Check the ironing instructions attached to the item (they are on a label showing a symbol of an iron). Always follow these ironing instructions. The indications on the iron's Temperature Dial and the table below will help you.
GARMENT LABEL | FABRIC TYPE | THERMOSTAT REGULATION |
![]() | Synthetic | ![]() |
![]() | Silk-wool | ![]() |
![]() | Cotten-linen | ![]() |
![]() | Fabric not to be ironed |
If there are no ironing instructions but you know the fabric, then use the table above. The table is valid only for the actual materials and does not take into account any finish applied to the fabric. Textiles to which a finish has been applied (wrinkle relief, printed T shirts etc.) should be ironed at a lower temperature.
If the fabric contains mixed fibres, select the lowest ironing temperature of the composition, e.g. iron a 60% polyester / 40% cotton mix at the temperature indicated for polyester.
The iron heats up quicker than it cools down. Sort fabrics to be ironed into groups according to temperature: wool with wool, cotton with cotton, etc. Start by ironing articles requiring low temperature settings and progress to higher ones.
Do not iron garments that are dirty or stained. The iron's heat may set the stain.
Pure (100%) wool fabrics may be pressed with the iron set to a steam position and the garment protected by a dry cloth.
Inspect the iron carefully.
Check that the voltage marked on the rating matches your mains voltage. Remove any protective film from the soleplate. Polish the soleplate lightly with a clean soft cloth to remove any residues.
Place the iron on the ironing board or a flat rigid surface.
Maintaining the finish of the iron's soleplate is essential. Keep the soleplate smooth: do not scratch it on metal objects (e.g. the edge of the ironing board, buttons, zippers, etc.) as these may impair performance.
To prevent water leakage, set to the far side of the Steam Control to prevent water leakage from the soleplate.
When switching off the iron, set the Steam Control to , also turn the Temperature Dial to 0 position, then unplug the iron from the mains socket.
Make sure the iron is unplugged from the mains socket and the Steam Control is at the position.
Open the Water Cap, tip the iron up slightly and fill it carefully with fresh water using the supplied filler cup.
If you live in a hard water area, it is advisable to use distilled or de-mineralised water. Avoid using water containing softeners, perfumes or additives.
Do not fill the iron above the max mark indicated on the side of the iron.
Turn anticlockwise to increase and clockwise to reduce temperature.
Steam ironing should be carried out at the highest settings on the Temperature Dial. Steam ironing at lower temperatures may cause water to leak from the soleplate.
The quantity of steam is regulated by the Steam Control. Move the Steam Control to a suitable position depending on the quantity of steam required and the ironing temperature.
The iron gives off steam continuously only if you hold the iron horizontally. You can stop the continuous steam by placing the iron in a vertical position or by moving the Steam Control to the
position.
This feature may be used during steam or dry ironing only when the iron is at the highest settings on the temperature dial.
Press the Shot of Steam button to release a powerful surge of steam. You may need to press the button a few times to prime the surge of steam.
Wait a few seconds for the steam to penetrate the fabric before pressing the button again.
Excessive use of this feature will cause the iron to cool, and the Temperature Indicator will illuminate.
If this happens, wait for the Temperature Indicator to go off before using this feature again.
You can use this feature for horizontal and vertical ironing.
Press the Spray button to spray water on the material. It may be used for steam or dry ironing.
When switching off the iron, set the Steam Control to , also turn the Temperature Dial to 0 position, then unplug the iron from the mains socket.
Stand the iron in the upright position and let the iron completely cool down.
When the iron is cool:
Open the Water Cap, invert the iron and pour away the excess water from the water tank. When pouring away the water, gently shake the iron to remove any loose particles from the tank.
The self-cleaning feature cleans the inside of the plate, removing impurities. We recommend using it every 10-15 days.
This is designed to prevent water escaping from the soleplate when the iron is cold. During use, the anti drip system may click loudly, particularly when heating up or cooling down. This is perfectly normal and indicates that the system is functioning correctly.
The built-in anti-scale cartridge is designed to reduce the build-up of lime scale which occurs during steam ironing and will prolong the working life of your iron. The anti-scale cartridge will not completely stop the natural process of lime scale buildup so always empty the water after use and self-clean the iron regularly.
