OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Turn the ON/OFF Switch to the ”on” position,the Power Indicator Light illuminates.
2. The HEATING Light comes on, and the Temperature Digits twinkles. Identify the type
of fabric you will press and then press (+) or (-)button to select the temperature setting
that matches the fabric to be pressed.
IT IS BEST TO START WITH THE MOST DELICATE FABRICS FIRST, AS HIGHER
HEAT WILL CAUSE DAMAGE TO NYLON AND SILKS.

reach selected temperature. The Digital Steam
Press is ready to press when the Temperature
Digits stop glittering. If pressing wool, you may
choose to spray with a burst of steam. This
function is available once the STEAM Light
illuminates.
NOTE: Do not activate burst of steam with unit
completely closed, as this may damage unit. Best
results are obtained if Pressing Plate is held open
approximately 75 mm above Ironing Board before
activating the burst of steam. For safety reasons, do not hold Pressing Plate open more
than 75 mm when using steam burst function.
5. To press, lower Pressing Plate gently onto fabric and Ironing Board. Hold there for 6-8
seconds, then lift up Pressing Plate. Repeat until you have achieved desired crease
and smoothness.
