4. In order to protect against the risk of electric shock, do not immerse iron power
base into water or any other liquids
5. Connect the appliance only to an alternating current of the voltage specied on
the rating plate and only to an earthed socket. To avoid a circuit overload, do not
operate another high wattage appliance in the same circuit.
6. Never yank cord to disconnect from outlet; instead, grasp plug and pull to disconnect.
7. During use, do not lift the appliance by power cord/supply hose.
8. Always disconnect the plug of the appliance from electrical outlet when lling with
water or emptying and when not in use.
9. Do not operate the appliance with a damaged cord or if the appliance has been
dropped or damaged, it must be taken to a qualied serviceman or manufacturer or
its service agent for examination and repair. Incorrect re-assembly can cause a risk
of electric shock when the iron is used.
10. Keep the iron and its cord out of reach of children less than 8 years of age when it
is energized or cooling down.
11. During use, always place the power base on a stable, level and horizontal surface
or ironing board, and then place the iron on the power base.
12. Place the iron on the power base. Do not allow power cord or supply hose to
touch hot surface.
13. Burns can occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water or steam. Use caution
when using the appliance. If the iron is placed onto the iron rest plate during in use,
the iron rest plate may become a hot surface. Do not touch the iron rest plate and
the soleplate until they have cooled down completely.
14. Never use the iron facing towards people because the steam can cause burns.
15. Never twist the supply hose during use.

1. Follow the ironing instructions on the garment label. If there is no
instruction label, but you know what kind of fabric it is, please refer to the fabric
setting chart described opposite.
2. The fabric setting chart is only valid for plain fabrics and not for materials to which
nishes, glosses etc, have been applied. Textiles to which some kind of nish has
been applied (gloss, crinkle, relief etc.) is best ironed at a lower temperature.
3. First sort laundry according to ironing temperature setting guide: wool with wool,
cotton with cotton, etc.
4. The iron heats up more quickly than it cools down. Therefore, start ironing articles
that need to be ironed at the lowest temperature, such as those made of
synthetic bres.
5. If the fabric consists of various kinds of bres, always select the temperature
required by the most delicate bres, i.e. the lowest temperature. If, for example,
an article consists of 60% polyester and 40% cotton, according to the fabric setting
chart it should be ironed for polyester.
6. If you do not know what kind of fabric the article is made of, iron a piece of the
material which is not visible when you wear it to nd out the appropriate
temperature for your articles.
7. Pure woolen fabrics (100% wool) should be ironed with the iron setting to steam
ironing position. It is advisable to set the selection control button to "COTTON"
position and use a dry pressing cloth.
8. When steam ironing woolen fabrics, shiny patches may occur. You may prevent
this by turning the article inside out and ironing the reverse side.
9. After using steam ironing for cotton fabrics, do not iron articles requiring a lower
temperature (such as nylon etc.) immediately. It is advisable to adjust the selection
button to the lower setting, waiting for about 2-4 minutes until the blue indicator
light turns off, and then you can start ironing.
Important Hints
Do not ll water tank with vinegar, starch, chemically descaled water or
descaling agents.

If there is no water or not enough water in the tank, the lling indicator light on con-
trol panel will start blinking. An alarm will sound 5 BEEPs to indicate lling is needed.
1. Press the water tank lock upwards and slide the detachable water tank outwards
from the base.
2. Take the lter upwards out from the water ll hole.
(You can take the lter out of the opening for lling water into water tank,
or ll water into water tank directly with the lter already in the opening).
3. Fill the water tank up to or below the “MAX” ll line with clean tap water.
4. Replace lter back into water lling hole.
5. Replace the water tank into the base unit again. It will be locked in place with
the base when a “click” sound is heard.
6. Always pour out the remaining water after use.
Note:
When the water level in the tank falls below a certain level, the pump will
make a noise. When this happens, stop ironing and rell the tank.

1. Fill water tank with clean tap water refering to the lling instructions.
For better performance, please immerse lter in water for several minutes
before installing it into the water tank.
2. Connect the appliance to a suitable socket outlet. The power indicator light
(red) “ ” will light up on the iron unit showing that the unit has been connected
to the power supply.
3. Set selection button to desired position according to fabric setting chart
on page 08. The setting indicator light (blue) on the iron unit will blink slowly
to indicate the unit is heating up. When the blue indicator light changes to a steady
light and an audible “Bi” signal is produced, the desired temperature has been
reached and it is ready for steam ironing. During use, temperature indicator light
will sometimes blink and sometimes be a steady light. This does not indicate a
defect or hazard - this is because the appliance temperature is constant.
4. Before rst use, clean the iron unit as following methods:
Take the iron up from the base unit, press steam button underneath the handle
to allow steam ON for 30 seconds, and then OFF for 30 seconds. This cycle
should be repeated for 2 times. When blue indicator light stop blinking, it is ready
for use.
5. During steam ironing, steam should be automatically adjusted according to
sole-plate temperature.
6. After use, put iron unit back onto the base unit again, set selection button to “ ”,
and then unplug the appliance from main socket .
7. Slide out the water tank and pour out the remaining water.


Note:
a. For rst use, it is normal that a slight vibrating sound may occur from
the electrical pump inside the base unit for a few seconds when steam
ironing is started. It is because there is air inside the lter. It will stop when
the air inside the lter has been pumped out. If this abnomal condition
continues to happen for more than 60 seconds, please check whether
water tank and lter is assembled correctly.
b. When set at “NYLON” position, no steam is released since dry ironing
is most suitable.
c. When fabric setting is set at “POLYESTER” / “RAYON” / “COTTON”
“LINEN”, steam will automatically vary according to sole-plate
temperature. The pump will stop working and no steam released when the
sole-plate temperature becomes too low. It will resume once reheated
to the desired temperature.

1. The lter is designed to reduce the build-up of limescale which occurs during
steam ironing to prolong the working life of your iron. However, please
note that the lter will not completely stop the natural process of limescale
build-up.
2. The lter should be replaced with a new one after 2-3 months. The iron can still
be used with a clogged lter. However, limescale will most probably be built up
in the steam chamber. This happens depending on the quality of your local
water quality. You should replace the lter as soon as possible or mix your
water with 50% distilled water.
