BEFORE FIRST USE

Wipe over the soleplate with a moist cloth then dry the
soleplate thoroughly.
Place your steam generator on your ironing board or on a
secure, heat resistant surface at the same height as your
ironing board.
When you first use your iron, there may be a slight odour
and it may smoke slightly for the first few minutes of
operation. This is normal and will soon disappear.
FILLING YOUR STEAM GENERATOR
Warning: Never add fabric conditioner, starches or any
other chemicals to the water in your steam generator.
Only use cold tap water in your steam generator.
1. Remove the water tank by pressing the water tank
release button underneath the tank. Slide the water
tank out (figure 1).
2. Open the water tank filling cover. Fill the water tank
with cold tap water to the MAX mark (figure 2).
3. Close the water tank filling cover and slide the water
tank back into the base unit until it latches securely
into place. When the tank is correctly fitted, the red
tab will be visible.
Note that when you use your steam generator for the
first time or after rinsing the boiler, a lot of water will be
pumped out of the water tank. Refill the tank as required.
Refilling during use
You can fill your steam generator during use without
having to remove the water tank. The low water light will
flash to let you know that the water tank needs filling.
Open the water tank filling cover and add water as
required. Do not fill past the MAX indicator mark on the
tank (figure 3).

IRONING WITHOUT STEAM

Important: Your iron takes time to heat up and cool
down. If you change the temperature setting on your iron,
you must give it time to adjust to the new setting.
1. Rotate the temperature control ring to set the desired
temperature. The lights in the temperature display
will show the selected temperature. The temperature
indicator light will flash as your steam generator heats
up.
2. When the temperature indicator light stays on your
steam generator is ready to use. The temperature
indicator light will alternate between flashing and on
during ironing as your steam generator maintains the
correct temperature and you can continue ironing as
normal when this happens.
3. Iron your laundry without pressing the steam trigger or
using the steam lock button.
STEAM IRONING
Warning: During steam ironing, if you do not allow your
steam generator to reach the selected temperature water
may drip from the soleplate. During use the steam pipe
and iron rest will become very hot.
1. Fill the water tank with water.
2. Plug your steam generator in and press the on/off
button to switch your steam generator on.
3. Rotate the temperature control ring to set the pointer
to between the and the maximum heat (MAX)
ll
setting. The lights in the temperature display will show
the selected temperature.
4. The temperature indicator light and heat indicator
light will flash as your steam generator heats up.
When they both stop flashing and stay on your steam
generator is ready to use. Both lights will alternate
between flashing and on during ironing as your steam
generator maintains the correct temperature and you
can continue ironing as normal when this happens.
5. Set the desired amount of steam as described below
in the Adjusting the amount of steam section.
6. With the soleplate in contact with the garment, press
the steam trigger for a couple of seconds. It is not
necessary to hold the trigger down continuously as
steam will still be emitted from the soleplate for a
short time after the trigger has been released. If more
steam is required, press the steam trigger again.
Always release the trigger and allow any residual
steam to be released before replacing the iron on its
stand.
The pump will occasionally start and stop during
ironing. This is normal.
ADJUSTING THE AMOUNT OF STEAM
Press the steam level selector button to cycle through
the low, mid and high steam settings. The steam level
indicator lights will show you which steam setting is
selected at each press of the selector button.
