Preparation
What water to use ?
• Tap water: Your appliance has been designed to function using untreated tap
water. If your water is very hard, we recommend you use a mix of 50% untrea-
ted tap water and 50% distilled water available in most shops.
• Types of water not to use: Heat concentrates the elements contained in water
during evaporation. The types of water listed below may contain organic waste, mi-
neral or chemical elements that can cause spitting, brown staining or premature
wear of the appliance: water from clothes dryers, scented or softened water, water
from refrigerators, batteries, air conditioners, rain water, boiled, filtered or bottled
water. These types of water should not be used in your TEFAL iron. Also only use
distilled water as advised above.
• Place your steam station on a flat, stable, heat-resistant surface.
• Check that your appliance is unplugged and cold.
• Unscrew the boiler cap.
• Using a water jug, fill with maximum 1 litre of water. Fill the boiler, taking care that the water does not spill over
fig.4. If this occurs, remove the excess water.
• Replace the boiler cap, screwing on firmly, but not over tight.
Using your steam station
• Completely unwind the power cord and the steam cord from its storage space .
• Tilt the locking ring of the iron forwards to release the safety catch.
• Plug in your steam station to an earthed socket.
• Press the on/off luminous switch. It comes on and the boiler heats up.
• After approximately 8 minutes or when the steam ready indicator light comes on (ac-
cording to model), the steam is ready
• During ironing the iron's thermostat light and the steam indicator (according to model)
will go on and off according to the temperature control.

Always remember:
Never use rainwater or
water containing additives
(like starch, fragrance or
water from domestic
appliances). Such additives
can affect the steam
properties and at high
temperature, form deposits
in the steam station
chamber which are likely to
stain your washing.
Filling the boiler
The first time the ap-
pliance is used, there
may be some fumes
and smell but this is
not harmful. They will
not affect use and will
disappear rapidly.
