Familiarize yourself with the components and key features of your Beldray 2-in-1 Cordless Steam Iron.

4. Setup and First Use

4.1 Unpacking

• Carefully remove the iron and all accessories from the packaging.
• Check that all components are present: 1 x Beldray 2-in-1 Cordless Iron, 1 x Power Unit with Cord, 1 x Iron Stand, 1 x Measuring Jug, 1 x Instructional Manual.
• Remove any protective film or stickers from the iron.

4.2 Filling the Water Tank

1. Ensure the iron is unplugged from the mains supply.
2. Open the water tank filler cap, usually located near the handle.
3. Using the provided measuring jug, carefully pour clean tap water into the water tank up to the 'MAX' fill line. The tank has a 300 ml capacity.
4. Close the filler cap securely.
5. Note: For areas with hard water, it is recommended to use a mixture of 50% tap water and 50% distilled water to prevent limescale build-up.

4.3 Initial Heating

1. Place the iron securely on its power unit/stand.
2. Plug the power unit into a suitable mains socket.
3. The iron will begin to heat up. It reaches full heat in approximately 25 seconds. An indicator light on the base will show when it's heating and when it's ready.
4. For the first use, it is advisable to iron an old piece of fabric to remove any manufacturing residues.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Temperature Settings

The iron features variable temperature settings suitable for different fabric types. Always check the garment's care label before ironing.

5.2 Corded vs. Cordless Operation

• Cordless Mode: Place the iron on its power unit to heat up. Once ready, lift the iron off the base for cordless ironing. When the iron cools slightly or needs reheating, simply place it back on the base for approximately 5 seconds to recharge.
• Corded Mode: To use the iron continuously with the cord, ensure the iron is securely locked onto the power unit. There is a safety locking base switch (refer to Figure 3.9) that allows you to secure the iron to the base, converting it into a traditional corded iron.

5.3 Steam Functions

• Continuous Steam: Adjust the steam control dial to the desired steam level. Ensure the iron is at the correct temperature for steam generation.
• Steam Burst: For stubborn creases, press the steam burst button. This delivers a powerful shot of steam (130 g/min). Wait a few seconds between bursts to allow the steam to regenerate.
• Vertical Steaming: The steam burst function can also be used for vertical steaming of hanging garments or curtains. Hold the iron vertically, close to the fabric, and press the steam burst button.
• Water Spray: Press the spray button to mist the fabric with water, which helps to dampen and smooth out creases before ironing.

5.4 Anti-Drip Feature

The anti-drip feature prevents water from leaking from the soleplate when the iron's temperature is too low for steam production. This helps to avoid water stains on your garments.

6. Maintenance and Cleaning

6.1 Cleaning the Soleplate

• Allow the iron to cool completely before cleaning.
• Wipe the ceramic soleplate with a damp cloth and a non-abrasive cleaner if necessary.
• Do not use abrasive scourers or chemical cleaners as these can damage the soleplate.

6.2 Self-Clean Function

The iron features a self-clean function to remove limescale and impurities from the steam vents and internal components.

1. Fill the water tank to the 'MAX' level.
2. Set the temperature dial to maximum.
3. Plug in the iron and allow it to heat up until the indicator light goes out.
4. Unplug the iron from the mains.
5. Hold the iron horizontally over a sink.
6. Press and hold the self-clean button (if available, otherwise use the steam burst button repeatedly while shaking the iron gently). Hot water and steam will be expelled from the soleplate, carrying impurities with it.
7. Continue until the water tank is empty.
8. Reheat the iron and repeat the process if necessary.

6.3 Anti-Calcium Filter

The integrated anti-calcium filter helps to prevent limescale build-up, ensuring optimum performance and extending the life of your iron. This filter does not require replacement but benefits from regular self-cleaning.

6.4 Storage

• Ensure the iron is unplugged and completely cool before storing.
• Empty any remaining water from the tank.
• Store the iron upright on its base in a dry, safe place.
