Important Safeguards

When using the Mini Steam Iron, please keep the following safety precautions in mind:

The iron must be used and rested on a stable surface.
Ensure that the surface on which the iron stand is placed is stable.

How to Use

Before using the Mini Steam Iron, please consider the following:

Use pure or distilled water, especially if the tap water in your area is hard.
For different fabric types, adjust the temperature dial accordingly:
- Synthetics, Silks (LOW TEMP)
- Wool (MEDIUM TEMP)
- Cotton, Linen (HIGH TEMP)
The steam button must be in the raised position (C) to release steam. Steam will not be released when the button is pressed down to its lowered position (D). The iron is designed to release steam only in a horizontal position. Steam flow will stop whenever the iron is in a vertical upright position.
Use the steam function mainly for thicker fabrics or those with stubborn wrinkles. To stop steam flow, press the steam button to its lowered position.

Voltage Selector Switch

The Voltage Selector is a recessed switch located at the back of the Mini Steam Iron. It allows you to set the electrical voltage standards based on your country’s requirements. By default, the Voltage Selector is set to 220-240V.

VOLTAGE SELECTOR SWITCH

The Voltage Selector is the recessed switch located at the back of the Steam iron, which can be set to either 100-127V or 220-240V electrical voltage standards based on the country where it is used. By default, the Voltage Selector is set to 220-240V.

SETTING VOLTAGE

The Steam Iron features dual-voltage functionality, which allows it to function
correctly in regions with either 100-127V or 220-240V electrical voltage standards. Voltage is set using the Voltage Selector.
For use in the United Kingdom, Europe and most countries in Asia, the voltage selector switch must be placed in the 220-240 Volt position. Countries in North America, Japan, Taiwan, Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador & Caribbean Islands, the voltage selector must be placed in the 100-127 Volt position. For further information, visit http://www.worldstandards.eu/electricity/plug- voltage-by-country.
NOTE : Make sure to CONFIRM the voltage available at each location before using the iron.

IMPORTANT:

By default, the Voltage Selector is set to the 220-240V setting. Make sure to select the correct voltage for your location before plugging power cord into an electrical outlet.
Always use an appropriate high-quality plug convertor. Using a low quality or inappropriate plug can be dangerous

STEPS TO CHANGE THE VOLTAGE SETTING

NOTE: These steps assume that Voltage Selector is set to 220-240V default.

Locate the Voltage Selector, recessed inside slot at the back of the Steam iron. Locate the white open notch in middle of Voltage Selector (FIGURE 1-A)
Use a tool with a fine tip.
Carefully insert the tip of the tool into the white notch. Slide Voltage Selector to the left, towards 100-127V label (FIGURE 1-B). The iron is now ready for use in a 120V region.
To set unit back to 220V, slide the Voltage Selector as far to the right (towards 220-240V label) as possible.
IMPORTANT: Be sure that Voltage Selector is moved as far to the right as possible for voltage setting to take effect correctly. Voltage Selector should appear as shown (FIGURE 1-C)

FABRIC IRONING RECOMMENDATIONS

For heat-sensitive fabric, cover it with a piece of cotton fabric on top to avoid damage
Iron clothes with lower heat resistance first.
Use an ironing board to avoid any damage to clothing or the iron
If the iron is too hot, it might leave yellow traces on your clothing. If it happens, humidify the stains with oxidized water, rinse and dry.
Black or dark clothing should be ironed from the inside out to avoid leaving a trace.

MAINTENANCE

Always unplug when not in use
Ensure that all water is removed after use
When the iron cools down completely, wipe the main body and the ceramic sole plate with a soft cloth slightly moistened with water.
Do NOT clean the ceramic sole plate with detergents or de-scalers, abrasive or corrosive products.
Do NOT submerge the iron or hold under running water.
Wait for the iron to be completely cool before it is stored away.
Install the water tank cap to product main body.
