TECHNICAL INFORMATION

Water Advice

Suitable for tap water use. Advice to mix with equal portion
of distilled water or use only distilled water if the tap water is
very hard.

Self Clean

When the self clean button is pressed, a sudden release of
water into the soleplate loosen scale particles by thermal
shock. These particles are then fl ushed out through the steam
vents by the water.

Careeza Soleplate

Careeza is a multi-layer chemical substance that gives an
excellent gliding effect and better care for the garment.

Vertical Steam

When the iron is kept in a vertical position, the SOS button
can be used to iron hanging fabrics such as curtains.

Anti Drip

Water is only released into steam chamber via the tank
valve when the soleplate temperature is high enough. If the
temperature is too low, the tank valve is closed by means of a
bi-metal disc.

Auto-Shut-Off

The power to the heating element is cut off when the iron has
been motionless. The “Auto-Off” pilot light starts blinking.
When the iron is moved, it is automatically switched on.
