Before First Use; Preparation; Which Water Should I Use - T-Fal POWERGLIDE Anti-Calc Instructivo De Operación

BEFORE FIRST USE

Remove any labels from the soleplate before heating
the iron.
Before using the steam function in your iron for the
first time, we recommend that you allow the iron
to operate a few moments in a horizontal position
without coming into contact with your laundry.
Keeping the iron in this position, push the steam
button several times.
During the first few uses, the appliance may produce
smoke, a harmless odour and a light emission of
particles. These are simply the engineering residues
from the manufacturing process burning off. These
are harmless and will quickly disappear.

PREPARATION

Which water should I use?

• Your appliance was designed to operate using
untreated tap water. However, it is necessary to
periodically clean the steam chamber to remove any
mineral deposits.
• Do not use pure demineralised or pure distilled water,
water from clothes dryers, scented or softened water,
rain water, filtered, bottled or boiled water, water from
refrigerators, batteries or air conditioners, pure distilled
water or rain water as these may damage the iron.
These types of water contain organic waste, mineral
elements that become concentrated when heated and
cause spitting, brown staining, leaking or premature
wear on your iron.
If your water is very hard, mix 50% untreated tap
water with 50% distilled water (available in hardware
stores).
