IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When using your flatiron, basic safety precautions should always be followed,
including the following:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING

Use iron only for its intended use.
To protect against a risk of electric shock, do not immerse the iron in water or other liquids.
The iron should always be turned to “min”, before plugging or unplugging from outlet. Never yank cord to disconnect from outlet; instead, grasp plug and pull to disconnect.
Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces. Let iron cool completely before putting away. Loop cord loosely around iron when storing.
Always disconnect iron from electrical outlet when filling with water or emptying and when not in use.
Do not operate 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. Take it to a qualified serviceman for examination and repair. Incorrect reassembly can cause a risk of electric shock when the iron is used.
Close supervision is necessary for any appliance being used by or near children.
Do not leave iron unattended while connected or on an ironing board.
Burns can occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water, or steam. Use caution when you turn a steam iron upside down – there may be hot water in the reservoir.
If the malfunction indicator goes on, the flatiron is not operating normally.
Disconnect from the power supply and have the flatiron serviced by qualified service personnel.
The iron must be used and rested on a stable surface.
The iron is not to be used if it has been dropped, if there are visible signs of damage or if it is leaking.

If the supply cord is damaged ,it must be replaced by the manufacturer. its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS

To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another high wattage appliance on the same circuit.
If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, a 10-ampere cord should be used. Cords rated for less amperage may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it cannot be pulled or tripped over.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

When using the iron for the first time, you may notice a slight emission of smoke and hear some sounds made by the expanding plastics. This is quite normal and it stops after a short time. We also recommend passing the iron over an ordinary cloth before using it for the first time.

Suggestions before using the iron for the first time

Certain parts of the iron have been lightly greased therefore the iron could give off a little smoke when plugged in for the first time. This will cease after a short while.
Before using the iron for the first time , remove the plastic protector from the base (if it has one) clean the base with a soft cloth.
Keep the base very smooth. Do not run it over metal objects (such as against the ironing board, buttons , zips ,etc.)
Pure wool fibres (100% wool)can be ironed with the appliance in the steam position .by preference ,select a high steam position and use a dry ironing cloth.

Selecting the temperature

Check the ironing instructions on the garment to be ironed.
If the garment does not have any ironing instructions but you know the kind of
fabric in question, use the chart below.
Fabrics that have some kind of finish(polishing . wrinkles , contrasts….)can be ironed at the lowest temperatures.
If the fabric contains several kinds of fibres ,always select the temperature applicable ,if an article contains 60% polyester and 40% cotton ,you must always choose the temperature corresponding to polyester and without steam.
First classify the articles to be ironed according to the most suitable ironing
temperature : wool with wool, cotton with cotton, etc. as the iron heats up as fast as it cools , start by ironing the articles requiring the lowest temperature such as those made of synthetic fibres . Progress towards those that require the highest temperatures.
Turn the temperature control until it is in front of the appropriate signal according to the following:
· position for nylon and acetate
·· position for wool ,silk or mixures
··· position for cotton or linen (steam).

How to fill the water tank.

Unplug the iron.
Set the steam ruler to dry ironing .
Fill the tank through the filling hole.
If you have hard water ,it is advisable to use only distilled or demineralized water.
do not use chemically de-limed water or perfumed
Do not store the iron with water in the tank.

Steam ironing

Fill the iron as described in the section “ how to fill the water tan k”.
Plug the iron into the mains.
Steam ironing is only possible when the highest temperatures shown on the temperature control are selected .
Otherwise ,water may escape through the soleplate.
Wait until the pilot light goes out , which indicates that the selected temperature has been reached.
Turn the steam button to the required position.
When the ironing is finished and during breaks in ironing , place the iron in its upright position.
Disconnect the iron from the mains supply . Pour of any remaining water and leave the iron to cool off.

Spray

The spray can be used in any position, either in dry or steam ironing, as long as the water tank is filled with water.
Press the spray button for this function

NOTE : This button has to be pressed repetitively to start this function for the first time.

Shot of steam

Shot of steam give extra steam for removing persistent wrinkles.

Place the temperature selector at the “max” position and wait until the pilot light goes out
Wait for a few seconds for the steam to penetrate the fibre before pressing again.

NOTE : For the best steam quality, do not use more than three successive bursts each time. Several pumping actions are needed to start this function.
Excessive use of this feature will cause the iron to cool , ensure that the pilot light is out, before operating the shot of steam control

Cleaning

Disconnect the appliance from the mains , before cleaning.
Do not use solvents or abrasive products to clean the iron , clean with a damp cloth.

ANTI-DRIP

With the anti-drip system, you can perfectly iron even the most delicate fabrics.
Always iron these fabrics at low temperatures. The plate may cool down to the point where no more steam comes out, but rather drops of boiling water that can leave marks or stains. In these cases, the Anti-drip system automatically activates to prevent vaporization, so that you can iron the most delicate fabrics without risk of spoiling or staining them.

Defects and repairs

Do not attempt to replace a defective mains lead .The appliance has to be returned to an authorized service centre for repair.
Faults-reasons and solutions
