1. Power On: Plug in the appliance. The indicator light will illuminate, indicating the iron is heating up.
2. Select Temperature: Use the temperature control dial on the iron to select the appropriate temperature setting for your fabric type. Refer to the garment's care label.

5.1. Cleaning the Soleplate

• Ensure the iron is unplugged and completely cool.
