Special
instructions
If your iron does not work,
check the following points:
• Has the temperature
control been set to the
required temperature? Is
the plug in its socket? Is
the plug itself or the socket
faulty? (Check by plugging
in another appliance).
• WARNING: When not in
use, your iron should
never be placed flat and
left on an ironing board.
• To prevent damage to the
textile being ironed, follow
the temperature guide
carefully. (Test the inside of
the hem of the garment).
• When ironing is complete,
remove the plug from the
socket, empty any
remaining water from the
tank, and allow to cool
before storage.
• If you drop or severely
knock your iron, this could
cause internal damage
even if the outside appears
alright. Have it checked by
a qualified electrician.
• It is recommended that you
use up one beaker of water
by operating your iron’s
steam and shot of steam
functions before ironing any
clothes, as some dripping
may occur while your iron’s
steam system is activated.
