BEFORE THE FIRST USE
After the unit’s transportation or storage at negative

before using.
•
Unpack the iron and remove any packaging materials
and advertising stickers.
•
If there is a protective film on the soleplate (11),
remove it.
•
There may be water residue in the tank (10), as the

the mains with 60 Hz frequency, the unit does not
need any additional settings.
•
Clean the iron body and the soleplate with a soft,
slightly damp cloth and then wipe it dry.
WATER SELECTION
•
Use tap water to fill the water tank (10) of the iron.
•
Anti-calc function softens water in order to decrease
the mineral deposit in the steam chamber, but we
recommend to fill the tank with water additionaly
cleaned with domestic filters.
•
If tap water is hard, it is recommended to mix it with
distilled water in proportion 1:1. If tap water is too
hard, mix it with distilled water in proportion 1:2 or
use distilled water only.
FILLING THE WATER TANK
ATTENTION!
Before filling the water tank (10) with water make sure
that the iron is switched off and unplugged.
•
Set the temperature control knob (12) to the position
«OFF», and the continuous steam supply knob (3) to
the position « ».

Pour the water into the water tank using the beaker
(14) and then close the lid (2).
Notes:
– do not let water go over the «МАХ» mark when filling
the water tank (10);
– if you need to refill the water tank during ironing,
switch the iron off and remove the power plug from the
mains socket.
IRONING TEMPERATURE
Before using the iron for the first time test the heated
iron on a piece of cloth to be sure that the iron soleplate
(11) and the water tank (10) are clean.
•
Before ironing check the recommended ironing
temperature indicated on the tag.
•
If the item label is marked with the symbol , do not
iron the item.
•
If there is no label on the clothes item, but you know
the type of fabric, refer to the following table to
determine the proper temperature.
Обозначения
Тип ткани (температура)
do not iron
•
Synthetics, nylon, acryl, polyester (low
temperature)
••
Silk/wool (medium temperature)
•••
Cotton (high temperature)
MAX
Linen (high temperature)
•
This table is only valid for smooth materials.
•
Fabrics of other types (crimped, raised, etc.) are best
ironed at low temperature.
•
Sort items by ironing temperature first: synthetics
with synthetics, wool with wool, cotton with cotton.
•
The soleplate (11) heats up faster than it cools down,
that’s why you should start ironing with synthetics,
then increase the temperature and iron silk and wool
items. Cotton and linen items should be ironed last.
•
If an item is made of mixed fabrics, set the lowest
ironing temperature. For instance, if an item is
made from polyester and cotton, set the ironing
temperature for synthetics «•».
•
If you cannot define the fabric structure, find a place
that is inconspicuous while wearing and select the
ironing temperature experimentally (always start with
the lowest temperature and raise it gradually until you
get the desired result).
•
Corduroy and other fabrics that can become glossy
should be ironed backside.

surface.
