Preparation

What water to use ?

• Tap water:
Your appliance has been designed to function using untreated tap water. If your
water is very hard, we recommend you use a mix of 50% untreated tap water and
50% distilled water available in most shops.
• Types of water not to use:
Heat concentrates the elements contained in water during evaporation. The types
of water listed below may contain organic waste, mineral or chemical elements
that can cause spitting, brown staining or premature wear of the appliance: water
from clothes dryers, scented or softened water, water from refrigerators, batteries,
air conditioners, rain water, boiled, filtered or bottled water. These types of water
should not be used in your TEFAL iron. Also only use distilled water as advised
above.
• Place your steam station on a flat, stable, heat-resistant surface.
• Check that your appliance is unplugged and cold.
• Unscrew the boiler cap.
• Using a water jug, fill with maximum 1 litre of water. Fill the boiler, taking care that the water
does not spill over fig.4. If this occurs, remove the excess water.
• Replace the boiler cap, screwing on firmly, but not over tight.
Using the Easycord system
• Your iron is equipped with an extension cord system to prevent the cord from dragging
over the laundry and creasing it again when ironing.
• Take the steam cord out of its housing and unwind it completely.
• Press the Eject button and the Easycord system extends automatically.
• When the cord outlet tips, the Easycord system extends automatically without you ha-
ving to press the Eject button - fig.5.

Always remember:
Never use rainwater or
water containing additives
(like starch, fragrance or
water from domestic ap-
pliances). Such additives
can affect the steam pro-
perties and at high tempe-
rature, form deposits in the
steam station chamber
which are likely to stain
your washing.
Filling the boiler
Always use the Easy-
cord system for en-
hanced comfort of
use.
