FILLING
You may use the iron with tap-water, but if you live in a hard water area, you should use distilled water (not
chemically descaled or softened water).
If you buy distilled water, check that it's suitable for use in irons.
1. Set the temperature control to • and set the steam control to S.
2. Unplug the iron.
3. Hold the iron with the front raised.
4. Open the water inlet cover.
5. Pour slowly, to let the air in the reservoir escape, otherwise you'll cause an air lock and the water will
overflow.
6. Don't fill past the max marking or water will escape in use.
7. Wipe up any spillage.
SWITCH ON
1. Set the temperature control to • and set the steam control to S.
2. Stand the iron on its heel.
3. Put the plug into the power socket (switch the socket on, if it's switchable).
4. Turn the temperature control to bring the setting you want next to the marker. The light will come on.
5. When the iron reaches the temperature you set, the light will go out. It'll then cycle on and off as the
thermostat operates to maintain the temperature.
