Safety Instructions
- Use the iron only for its intended use.
- Make sure that the voltage on the rating label of the iron corresponds to the wall outlet voltage.
- When using the iron for the first time, test it on an old piece of fabric to ensure that the soleplate and boiler are completely clean.
- To protect against the risk of electric shock, do not immerse the iron in water or other liquids.
- The temperature setting must always be turned to “min” before plugging or unplugging from the mains outlet.
- Never pull the cord to disconnect from the mains: instead, grasp the plug and pull to disconnect.
- Do not allow the cord to touch hot surfaces. Allow the iron to cool completely before storing away.
- Always disconnect the iron from the electrical outlet when filling with water or emptying when not in use
- Keep the sole plate smooth at all times, avoid hard contact with a metal object.
- Do not operate the iron with a damaged cord or if the iron has been dropped or damaged. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the iron. Contact Sytech Service Centre. Incorrect re-assembly can cause a risk of electric shock when the iron is used.
- If the supply cord is damaged, contact Sytech Service Centre
- If the iron is not operating normally, disconnect it from the power supply. Contact Sytech Service Center.
- Close supervision is necessary for any appliance being used by or near children. Do not leave the iron unattended when connected to the mains or on an ironing board.
- Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
- Burns can occur from touching the hot metal parts, hot water or steam.
- Be extremely careful when you turn a steam iron upside down as there may be hot water in the reservoir.
- Your iron is designed to rest on the heel. Do not leave the iron unattended when switched on. Do not place the iron on an unprotected surface even if it is on its heel rest.

Descriptions of Parts
Before first use
1. Some parts of the iron have been slightly greased and as a result, the
iron might smoke slightly when switched ‘ON’ for the first time. After a short
while, this will cease.
2. Before using for the first time, remove any sticker or protective foil
from the soleplate with a soft cloth.
3. Keep the soleplate smooth: do not scratch the unit against metal objects
(e.g. rack of the ironing board, buttons, zippers)
Setting the temperature
1. Always check to see whether ironing instructions are attached to the
article to be ironed (they can be found on a label showing a symbol of an
iron. The numbers of dots indicate the correct temperature. Refer to the
indications on the temperature dial and in the table below). Follow these
ironing instructions in all cases.
2. If ironing instructions are missing but you do know the kind of fabric,
then see the table below. The table is valid for the actual materials and do
not concern any applied finish, gloss etc.
3. Textile to which some kind of finish has been applied (gloss, wrinkle
relief etc.) can best be ironed on lower temperatures.
4. Sort the fabrics out according to ironing temperature first: wool with
wool, cotton with cotton, etc. The iron heats up quicker than it cools down.
Therefore, start ironing the clothes that require the lowest temperature, and
then progress to higher ones.
5. Turn the temperature control knob round until it is opposite the setting
pointer.
Filling water
1. Make sure the switch is disconnected to the wall outlet before filling
water.
2. Set the steam control knob to the “0” position.
3. Pull down the cover of the water filling mouth and fill water until the
reservoir is filled up.
4. Never exceed the MAX level as marked on the unit.
5. Check the water level through the transparent tank and make sure it does
not surpass the max level.
Note: Tap water can be used for this type of iron. Do not use water additives or substitute water such as scented water. This can damage the steam iron.
Dry Ironing
1. Position the steam iron vertically.
2. Plug in the switch
3. Set the temperature control dial to “MIN” position
4. Preheat the iron until the indicator light turns off
5. Start the dry ironing
Ironing with Steam
- Position the iron vertically and turn the Temperature Control Dial to the steam position.
- Plug the Cord into the electrical outlet.
- Set the Temperature Control Dial to the steam position. Steam Ironing is only possible when at higher temperature settings indicated with the ‘MAX’ mark; otherwise, the water will leak from the soleplate.
- Preheat the iron until the indicator light goes out. The light will turn off when the indicated setting reaches the correct temperature.
- Turn the Variable Steam Control Knob to the required setting for different types of fabric.
- Now steam ironing can begin.
- Ensure that there is enough water in the water reservoir at all times
- Rest the iron on its heel when not using
- Press the steam burst button to emit an intense burst of steam from the soleplate.
- In order to avoid water leaking from the soleplate, do not press the steam button for too long
How to use the burst of steam
The burst of steam feature provides additional steam for removing thick
wrinkles. It may be used during steam or dry ironing.
- Press the Power Steam button to release the burst of steam.
- Pressing the button several times may be necessary to activate the system.
- Wait a few seconds for the steam to penetrate the fabric before pressing the button again for more steam.
Note: For optimum steam quality, do not apply more than three successive shots after the indicator light goes off.
Spraying
Before using the spray feature, check the fabric label for ironing
instructions as some fabrics may be easily damaged with moisture.
Press the spray button and water will be sprayed out from the spraying nozzle.
Make sure there is water in the reservoir at all times.
Self Cleaning
Your iron will give the best ironing results and last longest if you apply the Self Cleaning once a month, or more depending upon the usage.
- Fill the water tank until it is half-full.
- Position the iron on its rear heel.
- Select the temperature control dial to ‘MAX’.
- Plug the iron.
- Allow the iron to heat up until the indicator light first goes out.
- Unplug the iron from the electrical outlet.
- Keep the iron horizontally over the sink.
- Set the variable steam knob at maximum position. Boiling water and steam will now emit from the holes in the soleplate.
- Move the iron forwards and backwards while this happens; go on letting steam and water escape until the water tank is virtually empty.
- Turn the variable steam knob to ‘0’ position.
- Plug in the iron
- Set the temperature dial to the ‘MAX’ position, let the iron heat up again, the remainder of the water inside the steam chamber will now vaporize and leave the iron through the soleplate.
Anti-Drip
The appliance is fitted with an anti-drip device to enhance steaming and
prevent drips of water from the soleplate
Anti-Calc
The appliance is fitted with an anti-calc device to reduce the lime-scale
build up in the water tank and extend the product life.
To prolong the efficiency of this system, follow the below steps:
-
Unplug the iron and allow it to cool down
-
Fill the water cup ¾ and add a teaspoon of salt water and then fill the water tank
Keep the salted water inside for about 15 minutes, shaking the iron from time to time and Then empty it. -
Repeat the same above process by filling the tank with salt water. Shake it occasionally and after 15 minutes, empty the tank.
-
Fill in the water tank with fresh water this time and rinse it after 5 minutes.
Cleaning & Maintenance
- Set the steam control to the lowest position and remove the plug from the wall socket allowing for the unit to cool down completely
- Once it has cooled down, wipe the soleplate with a damp cloth and a non-abrasive (liquid) cleaning agent.
- To keep the soleplate smooth, avoid contact with hard metal objects. Never use a scouring pad, vinegar or other chemicals to clean the soleplate.
- Clean the upper part of the iron with a damp cloth.
- Regularly rinse the water tank with water. Empty the water tank after you have rinsed it.
Storage
- Set the steam control position to the lowest position and remove the plug from the wall socket allowing the unit to cool down completely.
