WATER SELECTION
Use tap water to fill the tank. If the tap water is
hard, it is recommended to mix tap water with
distilled water in proportion 1:1, if the tap water
is too hard, mix it with distilled water in proportion
1:2 or use distilled water only.
FILLING THE WATER TANK
Before filling the iron with water, make sure that
it is unplugged.
• Set the temperature control knob (10) to the
min position and the continuous steam
supply knob (3) to the
” position.
• Open the water inlet lid (2).
• Pour the water into the water tank (9) using
the beaker (14) and then close the lid (2).
Notes: Do not fill the water tank (9) with scent-
ed liquids, vinegar, starch solution, descaling
reagents, chemicals, etc.
• Do not exceed the MAXmark (12).
• If you need to refill water during ironing,
switch the iron off at first and unplug it.
IRONING TEMPERATURE
• Always check the recommended ironing
temperature indicated on the tag before
ironing.
• If there is no tag with recommended ironing
temperature, but you know the type of fab-
ric, use the following table to determine the
proper ironing temperature.
Symbol
Fabric type (temperature)
Synthetics, nylon, acrylic,
polyester (low temperature)
••
Silk/wool (medium temperature)
•••
Cotton, linen (high temperature)
max
Maximum temperature
• This table is only valid for smooth materials.
Other types of fabrics (crimped, raised etc.)
should be ironed at low temperature.
• Sort items by ironing temperature first: syn-
thetics to synthetics, wool to wool, cotton to
cotton, etc.
• The iron heats up faster than it cools down.
For this reason it is recommended to begin
ironing at low temperature (for instance, syn-
thetic fabrics).
• After that, start ironing at higher temperature
(silk, wool). Cotton and linen items should be
ironed last.
• If an item is made of mixed fabrics, the iron
should be set to the lowest ironing tempera-
ture (for instance, if an item is made of acrylic
and cotton, it should be ironed at the temper-
ature used for acrylic ironing “•”).
• If you cannot define the fabric structure, find a
place that is hidden while wearing and select
the ironing temperature experimentally (always
start with the lowest temperature and raise it
gradually until you get the desired result).
• Corduroy and other fabrics that become
glossy quickly should be ironed strictly in one
direction (in the direction of the pile) with little
pressure.
• To avoid appearance of glossy spots on
synthetic and silk fabrics, iron them back-
side.
SETTING THE IRONING TEMPERATURE
• Place the iron on its base (8).
• Insert the power plug into the mains socket.
• Turn the temperature control knob (10) to set
the required ironing temperature: “•”, “••”,
“•••” or min”, depending on the type of
fabric, the pilot lamp (7) will light up.
• When the soleplate (13) reaches the set tem-
perature and the pilot lamp (7) goes out, you
can start ironing.
Note: At the first switching on, the heating ele-
ment of the iron burns, therefore occurrence of
foreign smell and a small amount of smoke is
possible, it is normal.
WATER SPRAY
• You can dampen the fabric by pressing the
water spray button (4) several times.
• Make sure that there is enough water in the
water tank (9).
DRY IRONING
• Place the iron on its base (8).
• Insert the power plug into the mains socket.
• Turn the temperature control knob (10) to set
the required ironing temperature: “•”, “••”,
“•••” or max”, depending on the type of
fabric, the pilot lamp (7) will light up.
