filling Never add fabric conditioner, starches or any other chemicals to the water in your iron. Ensure your iron is switched off and unplugged from the mains supply socket before filling it directly. Do not use demineralised or deionised water to fill your iron as this may prevent some features from operating correctly. If you are only using your iron to steam iron small amounts, you can fill the water tank directly.
using your iron We recommend that you: • Start by ironing those items of laundry that require the lowest temperature (e.g. synthetics). Finish by ironing fabrics which respond best to higher temperatures and steam—such as cotton and linen. • If you iron a fabric made of a blend of fibres set the temperature of your iron to the most delicate fibre.
using your iron Ironing without steam If you intend to dry-iron fabrics there is no need to fill the water tank. However, if water is already in the water tank, you do not need to empty it. 1. Set the steam control to the no steam ( ) position.
using your iron Vertical steam ironing Never iron garments when they are being worn. Your iron can be used for vertical steam ironing curtains, dresses on hangers etc. 1. Make sure your iron has at least a quarter of a tank full of water—see filling on page 2.
