How to use

Fill the water tank if you want to use the steam function, select the appropriate temperature setting for the fabric type, and wait for the iron to reach operating temperature. Use dry mode for delicate fabrics and steam mode for heavier materials or deep creases. Glide the soleplate evenly over garments, applying gentle pressure and adjusting steam output as needed. Empty any remaining water after use and allow the iron to cool before storing.

Usage recommendations

For optimal results, sort laundry by fabric type and start with lower temperature settings for fine fabrics before moving to higher heat for cottons and linens. When using steam, test on an inconspicuous area if you are unsure about a fabric’s heat tolerance. Regularly descale according to local water hardness and the manufacturer’s maintenance guidance to preserve steam performance and extend the appliance’s service life.
