3. On and Off
To turn on your Eurosteam® iron, place the iron in a vertical position, if not placing on an
ironing board iron holder, or heat resistant mat. Always ensure the iron is on a stable surfa-
ce, and plug into a power surge protection bar. The indicator light will switch on. When the
indicator light turns off the Eurosteam® is ready for use. The indicator light will go on and off
through out the ironing session, it indicates that the boiler is constantly heating and pressu-
rizing the water for optimal performance and is normal.
During ironing, your Eurosteam can be rest both in horizontal and vertical position. If you
rest it in horizontal position, please take care to use an ironing board iron holder or an iron
heat resistant mat.
*IMPORTANT*
NEVER unscrew the safety cap while the Eurosteam iron is producing steam
®
and the boiler is under pressu e. This could lead to burning and or scalding.
r
To turn off, carefully grasp plug and remove from power surge protection bar. Allow iron to
rest horizontally or vertically only on a stable surface, such as an ironing board iron holder
or a heat resistant mat, until completely cool. Remove safety cap and drain remaining water
from boiler tank. Store iron in a safe place with safety cap off.
4. Filling the Tank while using the Iron
If you need to fill the boiler during an ironing session, remove the plug from the power surge
protection bar and fully depress the steam button to let out all residual steam. Slowly un-
screw the safety cap, this is made easier with the use of the cap remover. SLOWLY pour a
small amount of water into the tank with the measuring cup, 2-3 times, and allow the steam
to come out the filling tube, then fill boiler as usual. Screw the safety cap on tightly, insert
plug into power surge protection bar and steam will commence in a short time. Do not over
fill the tank, its maximum capacity is equal to the MAX level of the measuring cup, 170 cc
(just under 1 cup).
*For best ironing results use a mesh-type ironing board to allow
TIP
excess steam to escape.
®
*Always rest your Eurosteam iron on stable surface.
*Do not let soleplate contact anything that could scratch or
damage the soleplate, such as zippers or metal studs.
