How to Use

This product is intended for household use only.

IMPORTANT

This product was thoroughly tested by our QA team in our factories prior to shipping. Some residual water from the testing might remain in the unit or the water tank. This is normal and we guarantee this is a brand-new product.

• Remove all labels, stickers, and tags attached to the body of the iron.
• The ceramic-coated soleplate doesn’t come with a protective film, which is normal. Only stainless steel soleplates need protective film.
• Use ordinary tap water for ironing. If the water is very hard, it is possible to mix untreated tap water with distilled or demineralized water.
• For optimum performance, turn the iron on and let it stand for 90 seconds before beginning to iron.
• Always stand the iron on its heel rest when powered on but not in use.
• The iron may give off some smoke and emit an odor when first used. This will cease after a short while. It is safe and will not harm the performance of the iron.

1. Unplug the iron and let it cool.
2. To empty the water, hold the iron over a sink with the tip pointing down. Water will empty out of the water tank opening.

Automatic Anti-Calc Function

Your iron contains an anti-calc cartridge to reduce scale deposits. This considerably prolongs the operational life of your iron. The anti-calc cartridge is an integral part of the water tank and does not need to be replaced.

**Auto-Cleaning System

**

It is recommended to use the Self Clean function once every two weeks to double the life of your iron and secure long-lasting, powerful steam.

1. Fill the water tank to the Max level and slide the Variable Steam Knob to the position.
2. Plug in the iron.
3. Turn the Temperature Control Dial to the Max level and stand the iron on its heel rest. Allow it to heat for about 3 minutes.
4. Unplug the iron and hold over a sink with the soleplate facing down.
5. Press and hold the Self Clean button and gently shake the iron from side to side and front to back. Be careful, as hot water and steam will come out from the steam vents.
6. Continue to press the Self Clean button until all water has emptied.
7. Repeat the self clean process if the water tank still contains a lot of impurities.
8. When finished, release the Self Clean button, stand the iron on its heel rest and plug it in. Heat for about 2 minutes to dry out any remaining water.

Cleaning the Exterior

1. Make sure the iron is unplugged and has cooled down completely.
2. Wipe the outer surfaces with a soft cloth dampened with water and mild household detergent. Never use abrasive, heavy-duty cleansers, vinegar or scouring pads that may scratch or discolor the iron.
3. Do not immerse the iron into water or other liquids.
4. After cleaning, steam the iron over an old cloth to remove any residue from the steam vents.

Soleplate Care
The Self Clean function cleans the steam holes, but will not remove residue from the flat surface of the soleplate. To clean an iron’s soleplate, preheat the iron to the Cotton-Linen ( to MAX) setting and iron over a damp, 100% cotton cloth. This creates heavy steam that transfers residue from the soleplate to the cloth.

NOTES

• Care should be taken while cleaning as steam can burn.
• Never iron over zippers, pins, metal rivets, or snaps since these may scratch the soleplate.
• Do not use abrasive cleansers or metal scouring pads.

Storing the Iron

1. Unplug the iron and let it cool completely.
2. Make sure the Variable Steam Knob is in the position.
3. Store the iron on its heel rest. Storing the iron on its soleplate may cause leaks or damage.

Tips for Best Ironing Results

FABRIC FACTS AND LABELS:

Every fabric is different and should be treated accordingly. The label inside clothing or linens should contain fabric care instructions that include ironing recommendations. As a general rule, these instructions should be followed. If the fabric is a blend, use a low temperature setting. If you do not know what the content of the fabric is, use the lowest temperature first and test on an inside seam.

PREPARE TO IRON

1. Cover your ironing board with a padded, heat-resistant cover. Brush or wipe off any dust, dirt, or debris so it doesn’t transfer to clothing.
2. To set the height of the ironing board, stand with your elbows bent at right angles; then drop your hands slightly so your arms are in a comfortable position. Set the height of your ironing board to this height.
3. Check the soleplate for mineral deposits or scorched material before you begin ironing. Follow the “Soleplate Care” instructions.

FAST FACTS

• Always iron with a lengthwise motion. Ironing in a circular motion may stretch fabric.
• Natural fibers such as cotton and linen should be ironed slightly damp for faster, easier ironing. If they are completely dry, use maximum steam while ironing or mist them with water prior to ironing.
• Any portion of a garment that has two layers of fabric such as pockets, seams, collars, and cuffs should first be ironed inside out.
• To press a collar, iron from the points in using small strokes of the iron. After wrinkles are removed, crease the collar into place by hand. Treat French cuffs similarly, gently creasing by hand after ironing.

What type of water to use?

Your steam iron has been designed to function with untreated tap water. If your water is very hard (check with your local water authority), it is possible to mix untreated tap water with store-bought distilled or demineralized water in the following proportions: 50% tap water, 50% distilled or demineralized water.
However, it is necessary to operate the Self Clean function regularly in order to eliminate hard water deposits from the steam chamber. Use the Self Clean function approximately every 2 weeks. If the water is very hard, clean the iron weekly.

What type of water not to use?

Do not use rainwater or water-containing additives (starch, perfume, aromatic substances, softeners, etc.) or water obtained through condensation (e.g. dryer, refrigerators, air conditioners or rainwater). These contain organic waste as well as minerals that condense under influence of heat and cause sputtering, brown stains or the premature wearing of your iron.

 FAQs

Does this iron have an anti-drip feature?****

Yes, it does.

Does this iron have a self-cleaning function?****

No, it doesn’t.

Does this iron have a steam burst feature?****

Yes, it does.

Does this iron have a spray mist feature?****

Yes, it does.

Is this iron cordless?****

Is it safe to use steam iron without water?****

Yes. Simply disconnect your steam iron, allow it to cool, and then empty the water tank to remove the water from the iron. Turn the dial to the dry/steam setting, if your iron has one, or to the “MIN” setting, if it doesn’t have a dry/steam option.

What are the benefits of steam ironing?****

The easiest approach to give your garments a perfectly pressed appearance and feel at home is using a steam iron. Your clothing’ fibres become moistened by the steam from the iron, which makes pressing them simpler. In addition to this, the steam keeps the fibres in place for a longer period of time.

How long does a steam iron take to heat up?****

Generally speaking, it takes two minutes for your iron to heat up. You can tell when your iron has achieved the right temperature for the cloth type you chose by looking at the “Wait” and “Ready” indicators.

When should I use steam when ironing?****

The secret to ironing is steam because it helps remove wrinkles quickly. The fabric’s fibres are penetrated by steam, and they are kept in place by the iron’s heat. In other words, don’t bank on those pants being as well-pressed without steam.

Can steam iron burn clothes?****

While steaming is a mild, danger-free method of removing wrinkles, ironing involves some risk. You risk getting a burn mark if you don’t read the care label on your clothing carefully enough.

How long should a steam iron last?****

Most expensive steam irons ought to last 10 to 20 years. However, there’s a good probability that technology will develop significantly over the next 20 years, so you might decide to update before your iron reaches the end of its useful life.
