OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Before putting into operation
Remove the protective foil from the soleplate first! The iron must be used and stored on a stable surface.
When ironing for the first time, heat the iron to the highest degree without using water. During this process,
smoke and bad smell may come from the iron, though will vanish shortly. The water reservoir can be filled
afterwards. After filling and heating the iron, leave it to produce steam for at least 1 minute while occasionally
pressing the steam button. This removes any residue from production. We recommend trying the iron on some
common fabric, e.g. a dish towel, prior to using it on your laundry for the first time.
Filling the water tank
Be sure the iron is unplugged from the electrical outlet before filling with water!
Keep the iron in the tilted position, turn off the steam and pour water into the open lid of the filling hole up to
the max. mark. We recommend using distilled or boiled water in the iron.
WARNING: Do not fill the iron directly with water, use only the funnel supplied with the iron!
Temperature settings
Before ironing, sort the garments according to the international textile care and labeling codes found on tags.
If these are missing, separate the garments based on the type of fabric.
