Chapter 2: Preparaon for Use
Chapter 2.1 : What Kind of Water May be Used?
Chapter 2.2 : Filling the Water Tank
Due to the powerful output of steam, Hoover recommends the use of an acve iron-
ing board with blowing and vacuuming funcon which allows escape of any excess
steam.
Place the ironing system on a stable and level surface, for example on the hard part of
an ironing board or on a heat-resistant surface.
The Hoover ironing system has been designed to be used with tap water only.
There is no need to use dislled or pure dislled water.
Nevertheless, in case you live in a hard water area, you can mix 50% of dislled water
with 50% of tap water.
Do not use any other kind of water or do not add any contents to water tank as it can
damage your appliance.
Switch o the appliance and unplug it.
Open the water tank ller cover (3) to gain access to the water tank.
Fill it with tap water with the help of a bole.
Do not exceed the max mark.
Warning: Do not add vinegar, hot water, perfume, or any other kind of chemical
agents or any other contents in the water tank. It could damage the steam generator
