Pour out the remaining water after use.
Note: Tap water can be used in this iron. Do not use water additives or substitute water, such
as linen or scented water in the steam iron. They can stain fabrics or damage the iron. Do not
exceed the 'MAX' mark on the tank.
3. OPERATION
Anti-calc function
The anti-calc function is a permanent system located inside the water tank to eliminate
impurities in water and reduce the problems derived from limescale build-up. To prolong the
efficiency of this system, follow these steps regularly:
Unplug the iron and allow it to cool down.
Fill 3/4 of the measuring cup provided with the iron with water. Add 1 teaspoon of salt and fill
the water tank with this mix.
Leave the mix in the water tank for 15 minutes, shake it occasionally, and empty it. Repeat this
process twice.
Fill the tank with fresh water to rinse it and empty it.
Anti-drip function
This system controls the water flow emitted to the soleplate at all times. Below a certain
temperature, the anti-drip function cuts off the water flow and prevents the iron from dripping
water onto the fabric.
Automatic shut-off function
The iron will automatically turn off when placed in horizontal position for 30 seconds, or in an
upright position for 8 minutes. To indicate that the iron has been turned off, the unit will beep
6 times and the auto shut-off indicator light will blink. The iron can take up to 45-60 minutes
to completely cool down.
To heat up the iron again:
Pick up the iron or slightly move it.
The auto shut-off light indicator will stop blinking.
The auto shut-off light indicator will remain on and the iron will be ready for use.

How to use the water spray
Before using the spray function, check the fabric label for ironing instructions, as some fabrics
may be spotted or stained with moisture. The spray function is particularly helpful to remove
stubborn wrinkles and whenever extra moisture is needed. The spray may be used both with
steam or dry ironing. Simply press the spray mist button when desired.
How to use the steam burst
The steam burst feature provides additional steam to remove stubborn wrinkles. It maybe
used both with steam or dry ironing. Press the power steam button to release a steam burst.
Pressing the button several times may be necessary to build up the steam burst. Wait a few
seconds for the steam to penetrate the fabric before pressing the button again for more steam.
Note: For optimal results, do not apply more than three successive bursts after the indicator
light turns off.
After use
Turn off and unplug the iron.
Empty the iron immediately after use. Do not store the iron with water in its tank.
Allow the iron to completely cool down before cleaning or storing it. Let it rest on its base in
vertical position to protect the soleplate from scratches, corrosion, or stains.
