rich experience, we produce and sell the most reliable and user-friendly irons
for our customers all. over the world. Before you enjoy our great product,
please ensure that basic safety precautions be followed and all instructions be
read carefully.
    41 Filling the reservoir
    Your iron is designed to function using tap water. However, it will last
longer if you use distilled water.
    42 Temperature and steam control
    Your Moulex iron has two buttons which control the intensity of heat
produced by the iron. You can, therefore, adjust the temperature of the iron and
the amount of steam being given off depending upon the type of fabric being
ironed.
    - Turn the steam control to the desired intensity.
    - Turn the thermostat control to the desired temperature.
    43 Pressing button
    Important: Do not use this more than five successive times.
    44 Suits crease erasing
    It is possible to use this iron in a vertical position so that you can
remove creases from clothes on coathangers or from curtains. Turning the
thermostat control and the steam button to maximum, hold the iron in a vertical
position close to the fabric but without touching it. Hold down the pressing
button for a maximum of one seconds. The steam produced is not always visible
but is still able to remove creases.
    45 Auto-clean
    In order that your iron does not become furred up, Moulex have integrated
an auto-clean system and we advise you to use it very regularly (1-2 times per
month.)
    [A] Turn the steam control to the off position.
    Fill the reservoir and turn the thermostat control to maximum.
    As soon as the indicator light goes out, unplug the iron and, holding it
over the sink, turn the steam control to auto-clean. Any calcium deposits will
be washed out by the steam. Continue the procedure until the reservoir is
empty.
    If your iron produces droplets of water instead of giving off steam, your
temperature control is set too low.
    [C] Always unplug the iron before filling the reservoir.
    Always empty the reservoir after use.
    [D] This button activates a super shot of steam which momentarily gives you
an additional 40g of steam, when needed.
    [E] This button activates a jet of cold water which allows you to iron out
any unintentional creases. Press the button for one second.
    [F] Hold the iron at a sufficient distance from silk and wool to avoid all
risk of scorching. Do not attempt to remove creases from an item of clothing
that is being worn, always use a coathanger.
