Dry Ironing
• Set the iron to the desired temperature and wait for the pilot light
to go out. Do not press the Steam Trigger.
• Dry ironing can be carried out at any temperature setting. When
dry ironing at high temperature settings take care not to scorch
the fabric.
• There should be sucient water in the tank whether you are dry or
steam ironing.
Auto Switch-O
If the iron is operated without steam for 10 minutes (or is left idle for
10 minutes) the iron will turn o automatically. This is a safety feature.
Ironing Temperatures and Hints
• Check the ironing instructions attached to the article (they are on
a label showing a symbol of an iron). Always follow these ironing
instructions. The indications on the iron’s temperature dial and the
table below will help you.
• If there are no ironing instructions but you know the fabric, then
use the table below. The table is valid only for the actual materials and does not take account of any nish applied to the fabric.
Textiles to which a nish has been applied (wrinkle relief, printed T
shirts etc.) should be ironed at lower temperatures.
• If the fabric contains mixed bres, select the lowest ironing temperature of the composition, e.g. iron a 60% polyester /40% cotton
mix at the temperature indicated for polyester.
Do not iron
Synthetics. Set Iron to LOW ( • )
Wool, Silk. Set Iron to MEDIUM ( • • )
Cotton, Linen. Set Iron to HIGH ( • • • )
• The iron heats up quicker than it cools down. Sort fabrics to be
ironed into groups according to temperature; wool with wool, cotton with cotton, etc. Start by ironing articles requiring low temperature settings and progress to higher ones.
• Note: Do not iron garments that are dirty or stained. The iron’s heat
may set the stain.
• Pure (100%) wool fabrics may be pressed by dry ironing with the
iron set to a steam position and the garment protected by a dry
cloth. To avoid giving wool garments a “shine” you can turn the
garment inside out and iron it on the “wrong” side.
• During Ironing: In between operations always stand the iron on its
heel or on the steam station rest. NEVER leave the iron face down.

Vertical Steam
• Select the Steam level and wait for the selector to stop ashing.
• Set the iron to its highest temperature and wait for the pilot light
to go out.
• Set the iron vertical. Hold the iron away from you and 15 – 30 centimetres from the garment.
• Press the Steam Button for a few seconds. Steam will penetrate
into the garment removing the wrinkles.
• For stubborn wrinkles: Wait a few seconds. Repeat the procedure.
Most wrinkles can be removed within three presses.
• Warning: DO NOT allow anyone to come near you during this process. NEVER allow steam to get anywhere near your body or clothing or apply steam to clothes or fabrics that are being worn by
humans or pets. DANGER OF SCALDING.
• Hold the iron facing away from you at all times.
• DO NOT OVERREACH or operate the iron while standing on a ladder etc.
• Make sure that the power cord and the iron cords remain slack and
that there is no danger of overturning the steam station base.

water in the tank when the appliance is not in use.
Care and Cleaning
Unplug the unit from the mains and allow it to cool down fully.
Cleaning: To remove deposits from the soleplate, apply a small amount
of mild cleaner to a damp cloth, forming a paste on the cloth. Gently rub
the soleplate, then wipe with a moist cloth. The body of the iron and the
steam station base may be cleaned with a barely damp cloth and then
dried thoroughly. Do not wet the appliance body, cord or mains plug.
A very small amount of water may accumulate under the appliance from
the drain hole in the base (see P. 3). If this occurs wipe it up with a cloth.
CAUTION: Never use scouring pads, abrasives or harsh cleaners on any
part of the appliance or the iron soleplate.
Storage: When not in use the appliance should be securely stored out
of the reach of children. Store the iron on the rest with the cord loosely
looped. You can use the clip on the side to retain excess cord. DO NOT
wind the cord tightly around the appliance. If the cord has become
kinked during use, straighten it out.
Do NOT store the iron face down on any hard surface or you may damage
the nish on the soleplate.
Anti-Calc Filter: Your appliance is equipped with an anti-calc lter. As a
result, you can use tap water as it will be ltered by the cartridge.
It is necessary to replace the cartridge approximately every 3-6 months
depending on the frequency of use and the hardness of the water in your
area. If the water contains high lenels of scale, you will have to replace the
cartridge more frequently. You can delay the replacement of the cartridge
by using demineralized water or a mixture of 50% tap water and 50% distilled water to ll the water tank.
When you put a new anti-calc cartridge in the appliance, immerse it in
water for two minutes before inserting it in the appliance.
To buy a new cartridge: please contact your supplying Tesco store or
navigate to the steam station model number (IRSG2416) on the Tesco
website www.tesco.com/direct and follow the instructions.
