Water advice
Suitable for tap water use. However if the tap water in your
area is very hard, we advise you to mix it with a equal portion
of distilled water or to use distilled water only.
Vertical Steam
When the iron is kept in a vertical position, the shot of steam
(S.O.S) button can be used to iron hanging fabrics such as
curtains.
Vario steam
The vario steam function allows user to have control over the
steam rate and this prevent over moisturising the cloth.

within the safe or ‘no danger zone’.
