Kambrook Recommends Safety First IMPORTANT: Please retain your instruction book for future use. At Kambrook, we believe that safe performance is the first priority in any consumer product, so that you, our valued customer can confidently use and trust our products. We ask that any electrical appliance that you use be operated in a sensible fashion with due care and attention placed on the following important operating instructions.
• Always test the iron on a small, discreet part of the fabric to be ironed to ensure the temperature is not set too high. • Always store the iron in the upright position on its heel. Do not leave the iron unattended while connected or on an ironing board. • Do not use outdoors or in bathrooms. • Do not store the iron with water in the water tank. Always empty the tank after use. Ensure the iron is cool before storing or wrapping the cord around the storage heel facility.

Operating Instructions Before First Use Remove any promotional material or packaging from the iron. Remove any sticker or protective cover from the soleplate. When operating the iron for the first time, iron on an old piece of fabric to ensure that the soleplate and water tank are completely clean. NOTE: As an important part of our quality control process, your iron has been individually tested. As a result, you may notice a small amount of condensation or water droplets on the inside of the water tank.
Operating Instructions continued Stand the iron on its heel and turn the Temperature Control to MIN. Plug the power cord into a 230V or 240V power outlet and switch on. Select the temperature setting required by rotating the Temperature Control dial so that the desired setting is aligned with the Temperature Indicator. The Heating Indicator light will illuminate while the irons heats to the selected temperature.
Important: If the iron is set to a low temperature on the temperature control (i.e. Synthetic or Silk) and also on any of the steam control settings, there may be leakage from the soleplate. This is due to the iron temperature not being high enough to vaporise the water and create steam. Therefore, ensure that the steam control is always set to correspond with the setting on the temperature control as seen in Table A (see section ‘Setting the Temperature’).
How To Use Shot Of Steam The shot of steam provides an extra burst of steam which is ideal for the removal of stubborn creases and wrinkles during STEAM or DRY ironing. Turn the Temperature Control to the hottest setting and wait until the heating indicator light goes out. Ensure the Steam Control corresponds to the setting on the Temperature Control. Lift the iron slightly above the surface of the fabric, press the Shot of Steam button down firmly and release it during ironing.
Anti Drip System The Kambrook DuraGlide™ Anodized Iron is equipped with an Anti-Drip System. The iron will automatically close the steam valve when the soleplate temperature is too low to produce steam. When this happens you will hear a click sound. It is safe and will not harm the performance of the iron. This is the reason the fine mist spray should be used when ironing delicate fabrics at low temperatures. The steam valve will open once the soleplate has reached the temperature required to create steam.
How To Use Shot Of Steam After Each Use • Set the steam selector to the DRY position and turn the Temperature Control to minimum (MIN). • Switch the power off at the power outlet and disconnect the power cord from the power outlet. • Open the water filling cap and (over a sink or bucket) invert the iron to empty the remaining water from the tank. • Stand the iron in an upright position and allow to cool.
Care and Cleaning To ensure your iron maintains optimum performance it is recommended that it be cleaned using the Self-Clean function to remove scale or impurities. • Set the steam selector to the MIN position. • Fill the water tank up to the maximum level (MAX) with the water cup supplied. • Set the Temperature Control to MAX (Linen) setting. • Place the iron in the upright position, insert the plug into the power outlet and switch the iron on.
