Preparation
What water to use ?
•
Your appliance has been designed to operate using untreated tap water.
However, it is necessary to operate the Self-Clean function regularly in order
to eliminate hard water deposits from the steam chamber.
• Heat concentrates the elements contained in water during evaporation.The
types of water listed below contain organic waste or mineral elements that
can cause spitting, brown staining, or premature wear of the appliance: water
from clothes dryers, scented or softened water, water from refrigerators,
batteries or air conditioners, pure distilled or demineralised water or rain
water should not be used in your Tefal iron.
Fill the tank up to the
"MAX".
Never fill the
appliance by holding
it directly under the
tap.

RECOMMENDATIONS
• Your iron heats up quickly: so begin by ironing fabrics that are ironed at low tempe-
ratures first, then go on to those requiring a higher temperature,
• If you turn down the thermostat, wait until the thermostat light comes back on be-
fore beginning to iron again,
• When ironing fabrics with mixed fibres, set the ironing temperature for the most de-
licate fibre. For delicate fabrics we recommend testing the fabric first on an incons-
picious place eg (inside the hem).
Make sure that there
is water in the tank
before using this
button.
Obtain more steam
• Press the Turbo button
• Wait a few seconds between each shot before pressing the Turbo button again..
Hold the iron a few
centimetres from the
fabric to avoid burning
delicate fabrics.
• Check that the Ultracord system is properly locked.
• Unplug your iron before filling it.
• Set the steam control to "0" – fig.1.
• Take the iron with one hand and tilt it slightly, with the nose of the soleplate
pointing down.
• To open the flap of the water tank, push the button – fig.2.
• Fill the tank up to the "MAX" line – fig.3.
• Close the flap of the water tank, until it clicks into place.
POSITION OF
THERMOSTAT CURSOR
• Whether steam or dry ironing, you are able to use the spray button to dampen
laundry to remove stubborn creases –
fig.7.
from time to time –
• Hang the garment on a hanger and hold the fabric slightly taut with one hand.
The steam is very hot, so you should always do this with the garment on a hanger
– never iron clothes which someone is wearing.
