Intended use
This appliance is intended only for household use and ironing; it is not suitable for professional use.
Initial use
Prior to initial use, fill twice and vaporize to remove the manufacturing residues. Meanwhile, use the shock steam button (11) frequently.
You can smell a mild odor or see white sediments coming out of the soleplate holes. After performing vaporizing process twice, such odors and sediments will disappear. Also, water droplets may form within the water reservoir; this is normal.

Refilling the water reservoir
Your appliance is designed for use with tap water. If your tap water is excessively hard, we recommend you to use a mixture of tap water with potable water.

Operation

If you don’t know the fabric of your garment, first iron an invisible part of your garment and determine the correct ironing temperature for it.
In order to prevent the bright stains that may form on the synthetic fabrics such as silk, iron on the reverse side of the fabric. Do not use the water spraying feature in order to prevent stain formation.

WARNING: Before ironing first check the label of the garment.

Wait for a few seconds before pressing the shock steam button (11) again. Pressing the button repeatedly may cause water to come through
the soleplate (6) together with steam.
At the start of ironing, the first few presses may not produce shock steam. To produce shock steam, the temperature knob should be at “ ” or higher position.
