For first time use, a slight emission of smoke and sounds made by the expanding plastics is quite normal and it stops
after a short time. We also recommend passing the iron over an ordinary cloth before using it. Both temperature dial
and most items of laundry have a marking which corresponds with this code:

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
FILLING THE RESERVOIR
1. Make sure the plug is disconnected from the socket.
2. Move the steam selector to "0".
3. Open the lid.
4. Raise the tip of the iron to let the water in without overflowing.
5. Slowly pour the water into the reservoir with not more than the marked "MAX" level (about 100ml) & close the lid.
STEAM IRONING
The quantity of steam is regulated by the steam selector.
Move the steam selector to a position between minimum and maximum depending on the quantity of steam required
and the temperature selected. Warning: the iron gives off steam continuously only if you hold the iron horizontally. You
can stop the continuous steam by placing the iron in a vertical position or by moving the steam selector to "0". As
indicated on the thermostat knob and in the initial table, you can only use steam at the highest temperatures. If the
selected temperature is too low, water may drip onto the plate.
DRY IRONING
To iron w/o steam, follow the instructions in section "steam ironing", leaving the steam selector on position "0".
