water is very hard, mix it with distilled water at
a ratio of 1:2 or use only distilled water.
Note:
Do not fill the water tank (12) with scented
liquids, vinegar, starch solutions, descal-
ing reagents, chemical substances etc.
FILLING THE WATER TANK (pic. 1, 2)
Make sure that the iron is disconnected from
electrical power before filling it with water.
Turn the steam release regulator (3) anti-
clockwise until bumping-steam supply is
off.
Open the water tank lid (2).
Fill it with water using the water bowl (18).
Close the lid (2).
Note:
Do not fill it with water above MAX
mark.
• If you need to refill the water tank dur-
ing ironing, turn off the iron and unplug
the power cord from the outlet.
After you finish ironing, open the water
tank lid (2) and drain the remaining wa-
ter (pic.8).
IRONING TEMPERATURE
Before operating test the heated iron on the
old cloth to be sure that the iron sole (17) and
the water tank (12) are clean.
Always check the recommended iron tem-
perature indicated on the tag before iron-
ing.
If the tag does not list the recommended
ironing temperature, but you know the type
of fabric, then use the following table to
determine the proper temperature.
Signs Fabric type/temperature
Synthetics, nylon, acryl, polyester (low
temperature)
••
Silk/wool (medium temperature)
•••
Cotton/flax (high temperature)
This table is only for smooth materials.
Fabrics of other types (crimped, raised
etc.) are best ironed at low temperature.
First sort items by ironing temperature:
wool with wool, cotton with cotton etc.
The iron heats up faster than is cools down.
For this reason it is recommended to be-
gin ironing at low temperature (for instance
synthetic fabrics). After that, move to high-
er temperature ironing. Cotton and linens
should be ironed last.
If an item is made from a mix of fabrics,
then the iron should be set for the fabric
with the lowest ironing (for instance if an
item is made from 60% polyester and 40%
cotton, it should be ironed at the tempera-
ture used for ironing polyester “”).
If you cannot define the fabric the item is
made from, find a place on it that is hid-
den while wearing and, on practice select
the ironing temperature (always start at the
lowest and gradually raise it until you get
the desired result.)
Corduroy and other fabrics that start glossy
quickly should be ironed strictly in one di-
rection (along the lines) with slight pres-
sure.
To avoid appearance of glossy spots on the
synthetic and silk fabrics, iron them back-
side.
SETTING THE IRONING TEMPERATURE
Place the iron on the base (11).
Insert the power plug into the outlet.
Set the temperature regulator (13) to the
required ironing temperature: “”, “••”,
•••” or “max” (depending on the type
of fabric), the (7) indicator will light up
(Pic.3).
When the sole temperature (17) reaches
the desired temperature value, the (7) indi-
cator will go out, you can start ironing.
Note: While steam ironing set the tem-
perature to «•••» or «МАХ».
WATER SPRAYER
You can dampen the fabric by pressing the
spray button (5) several times (pic.4).
• Make sure that there is enough water in the
water tank (12).
