Filling with Water:
Make sure iron is unplugged and the thermostat dial is in the MIN position.
Place iron on the heel rest, tilt forward approximately 45 angle and pour
water into the water-filling opening to the MAX position of the water tank.
Vertical Steam
“ Burst of Steam” can also be applied when holding the iron in vertical
position, this is useful for removing creases from hanging clothes, curtains,
etc.
Dry Ironing
- Set the steam selector to position O(=No Steam)
- As per washing label of various clothes, set the correct ironing temperature to begin a ironing.
Steam Ironing:
- Fill water in the iron as per the water-filling methods.
- Plug the appliance in the socket.
- If only set thermostat knob to MAX position as per the temperature indicator, steam iron will be available, otherwise water may leak from the soleplate.
- It indicates that the temperature has been ready until the indicator light goes off.
- Set the steam selector correctly, increase steam output by pushing the steam selector back and decrease steam output by forward.
CAUTION!
Synthetic Fabric, Nylon, Synthetic Silk and Silk cannot use the steam iron,
otherwise it will damage the finish of surface.
Burst of Steam
This function works well for tough wrinkles and heavy fabrics. By pressing
“Burst of Steam” button,an intense burst of steam is emitted from the
soleplate, this can be very useful when removing stubborn creases. The shot of
steam facility can be used only while ironing with high ironing temperature.
For optimal result, there should be 5 seconds rest between presses of the
steam button. To prevent leaking water from the soleplate does not press the
steam button continuously for more than 5 seconds.. Also allow at least one
minute interval before applying this burst of steam function.
Spraying Methods:
At any temperature by pressing the spray button a couple of times, the laundry
can be damped down. Ensure that there is enough water in the water tank.
Self-Cleaning
Use the self-cleaning function once every two weeks. If the water in your area
is very hard(i.e, when flakes come out of the soleplate during ironing),the
self-cleaning function should be used more frequently.). Make sure the
appliance is unplugged, set the steam selector to position “O”, fill the water
tank to the MAX position, do not put vinegar or other dealing agents in the
water tank., select the maximum ironing temperature, put the plug in the wall
socket, unplug the iron when the power indicator lighter has gone out, hold
the iron over the sink, press and hold the self-cleaning button and gently
shake the iron to and fro. Steam and boiling water will come out of the
soleplate, impurities and flakes(if any),will be flushed out. Release the
self-cleaning button as soon as all the water in the tank has been used up.
Repeat the self-cleaning process if the iron still contains a lot of
impurities. After the self-cleaning process, put the plug in the wall socket
and let the iron heat up to allow the soleplate to dry, unplug the iron when
it has reached the set ironing temperature, move the hot iron gently over a
piece of used cloth to remove any water stains that may have formed on the
soleplate, let the iron cool down before you store it.
ANTI-DRIP
- Anti-drip system, which is designed to prevent water escaping from the soleplate when the iron is too cold automatically.
- During use, the anti drip system may emit a loud clicking sound, particularly during heat-up or whilst cooling down. This is perfectly normal and indicates that the system is functioning correctly.
ANTI SCALE
The build-in anti-scale cartridge is designed to reduce the build-up of
limescale which occurs during steam ironing.
This will prolong the working life of your iron. However, please note that the anti-scale cartridge will not completely stop the natural process of limescale build-up.
AUTO SHUT OFF

- If the appliance is hold stationary for 30 seconds while in a leaned (right or left) position, it will be automatically turned off.
- If the appliance is hold stationary for 8 minutes while in upright position, it will be automatically turned off.
