IMPORTANT INFORMATION
This iron is intended for use with tap water. However, if the water in your region is very “hard” or comes from
areas close to the sea, you should use demineralized water for irons, available from the shops. In case of
doubt, only use demineralized water for irons.
Do not use chemical additives, fragranced liquids or lime scale removing agents. These substances may
damage the appliance.
The boiler may contain water already, as each appliance is tested before being sold.
Before using the iron for the first time, you should place a cloth between the iron and the fabric to be ironed.
Before ironing, you should spray a jet of steam into the air, to dispel any residual condensation.
