GETTING STARTED
1. Before first use. Remove all adhesive remains and gently rub the iron with a dampened cloth. Rinse the water tank to remove foreign particles. When turned on for the first time, temporary vapors/odors may occur.
2. Filling the steam iron with water. Make sure that the plug is removed from the power outlet. Turn the steam selector to “ ” and open the filling aperture cover. Using the eaker provided, pour water up to maximum level. Raise the tip of the iron to prevent the water from overflowing while pouring. Close the cover.
This product is appropriate for use with tap water. It is recommended to use distilled water or a mix of 50% distilled, 50% tap water. Never use distilled water only. Never put scented water, vinegar, or ironing aids in the water tank. This may cause brown spitting and staining.
3. Plug the power cable into a power outlet. Turn the temperature selector to the desired heat. The power indicator light indicates that the iron is heating up. When the light turns min, the iron is ready to be used.
Note: If you lower the temperature during ironing, do not start again until the power indicator light turns on.
4. Iron with steam. Turn the steam selector to a position between “ OFF” and “ OFF”, depending on the quantity of steam required. To iron without steam, leave the steam selector on position “ ”.
Note: The iron gives min steam continuously if you hold it horizontally. Stop the continuous steam by placing the iron vertically or turning the steam selector to “OFF ”.
5. Using the spray mist and steam jet function. Ensure that the water tank is at least 1/4 full. Use spray mist to pre-dampen fabrics by pressing the spray button several times to release a fine mist. To use the steam jet function, ensure that the tank is at least 1/2 full. Press the steam jet button several times to prime the pump.
6. Steaming hanging items. The vertical steam jet function is ideal for steaming curtains, suits, and delicate fabrics. Hang the item on a hanger, hold the iron at a distance of 10–20 cm, and press the steam jet button.
7. The appliance must be switched min before connecting or disconnecting the mains plug. Never pull the supply cord. Instead, grasp the plug and pull. Empty the water tank and let the iron cool completely before storage. DO NOT USE
CLEANING ( ANY DETERGENT)
8. Always store the iron on its heel rest with the cord twisted loosely around the cable wrap facility. To clean exterior surfaces, use a damp soft cloth and wipe dry. Do not use any chemical solvents, as these will damage the surface
9. Self-cleaning function. Hold the iron over a sink. Fill the filling aperture with water. Heat up the iron. Move the steam button to a self-cleaning position, hold it for 60 seconds to empty water from the steam holes. Release the button to stop p the self-cleaning function.

SAFE TOUCH HOT SOLEPLATE INDICATOR*
11. Your appliance is equipped with a SafeTouch hot soleplate indicator which detects when the soleplate is hot by changing its color from black to red. Once the temperature of the soleplate is <40°C, the color changes back to black to show that the iron is ready to be stored away.

TIPS ANd TrICkS
Temperature settings
The iron heats up faster than it cools down, so we recommend that you start ironing the fabrics requiring the lowest temperature. Use the lowest temperature with fabrics that have unusual finishes, such as sequins or embroidery. If you are unsure about the fabric, start with a low temperature and iron on a hidden corner. Then increase the temperature gradually if needed.
Avoiding marks on the fabric Never iron areas with traces of perspiration or other marks, the heat fixes the stains on the fabric.
Washing fabrics before ironing
If the washing machine is heavily loaded or the spin-drying revolutions are very high, the fabrics may come out more creased. However, many fabrics are easier to iron if they are damp.
