6 Iron fabrics needing low temperatures j first, then those that need medium temperatures
k, and finish with those needing high temperatures l.
X FILLING
7 The iron may be used with tap-water, but if you live in a hard-water area, you should use
distilled water (not chemically descaled water).
8 If you buy distilled water, check that it is marketed as suitable for irons.
9 Don't add anything to the water – you'll damage the iron.
10 Unplug the appliance.
11 Set the temperature control to •. Set the steam control to S.
12 Place the iron on its soleplate.
13 Pull the funnel from the rear of the iron and push it into the water inlet.
14 Pour water into the funnel
15 Pour slowly, to allow the air in the reservoir to escape, and avoid an airlock.
16 Don't fill past the max mark on the reservoir, or water will escape in use.
17 Wipe up any spillage.
18 Pull the funnel out of the water inlet, and push it into the rear of the iron.
, If you push the funnel too hard, you may jam the valve in the open position.
Press and release the valve to close it (see points 87-90).
C SWITCH ON
19 Set the temperature control to •. Set the steam control to S.
20 Sit the iron on its heel.
21 Move the clip to free the cable.
22 Put the plug into the power socket.
23 Turn the temperature control to bring the setting you want (see the guide below) next to the
5 mark. The light will glow.
24 When the iron reaches the set temperature, the light will go off. It will then cycle on and off as
the thermostat operates to maintain the temperature.

C REDUCING TEMPERATURE
25 Reducing temperature takes longer, as the appliance has to lose heat.
26 Organise your ironing so you don't need to reduce the temperature ("preparation" point 5).
