9 Don't use the appliance for any purpose other than those described in these instructions.
10 Don't scratch the soleplate – avoid buttons, zips, etc.
11 The appliance has a protective thermal fuse, which will blow if it overheats. If this happens,
the appliance will stop working, and must be returned for repair.
U BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME
• Remove any labels, stickers or packaging from the iron and soleplate.
• Don't worry if the iron smokes a bit at first, it'll stop as the element cures.
• Iron an old piece of cotton fabric, to clean the soleplate.
• Press the # and * buttons 3 or 4 times, to check them.
C AUTO SHUT-OFF
• If the iron is motionless, it will switch off after about 30 seconds with the soleplate down, or
about 8 minutes if it's upright.
• The auto shut-off light will flash, and keep on flashing till you move the iron.
• To switch on again, lift it up, tilt it forward, then sit it upright to return to operating
temperature.
• No settings are lost during auto shut-off.
C PREPARATION
1 Check for textile care symbols (i j k l).
2 Iron fabrics needing low temperatures j first, then those that need medium temperatures
k, and finish with those needing high temperatures l.
X FILLING
3 The iron may be used with tap-water, but if you live in a hard-water area, you should use
distilled water (not chemically descaled water).
4 If you buy distilled water, check that it is marketed as suitable for irons.
