on and off as the thermostat maintains
the iron at the correct temperature.
Steam Ironing
Steam Ironing should be carried out at the highest settings on the tem-
perature dial.
1. Press the Steam Selector button to select High, Medium or Low
steam as required. The chosen steam indicator will flash. When the
indicator glows steadily, this indicates that the iron can now be
used for steam ironing.
2. Press the Steam trigger for
steam ironing. Release the
trigger to shut off the steam
and return to normal (dry)
ironing.
Whenever the steam button on the
iron is depressed the steam pump
in the base of the appliance will be
distinctly audible. This is normal and
not a fault.
As the soleplate heats up, a little steam will emerge from the soleplate. This
will continue for about 3 seconds and is normal.
