during use, this could cause scalds or burns in case of improper
use.
- Do not touch the soleplate! Hold the iron by its handle.
- Do not leave the power cable hanging over the table or ironing
board, to prevent the appliance from falling.

• In order to avoid that, under unfavourable mains conditions,
phenomena like transient voltage drops or lighting fluctuations
can happen, it is recommended that the iron is connected to a
power supply system with a maximum impedance of 0.26Ω. If
necessary, the user can ask the public power supply company
for the system impedance at the interface point.

fill the water tank.
• Unplug the appliance from the mains supply after each use, or
if a fault is suspected.
• The electrical plug must not be removed from the socket by
pulling the cable.

Tips to help you save energy
Steam production consumes the most energy. To help minimise
the energy used, follow the advice below:
• Regulate the steam according to the selected ironing
temperature, following the instructions in this manual.
• Try to Iron the fabrics while they are still damp and reduce the
steam setting. Steam will be generated from the fabrics rather
than the iron. If you tumble dry your fabrics before ironing them,
set the tumble drier on the 'iron dry' programme.
• Stand the iron upright during pauses. Resting it horizontally with
the steam regulator on generates wasted steam.
