before first use
Remove all packaging including any soleplate protection before using your iron.
Wipe over the soleplate with a cloth moistened with methylated spirit. Wipe off the
methylated spirit with a damp cloth then dry the soleplate thoroughly.
Fill the water tank and then empty it. This will rinse out any foreign particles remaining in
the water tank from the manufacturing process. Never ll your iron by holding it directly
under a tap, always use a jug.
Before connecting your iron to the mains supply, make sure your supply voltage is the
same as the one indicated on your iron.
When you rst use your iron, there may be a slight odour and it may smoke slightly for the
rst few minutes of operation. This is quite normal and will disappear.

5
filling your iron
Never add fabric conditioner, starches or any other chemicals to the water in
your iron.
Ensure your iron is switched off and unplugged from the mains supply socket.
Set the steam control to the no steam position (0).
Open the water tank inlet cover.
Fill the water tank with ordinary tap water. To avoid air locks, tilt your iron slightly
while lling it.
Don’t ll the iron above the water level indicator MAX marking. Check the water level
by standing the iron on its heel.
When the iron is lled close the water tank inlet cover.
