Set the ironing temperature by turning the adjustment knob (E) past the symbol (
iron to turn off. The iron is now ready for use. Before applying a jet of steam to the article to be ironed, release two or three
good jets of steam towards the floor to stabilise the steam flow. When you press the steam button (H) from 3 to 5 seconds,
a heavy steam jet is dispensed. The steam jet stops when the button is released. If the steam supply button (H) is operated
continuously for more than 30 seconds, drops of water may come from the steam holes in the plate of the iron. It is recom-
mended that the button (H) is used for shorter periods.

First check whether the fabric has a label containing ironing instructions and compare the symbol with the instructions which
follow. If there is no label with instructions, but you know the type of material, follow the instructions below.
Note that the table refers to fabrics not treated with sizing agents or similar products; if they have been, you can also iron
at a lower temperature.
When you change the temperature by turning the thermostat knob (E), the indicator light (D) will light on and remain lit until
the iron has reached the new temperature.
Divide the articles to be ironed according to the types of material: wool with wool, cotton with cotton, etc...
Because the iron heats up much more quickly than it cools down, it is advisable to start with those fabrics which require
lower temperatures and move on to those which require progressively higher temperatures. If the material is made up of
more than one type of fibre, always set the temperature to the fibre which requires less heat. For example, if the material
is made up of 70% synthetics and 30% cotton, set the temperature control to position (•) (see table) without steam, that is,
the temperature for synthetic fabrics.

If you do not know the composition of the article to be ironed, choose a part of the article which will not be seen. Do a test
ironing on this part to establish the appropriate temperature (always start with a relatively low temperature and work up until
the ideal temperature is reached). Pure (100%) wool articles can be ironed with the iron set to one of the steam positions.
