FAQs
Can I use scented additives in the water tank?
No, additives can damage the internal components of the steam system and void your warranty.
Is this iron safe for delicate fabrics?
Yes, provided you set the temperature dial to the appropriate setting for silk or synthetic materials.
How often should I clean the Micro Scale filter?
It is recommended to inspect and rinse the filter once every month, or more frequently if you live in a hard water area.
What is the length of the power cord?
The power cord is designed to provide ample reach for standard ironing boards, typically around 2 meters.
Does it have an anti-drip function?
Yes, the Puregliss is designed to prevent water leakage during low-temperature ironing.
Troubleshooting
The iron is not producing steam
Check that the steam control dial is not set to the 'dry' position and ensure the water tank is filled to the MAX line.
Brown water droplets staining clothes
The Micro Scale filter may need cleaning or the iron has been sitting for too long; perform a self-clean cycle to clear residue from the steam vents.
The iron shuts off during use
This is the safety auto-off feature; simply move the iron or stand it upright and back down to reactivate the heating element.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

- Maintenance: Regularly rinse the Micro Scale filter as instructed in the maintenance menu to prevent calcification.
- Storage: Always store the iron in an upright position after letting it cool completely to protect the soleplate surface.
