Frequently Asked Questions - IR302BL TESLA

How do I fill the water tank?

Ensure the iron is unplugged and the thermostat is set to MIN. Place the iron on its heel rest, tilt it forward at a 45° angle, and pour water into the refill opening up to the MAX line. Do not overfill.

Why does water leak from the soleplate?

Water leakage can occur if the thermostat is set below the steam range (e.g., MIN) or if the iron has not reached the correct temperature. Always set the thermostat to the steam range (e.g., MAX) and wait for the indicator light to go off before using steam. Also ensure you do not overfill the tank.

How do I use the burst of steam function?

Press the 'Burst of Steam' button while ironing at a high temperature (e.g., cotton/linen setting). For optimal results, allow 5 seconds between presses and do not press for more than 5 seconds continuously. Wait at least one minute between uses to prevent water leakage.

Can I use tap water in the iron?

It is advisable to use distilled water to minimize scale buildup. If your tap water is very hard, use self-cleaning more frequently. Do not use chemically descaled water.

What does the anti-drip system do?

The anti-drip system automatically prevents water from leaking out of the soleplate when the iron is too cold. You may hear clicking sounds during heating or cooling – this is normal and indicates proper functioning.

How do I clean the soleplate?

Unplug the iron and let it cool. Wipe the soleplate with a damp cloth and a non-abrasive liquid cleaner. For stuck fibers, use a cloth damp with vinegar. Never use strong acids or alkalis, and avoid scratching the soleplate.

How often should I use the self-cleaning function?

Use self-cleaning every two weeks, or more frequently if you have hard water (when flakes appear from the soleplate). The function flushes out impurities and scale through the steam holes.

What should I do if the iron produces little or no steam?

Check that the steam selector is set correctly (not in 'O' position for dry ironing). Ensure the water tank has sufficient water and the thermostat is set to a high temperature. If the steam holes are blocked, clean them with a toothpick or use distilled water.

Can I use the iron vertically for curtains?

Yes, the burst of steam function works vertically. Hold the iron upright, press the steam button, and steam the hanging fabric. Ensure the iron is at a high temperature and do not use this function on synthetic fabrics like nylon or silk.

Is it safe to leave the iron plugged in when not in use?

No. Always unplug the iron when leaving it, even for a short time, and place it on its heel rest on a stable surface. The iron can cause burns or fire if left unattended while connected to the mains.

Filling with Water:

Make sure iron is unplugged and the thermostat dial is in the MIN position. Place iron on the heel rest, tilt forward approximately 45 angle and pour water into the water-filling opening to the MAX position of the water tank.

Vertical Steam

"Burst of Steam" can also be applied when holding the iron in vertical position, this is useful for removing creases from hanging clothes, curtains, etc.

Dry Ironing

1. Set the steam selector to position O(=No Steam)
2. As per washing label of various clothes, set the correct ironing temperature to begin a ironing.

Steam Ironing:

1. Fill water in the iron as per the water-filling methods.
2. Plug the appliance in the socket.
3. If only set thermostat knob to MAX position as per the temperature indicator, steam iron will be available, otherwise water may leak from the soleplate.
4. It indicates that the temperature has been ready until the indicator light goes off.
5. Set the steam selector correctly, increase steam output by pushing the steam selector back and decrease steam output by forward.

CAUTION!

Synthetic Fabric, Nylon, Synthetic Silk and Silk cannot use the steam iron, otherwise it will damage the finish of surface.

Burst of Steam

This function works well for tough wrinkles and heavy fabrics. By pressing "Burst of Steam" button, an intense burst of steam is emitted from the soleplate, this can be very useful when removing stubborn creases. The shot of steam facility can be used only while ironing with high ironing temperature. For optimal result, there should be 5 seconds rest between presses of the steam button. To prevent leaking water from the soleplate does not press the steam button continuously for more than 5 seconds.. Also allow at least one minute interval before applying this burst of steam function.

Spraying Methods:

At any temperature by pressing the spray button a couple of times, the laundry can be damped down. Ensure that there is enough water in the water tank.

Self-Cleaning

Use the self-cleaning function once every two weeks. If the water in your area is very hard(i.e, when flakes come out of the soleplate during ironing),the self-cleaning function should be used more frequently.). Make sure the appliance is unplugged, set the steam selector to position "O", fill the water tank to the MAX position, do not put vinegar or other dealing agents in the water tank., select the maximum ironing temperature, put the plug in the wall socket, unplug the iron when the power indicator lighter has gone out, hold the iron over the sink, press and hold the self-cleaning button and gently shake the iron to and fro. Steam and boiling water will come out of the soleplate, impurities and flakes(if any),will be flushed out. Release the self-cleaning button as soon as all the water in the tank has been used up. Repeat the self-cleaning process if the iron still contains a lot of impurities. After the self-cleaning process, put the plug in the wall socket and let the iron heat up to allow the soleplate to dry, unplug the iron when it has reached the set ironing temperature, move the hot iron gently over a piece of used cloth to remove any water stains that may have formed on the soleplate, let the iron cool down before you store it.

ANTI DRIP

1. Anti-drip system, which is designed to prevent water escaping from the soleplate when the iron is too cold automatically.

2. During use, the anti drip system may emit a loud clicking sound, particularly during heat-up or whilst cooling down. This is perfectly normal and indicates that the system is functioning correctly.

ANTI SCALE

The build-in anti-scale cartridge is designed to reduce the build-up of limescale which occurs during steam ironing. This will prolong the working life of your iron. However, please note that the anti-scale cartridge will not completely stop the natural process of limescale build-up.
