4. Setup

1. Unpacking: Carefully remove the iron and all accessories from the packaging. Retain packaging for storage or disposal.

3. Filling the Water Tank:
   • Ensure the iron is unplugged from the power outlet and cooled down.
   • Open the water inlet cover.
   • Using a measuring cup, fill the water tank with clean tap water up to the MAX mark. Do not overfill.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1. Heating the Iron

1. Place the iron on its charging base.
2. Turn the temperature control dial to the desired setting according to the fabric type (e.g., Nylon, Silk, Wool, Cotton, Linen). The indicator light will illuminate, indicating the iron is heating.
3. Wait for the indicator light to turn off, signaling that the iron has reached the selected temperature. For cordless use, the iron heats rapidly (approximately 5 seconds).

5.2. Dry Ironing

For dry ironing, ensure the steam control dial is set to the "0" (no steam) position. Select the appropriate temperature and iron as usual.

5.3. Steam Ironing

Steam ironing is recommended for fabrics like cotton and linen that require moisture to remove wrinkles effectively.

1. Fill the water tank as described in the Setup section.
2. Set the temperature control dial to the steam ironing range (usually between Wool and Linen settings). The indicator light will turn on.
3. Once the indicator light turns off, the iron is ready for steam ironing.
4. Adjust the steam control dial to the desired steam output.
5. Iron your garments. For continuous steam, ensure the iron is periodically placed back on its charging base to maintain temperature.

• Steam Burst: Press the steam burst button for an extra shot of steam to tackle stubborn wrinkles. Wait a few seconds between bursts to allow the iron to reheat.
• Spray: Press the spray button to mist the fabric with water, which can help in removing creases, especially during dry ironing.

5.5. Vertical Steaming

The iron can be used for vertical steaming of hanging garments, curtains, or drapes. Hold the iron vertically a few centimeters away from the fabric and press the steam burst button. Ensure the water tank is sufficiently filled.

6. Maintenance and Cleaning

6.1. Cleaning the Soleplate

• Ensure the iron is unplugged and completely cool.
• Wipe the soleplate with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn stains, use a non-abrasive liquid cleaner specifically designed for iron soleplates.
• Never use abrasive scourers or chemical cleaners as they can damage the ceramic coating.

6.2. Self-Cleaning Function

The self-cleaning function helps remove mineral deposits and impurities from the steam vents.

1. Fill the water tank to the MAX level.
2. Set the steam control to "0" and the temperature dial to MAX.
