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.
• The iron incorporates a thermal safety fuse to protect the iron from over heating. However the iron and steam station should not be left unattended while it is connected to the power outlet. Special care should always be taken when there are children in the home/vicinity of the steam station. • Do not touch the iron rest when in use and just after use. Ensure the iron rest is cool before attempting to touch or prior to storing the steam station.

Operating Your Kambrook Steam Station Before First Use Remove any sticker or protective cover from the soleplate. When operating the steam station for the first time, iron on an old piece of fabric to ensure that the soleplate and water tank are completely clean. NOTE: To avoid an electrical circuit overload, it is recommended that no other appliances are plugged into the same circuit as your steam station when it is in use.
Operating Your Kambrook Steam Station continued Setting the Temperature Before commencing ironing, first sort the items to be ironed according to the International Textile Care Labelling Code or by the type of fabric. Iron fabrics that require the lowest temperatures first. Work through to the fabrics requiring higher temperatures. Both the Temperature Control and most items of laundry have markings corresponding with this code (see Table A).
To Operate Your Kambrook Steam Station • • Remove the water tank from the steam station base by grasping the handle at the front of the water tank and pulling forward until the tank clears the base. Pull upwards on the anti-scale filter cartridge fitted to the top of the water tank to remove. Fill the water tank with normal tap water; do not exceed the MAX water level marking on the tank. NOTE: Your steam station is designed to work with untreated tap water.
Operating Your Kambrook Steam Station continued Continuous Steam Ironing • warning: To extend the life of the pump on your Steam Station, do not operate the steam function for more than 10 minutes continuously. • Before first use, it is recommended to allow the iron to steam for about one minute (the time that it takes the pump to start and the first bursts of steam to emit from the iron) before placing the iron on your garment.
