You are advised to spend 20 minutes on Questions 1-14. First, read the text below and answer Questions 1-8.

1. A  Filling the reservoir
   Your iron is designed to function using tap water. However, it will last longer if you use distilled water.
   -- Always unplug the iron before filling the reservoir.
   -- Always empty the reservoir after use.
2. 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.
   Important: If your iron produces droplets of water instead of giving off steam, your temperature control is set too low.
3. C  Spray button
   This button activates a jet of cold water which allows you to iron out any unintentional creases. Press the button for one second.
4. D Pressing button
   This button activates a super shot of steam which momentarily gives you an additional 40g of steam when needed.
   Important: Do not use this more than five successive times.
5. E  Suits etc.
   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 second. The steam produced is not always visible but is still able to remove creases.

Important: 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.

1. F  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).
   -- 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.
