3 Preparation

3.1 Initial use

1. Remove all package materials, labels and protective foil and dispose of them in accordance with the applicable legal regulations.
2. Please clean the outer parts of the appliance as described in the section "Cleaning and Maintenance".
3. Place the appliance on an even, stable, dry and non-slip surface.

In the first use, a light odor may arise from the iron. This condition will turn to be normal after a couple of uses.

WARNING: When your iron is filled with excessive water, it may overflow. To avoid this, make sure that the level of water in the appliance does not exceed the MAX. line.

In order to generate steam, the soleplate (4) has to rise to a certain level of temperature. By means of the 'anti-drip' feature of your iron, water dripping from the soleplate of the iron shall be prevented until the soleplate attains the temperature required.

• If water runs out during ironing, after unplugging, you can top up water without waiting it to cool down.
• Iron your garments which require a low temperature first and then those requiring high temperatures. If the temperature is reduced when the appliance has a high temperature setting, it might be necessary to wait for 3 to 4 minutes for the heat to come down to the set level.

3 Preparation

3.2 Energy saving

To save energy:

• You should use an appropriate temperature setting. If you do not know the appropriate temperature setting, start from the lowest setting and increase the temperature until the fabric is ironed well.
  In order to perform a good ironing try to use the steam at intervals. Using steam continuously will cause more surplus humidity on your products which may lead to re-creasing of your fabric while losing the extra humidity.

3.3 Ironing tips

In order to learn the appropriate ironing temperature to be used for the garment, always read the care label on your garment before setting temperature.
- As the iron gets warmer in a shorter time compared to the time elapsing to cool it down, synthetics, silks and other fabrics alike should be ironed at the beginning by using lower temperature settings.
- If the garment is made of a blend of different fabrics, always start ironing by using the lowest temperature setting first.
- Silk and other textiles which tend to brighten must be ironed on the reverse side. Velvets and other lustrous fabrics must be ironed under little pressure and in one direction only. Always keep the iron moving during ironing.
- Do not use the steam function when ironing colored silk clothes. This may cause stains.

3 Preparation

• Garments made of 100% pure wool can be ironed using steam. Set the temperature setting dial preferably to the MAX setting and lay a dry towel between the garment and the iron.
• Ironing wool garments can cause them to 'shine'. It is therefore recommended to iron such garments inside out.

WARNING: Never iron on metal parts, such as zippers, rivets, or metal buttons as they could damage the soleplate. Always iron around these metal parts.

4 Operation of the Appliance

4.1 Filling the water tank

Always unplug the appliance.
Push the steam setting knob
(7) to left and bring to "0" (off) position.
- Open the water refill lid (6) of the iron and fill in water.
- Close the water refill lid (6).
Even if you will iron your garments without steam; water should be available in the appliance in order to use the water spray when you need it.
- Do not fill the water reservoir with perfume, vinegar, laundry starch, lime removers or other products or chemicals which shall facilitate the ironing process.
- If your tap water is excessively limy, we recommend to use a mixture of tap water with purified water.

4.2 Setting the temperature

After plugging in the iron, set re quired ironing temperature by turning the temperature setting dial (3) to the appropriate position (see the temperature and steam settings table below).
You can increase the temperature of your appliance by turning the temperature setting dial (3) clockwise.

When you are setting the temperature of your appliance, we recommend to consider the following table.

Fabric Type	Temperature Setting	Steam Setting
Synthetic	●	Without steam
Silk	●	Without steam
Wool	●●	Steam
Cotton	●●●	Steam
Linen - Jeans	Max Steam

4 Operation of the Appliance

In order to learn the ironing temperature to be used, check the garment's care label.
- When the thermostat warning light (2) turns off, your iron will have reached the desired temperature.
- If you don't know the fabric of your garment, first iron an invisible part of your garment and determine a correct ironing temperature for it.
In order to prevent the bright stains that may form on the synthetic fabrics such as silk, iron on the reverse side of the fabric. Do not use the spray feature in order to prevent the stain formation.

4.3 Steam ironing

Pull the steam setting knob (7) to the right or left and bring it to steam level "1-2" as you desire.

4.4 Dry ironing

• In order to make dry ironing, you should bring the steam setting knob (7) to "0" (off) position. Having water in the iron would be advantageous; you may use the water spray button (9) when necessary.

4.5 Shock steam

During ironing, in order to remove the tenacious creases, you can gain strong steam by pressing on the shock steam button (8) for 3-4 times in 5-second intervals.
- When you start to iron, shock steam may not emit in your first couple of presses. In order to gain shock steam, the temperature setting dial (3) should be at or a higher level.
- You can open the creased parts of the garments with the steam power which is obtained by pressing the shock steam button (8) during steam ironing. However if this process is maintained without an interruption, water may also come from the soleplate (4) along with the steam.

4 Operation of the Appliance

4.6 Water spray

Make sure there is sufficient water in the water tank. Spray function can be used in order to remove tenacious creases by pressing the water spray button (9) during dry or steam ironing.

4.7 Vertical steam

While the iron is in a vertical position, by pressing the shock steam button (8), you can remove wrinkles and creases from your curtains and your garments on the hanger with the steam you will get by pressing the shock steam button.

WARNING: Never direct the steam to the clothes on the people or the garments on pets.

5 Cleaning and maintenance

5.1 Cleaning

1. Turn off and unplug the appliance before each cleaning process.
2. Wait until your iron cools down completely.
3. Use a slightly damp cloth to clean the outer surface of the iron. Then wait until it dries out completely.
4. Wipe the sediments and residues on the soleplate with a slightly damp cloth and soft, nonabrasive liquid cleaner as necessary.

5.2 Lime removing feature (Self-Clean)

Use the self-clean feature once in every 2 to 3 weeks. If the water of your network is very hard (if lime particles fall down from the base of the appliance), we recommend you to use the self-clean function more frequently.

Always unplug your iron.
- Fill in the water reservoir up to Max. level.
- Do not add vinegar etc. and other lime removing substances into the water reservoir.
Pull the steam setting knob (7) to left and bring to the seamless ironing "0" position.
Plug in the appliance to a grounded outlet and bring the soleplate temperature to maximum.
- Hold the iron over the sink and turn the steam setting and self-clean knob (7) to the "Self Clean" position.

5 Cleaning and maintenance

• Keep the button on the self-cleak position. Gently shake the iron to left and right. Continue this process when the water in the water tank finishes. Release the button when the water is fully drained.
  During this process, the water in the tank comes down into the steam generation reservoir quickly and is released through the soleplate holes along with the lime particles (if any).
• Unplug the appliance and gently move it on an old cloth. Keep ironing until the water and lime stains left on the base are removed. Wait until the iron cools down before storing it.

5.3 Lime protection system (Anti-Calc)

The lime protection system in the water tank of your iron prevents clogging of the steam holes. Lime protection system is always active and there is no need to replace it.

5.4 Storage

If you do not intend to use the steam iron for a long time, please store it carefully.

Make sure that the iron is unplugged and cooled down completely before storing it.
- Empty the water reservoir.
- Please keep the steam iron and its accessories in their original packages.
- Store them in a cool and dry place.
Make sure that the appliance is stored in a place out of the reach of children.
