FAQs
What is Auto Steam Technology?
Auto Steam Technology automatically adjusts the steam output based on the soleplate's temperature, simplifying the ironing process by removing the need for manual steam adjustment for different fabric types.
How often should I use the self-clean function?
It is recommended to use the self-clean function periodically, especially if you live in a hard water area, to remove mineral build-up and maintain the iron's performance. Refer to the user manual for the exact frequency and procedure.
Can I use tap water in this iron?
While the iron has an anti-calc function, it is best to use distilled or de-mineralised water, especially in hard water areas, to prolong the life of the iron and maintain optimal steam performance.
What does the 130g steam shot do?
The 130g steam shot is a powerful burst of steam designed to tackle stubborn creases and heavily wrinkled fabrics that require extra steam power.
How do I clean the non-stick soleplate?
When the iron is cool, wipe the non-stick soleplate with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a cleaner specifically designed for non-stick surfaces. Avoid abrasive materials that could damage the coating.
What is the length of the power cord?
The power cord is 2 meters long, providing ample reach around your ironing board.
Troubleshooting
Iron is not producing steam.
Ensure the water tank is filled and the iron has reached its operating temperature. Check that the steam control is set to a steam setting and not 'dry'.
Water is leaking from the soleplate.
Check if the iron is hot enough. If used on a low setting, the anti-drip function may be active. Ensure the water tank is not overfilled and the iron is upright when filling.
Stains appearing on clothes.
This could be residue from the soleplate or limescale. Clean the soleplate with a damp cloth. If limescale is suspected, use the self-clean function. Always ensure the iron is cool before cleaning.
Iron is not heating up.
Verify that the iron is properly plugged into a working power outlet. Check if the power indicator light is on. If not, try a different outlet.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Fill the water tank using the filling cup and ensure the iron is upright.
- Plug the iron into a suitable power socket.
- Select the desired temperature using the dial and wait for the indicator light to turn off, signifying it's ready.
Compatibility:
This iron is suitable for most common ironable fabrics. Always check the garment's care label before ironing. Use distilled or de-mineralised water if you live in a hard water area to benefit from the anti-calc function.
Care:
- After Each Use: Empty the water tank completely. Allow the iron to cool down before storing.
- Cleaning the Soleplate: Wipe with a soft, damp cloth when the iron is cool. For stubborn residue, use a cleaner specifically designed for non-stick soleplates.
- Self-Clean Function: Periodically, press and hold the self-clean button while the iron is hot (refer to the user manual for specific instructions). This flushes out mineral deposits.
