Important Safety Instructions
When using electrical appliances, basic safety
precautions should always be followed,
including the following:
1. Read these instructions carefully before putting
the appliance into operation and keep them for
future consultation.
2. This appliance is only for domestic use, not
industrial use.
3. Do not leave the appliance within the reach of
children or disabled individuals.
4. Before connecting the appliance to the
mains, check that the voltage indicated on the
nameplate coincides with the mains voltage.
5. No liability is accepted for damage caused
through inappropriate handling or use other
than that stipulated in this manual.
6. Do not use this appliance if it is damaged in any
way.
7. Unravel the power cable fully.
8. Always unplug the iron when out of use, even
for a short period.
9. Unplug the iron before filling or emptying the
water deposit.
10. Never submerge the iron in water or put
it under running water.
Before first use
• Some parts of the iron have been lightly
greased and thus the iron may produce a little
smoke when plugged in for the first time. This
will stop after a short period of time.
1. Before putting into use for the first time, remove
the plastic cover from the base and clean the
base with a soft cloth.
2. Keep the base smooth: do not touch metal
objects (buttons, zips, etc.)
Pure wool fabrics (100%) can be ironed with the
iron set to steam. Preferably choose a high
steam position and use a dry ironing cloth.
Instructions for Use
Temperature setting
1. Always check each garment’s ironing
instructions.
2. If a garment does not have any ironing
instructions, see the fabric classification below.
3. If the garment has several different types of
fibre, select the lowest temperature setting.
4. Classify the number of garments by ironing
temperature. The iron heats up faster than it
cools down so we recommend you start your
ironing with those garments that require lower
temperatures and then gradually increase the
setting.
5. Connect the appliance to the mains. The pilot
light will come on. Turn the temperature gauge
to the desired temperature.
* Setting for nylon and acetate
** Setting for wool or silk
*** Setting for cotton or linen
The pilot turns off when the desired temperature
is reached.
How to fill the water deposit
1. Unplug the appliance.
2. Fill the water deposit through the filling hole
(Fig. 1).
3. If your tap water is hard, use distilled water only.
4. Do not use chemically decalcified water.
5. The harder the water the more frequently the
iron should be cleaned.
6. Throw out any excess water after use, once the
iron has been unplugged.
Steam Ironing
1. Fill up the iron as described in the section “How
to fill the water deposit”.
2. Plug in the iron.
3. Steam ironing is only possible if you select the
highest temperature***. Otherwise water may
seep through the base of the iron.
4. Wait for the pilot light to go off.
5. Turn the steam regulator to the desired position
6. During pauses and when the ironing is
complete, leave the iron standing upright.
7. Unplug the iron by pulling the plug out of the
socket. Pour out any leftover water and let the
iron cool down.
Spray
1. The spray can be used when dry ironing or
when steam ironing.
2. To do so, press the spray button. The spray
button has to be pressed repeatedly to release
the first spray.
Steam blast
The steam blast gives an extra steam jet to help
remove tough creases.
1. Select the maximum temperature*** on the
temperature gauge. Wait for the pilot light to go
off.
2. Press the steam blast button. Wait a few
seconds for the steam to penetrate into the
fabric before pressing again. For optimum
steam quality, do not apply more than three
successive blasts. The spray button has to be
