FILING THE WATER TANK
Before filling the water tank make sure that the device is unplugged and that the dry/steam
power selector (1) is set on "0".
Use room temperature ordinary tap water or distilled water for ironing. Never use mineral
water or water containing too much lime or water destined for car batteries.
To fill the water tank use a special measuring cup, the shape of which is adjusted to water-fill
hole. Do not fill the water tank straight from the tap! While pouring water into opening
remember to stick to "MAX" level mark on the side of the water tank (11) and not to overfill.
ANTI-DRIP SYSTEM

Water and steam coming from the iron during self cleaning are hot and there is a danger of
burning.
WATER SPRAY
After filing the water tank you may sprinkle water on ironing surfaces by pressing spray
button (3)

on "0".You may use any range of temperatures depending on the kind of fabric.
