4. Operating Instructions

1. Temperature Selection: Rotate the temperature dial to the desired setting based on your fabric type. Refer to garment care labels for guidance.
2. Heating: Wait for the indicator light to turn off, which signifies that the iron has reached the selected temperature. This typically takes about 35 seconds.
3. Dry Ironing: Once heated, gently glide the iron over the fabric to remove wrinkles.
4. Steam Ironing:
   • Ensure the water tank is filled and the iron is heated to temperature setting 3 or higher.
   • Slide the steam on/off switch to the 'ON' position.
   • Hold the iron horizontally and move it over the fabric. Steam will be released from the soleplate.
   • Note: To avoid leakage, ensure the steam switch is only turned on at temperature setting 3 or higher.
5. After Use: Turn the temperature dial to '0' and slide the steam switch to 'OFF'. Unplug the iron and allow it to cool completely before storing.

5. Maintenance

• Empty Water Tank: After each use, ensure the iron is cool, then open the water fill cap and empty any remaining water from the reservoir. This prevents mineral buildup and leakage.
