BEFORE YOU START
Location for ironing
Always iron on an ironing board that has an area to stand the iron safely
when not in use. Never iron on furniture, carpets or heat-sensitive surfaces
as the heat of the iron will damage the ironing surface. Never iron clothes on
the body.
When setting up your ironing board, find a location where there is enough
space around the ironing board for you to reach with your iron. Ensure that
the cable can easily reach a power outlet from all positions on the ironing
board and that the cable will not be a hazard to people or pets.
Always keep children and pets away from the area when you are ironing.
Taking care of your iron when ironing
The surface of the soleplate has a special coating for smooth ironing. Never
iron over hard or metal objects such as zips, buttons or metal surfaces on the
ironing board as this may scratch the coitizing
OPERATION
First use
Before using your iron for the first time you should ensure that it is thoroughly cleaned.
- Wipe the soleplate before first use with a clean, soft cloth to ensure the soleplate is clean. Your iron is now ready.
Ironing temperatures
Most garments have an iron temperature marking on a label or tab.
Marking|
---|---
| Do not iron.
| Acrylic, rayon. Low temperature.
| Silk, wool. Medium temperature.
| Cotton, linen. High temperature.
The temperature control on the iron is marked with the corresponding and symbols.
The temperature control is also marked for different fabrics. If you have garments that have no iron temperature label, set the temperature control using the fabric marking on the dial. For mixed fabrics, set the lower temperature.
Sorting your garments for ironing
Before starting to iron, check the markings on the garments and sort the clothing and fabrics into groups which need different temperature settings. Always iron the lowest temperature items first as the iron will heat up quicker than cooling down.
Steam ironing
Steam ironing works by generating a cushion of steam under the iron. Most garments are suitable for steam ironing though some exceptions are pure wool, velvet and corduroy garments.
-
Check that the iron is disconnected from mains power.
-
Turn the steam control to the ‘0’ (steam off) position.
-
Open the water filler cap.
-
Position the iron so that the filler inlet is vertical and fill with fresh, clean water from the filler cup (supplied) to the Max level mark on the iron. Never overfill the iron.
Never use any perfumes or additives as these may damage the iron. -
Close the water filler cap.
-
Turn the Temperature control to the temperature you want.
-
Stand the iron upright on the ironing board rest and connect the power cord to a mains power outlet.
The temperature light will come on and the iron will heat up.
When the iron reaches working temperature, the temperature light will switch off. The iron is now ready to use.
The steam control will regulate the flow of steam when you are ironing. -
Set the steam control to the level you want (mid-way is a
good starting point). -
You can now begin to iron your clothes.
Steam will be generated when the iron is in the horizontal ironing position and will cut off when you stand the iron vertically. You can also shut off steam by turning the steam control to the ‘0’ position. -
You can regulate the flow of steam during ironing with the steam control.
Everyone has their own techniques for ironing, but as a general rule, iron the larger areas first and work out into the corners of garments. Keep the iron moving at all times – the heat from a stationary iron will damage clothing.
Re-filling the tank
If you use all the water in the tank and want to continue ironing.
- Turn the steam control to the ‘0’ (steam off) position.
