How to use

Fill the 0.3 L water tank with tap water according to the fill indicator, then plug in the iron and allow it to heat until the ready indicator shows the selected temperature has been reached. Set the temperature dial appropriate to the fabric type and use steam or steam boost for stubborn creases. For vertical steaming, hold the iron upright at a short distance from the hanging fabric and apply short bursts of steam. Empty the water tank after use if storing the iron for a prolonged period.

Usage recommendations

Use distilled or demineralized water if you live in an area with hard water to reduce scale buildup. Adjust the temperature setting to the fabric label to avoid damage, and clean the soleplate when cooled to remove any residue. Store the iron in an upright position on a heat-resistant surface until fully cooled.
