Vertical steam
Hold the iron in a vertical position between 1cm and 2cm
away from the item F. Press the shot of steam button ¤,
this will create vertical steam. This feature is especially
useful for removing creases from hanging clothes, curtains,
wall hangings, etc.
Note; For optimum steam quality, do not operate the shot
more than three times in succession.
No drip system
Your iron is fitted with a no drip system which is designed
to prevent water escaping from the soleplate when the iron
is too cold.
During use, the no drip system may emit a loud click,
particularly during heat-up or whilst cooling down. This is
perfectly normal and indicates that the system is
functioning correctly.
Auto shut-off
Your iron is fitted with the auto shut-off function it will
automatically shut down after a set period. The 'safety
switch off' led will flash on the function panel.
If the iron is left unattended in the horizontal position it will
shut down after 30 seconds on certain models and after 1
minute on models with illuminated tanks.
If it is left in the vertical position it will shut down after 8
minutes.
To reactivate the iron gently shake it and wait for the iron to
heat-up as normal.
Life long anti- scale system
The life long anti-scale system reduces scale deposits and
helps prolong the life of the iron.

Jet cleaning
(Certain models only)
Your iron has a built in cleaning system designed to keep
the water valve, steam chamber and steam vents clear of
lint and loose mineral deposits. The 'jet clean' should be
operated after each period of ironing.
To operate, ensure that there is little water in the tank, place
the iron on its heel and turn the temperature control dial to
the maximum setting. Wait for the beep, then unplug the
iron and hold it about 6'' (150mm) above the sink in the
ironing position. Press the shot of steam button about 10
times in succession.
After this cleaning operation, empty out any remaining
water.
WARNING: Do not attempt to descale the soleplate
with descaling products.

To clean a stainless steel soleplate
To keep the soleplate of your iron clean and free of
limescale, we recommend that you use one of the gentle
chrome, silver or stainless steel cleaners that are generally
available. Always follow the manufacturers instructions. To
clean off melted man-made fibres set the iron at 3 dot
position and pass it over a clean piece of cotton which will
draw the deposit off the surface.
To clean a coated soleplate
In the unlikely event of any man-made fibre fusing to the
soleplate, set the iron at the 3 dot position and pass it over
a clean piece of cotton which will draw the deposit off the
surface.
Do not use scouring powder or solution as this could cause
damage to the coating.
To clean the exterior
Allow the iron to cool and wipe over with a damp cloth and
mild detergent, then wipe with a dry cloth.
Emptying and storing
When you have finished ironing, unplug your iron. Ensure
that the variable steam control is set at the '0' position, lift
