- The thermostat light comes on. It will go out when the soleplate is hot enough.
- Your iron heats up quickly : so begin by ironing fabrics that are ironed at low temperatures first, then go on to those requiring a higher temperature.
- When ironing fabrics with mixed fibres, set the ironing temperature for the most delicate fibre. For delicate fabrics we recommend testing the fabric first on an inconspicious place (eg inside the hem).
It is normal for the indicator light to switch on and off during ironing. If you turn down the thermostat, wait until the thermostat light comes back on before beginning to iron again.
Storage and Maintenance
Store your iron
- Unplug the iron.
- Wait until the soleplate cools down and Wind the cord around the heel of the iron.

Always set your iron on its heel, in order to avoid domage or scratching to
the soleplate.
Caution: placing your iron flat onto a metallic surface might domage or
scratch the soleplate.
Cleaning the soleplate
- Unplug the iron, and when the soleplate is just warm, wipe it with a soft cloth.
