Safety Instructions:
When using your iron, basic safety precautions should always be followed:
1. Make sure the power used corresponds with the one indicated on the rating label.
2. Use the iron only for needed use as descried in the instruction manual.
3. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used 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.
4. Keep the iron out of reach of children.
5. Unplug the iron from the mains electrical supply before:
1）Cleaning
2）Filling with water or emptying the water tank
3）Immediately after use
6. Never operate the iron with damaged power cord or plug, or after it has fallen or
been damaged in any way. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble
the iron, take it to a qualified serviceman for examination and repair.
7. Do not let cord touch hot surfaces.
8. To protect against a risk of electric hazards, do not immerse the iron in water or
any other liquid.
9. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its
service agent or a similarly qualified person to avoid a hazard.
10. The iron must not be left unattended while it is connected to the mains supply.
11. The plug must be removed from the sock-outlet before the water reservoir is filled
with water.
12. The iron must be used and rested on a stable surface.
13. When placing the iron on its stand, ensure that the surface on which the stand is
placed is stable.
14. The iron is not to be used if it has been dropped if there are visible signs of
damage or if it is leaking.

Cautions of the first use:
1. The iron has been greased, and as a result, the iron may slightly smoke when
switched on for the first time. After a short while, this will cease.
2. Before using for the first time, remove any sticker or protective foil from the
soleplate. Clean the soleplate with a soft cloth.
3. To keep the soleplate smooth, avoid hard contact with metal objects (such as
clothes rack, button and slide fastener)
Indicator light:
Plug in the iron, the power indicator light turns on, when the thermostat is heating
up, the heating indicator light turns on, once the thermostat reaches the desired
temperature, the heating indicator light turns off.
Filling With Water:
1. Set the steam regulator to"0"(=no steam) (only for steam iron).
2. Open the water filling cover and turn the iron at a 45° angle to a flat, dry surface.
3. Fill the water tank with water to “MAX”.
4. Push the water filling cover to close it.
NOTE : If the steam regulator is not set to 0 while water is being filled, this might lead
to water leaking from the soleplate.
Before running the iron, please classify the clothes as per its washing label, as it will
be quicker for the iron to heat up that to cool, the clothes (such as synthetic fabric,
silk etc)with lower ironing temperature shall be ironed firstly, and then iron the
clothes (such as wool, cotton and linen etc) with higher temperature.
Dry Ironing:
1. Connect the cable of the appliance to the wall outlet.
2. Turn the temperature control switch to the desired temperature depending on the

turn off.
4. After use, turn the temperature control switch to the “MIN”position.
5. Remove the plug from the wall socket.

After Ironing:
To extend the working life of the iron, whenever you finish ironing, you are
recommended to empty the reservoir as follows:
Unplug from the mains socket. Empty the iron by opening Water Filling Cover and
holding it with the tip pointing downwards. Shake it lightly above a sink then close the
cover. To dry the remaining moisture, turn the iron on again with the thermostat dial in
the MAX position with steam regulator in MAX position until Power Indicator Light goes
