• In hard water areas, we recommend
you use distilled water. Do not use
battery water or water with additives
such as starch, perfume, fabric
softeners, etc.
• Stand the iron horizontally and fill the
water tank. Do not exceed the "MAX"
level.
• Plug the iron into the mains and
select the temperature according to
the indications given on the label of
the clothes to be ironed. If you are
not sure about the composition of the
fabric to be ironed, start with a low
temperature and iron a hidden part of
the garment, gradually increasing the
temperature until the creases come
out without the fabric being damaged.
The temperature selector (9) is
marked with the following symbols:
