When you first turn it on does the temperature go all the way up and then drops according to type of fabric or what?
That might be too late if I start ironing something requiring low temp.
How do you know that temp is ready to iron?
Thanks

Just turn it on and you're good to go. It really is that simple. I went from a silky top to denim jeans without stopping and it was amazing. I took that chance mind you because the top had grease stains on it from cooking :( There are lots of youtube videos on it if you want to check them out. I found out that I could adjust the steam on it by watching youtube. The first time I turned it on the steam was pouring out and I had to refill it two or three times. I thought it was faulty. Then I checked out a couple of videos and found that I could adjust it and it's perfect now. I really do love this iron. I'm not sorry I bought it.

By the way. I noticed you asked the question on the 16th. Please don’t think I was slack and didn’t bother answering till the 20th. I have literally just received it tonight.

My brand new Tegal Smart Protect FV4970 iron spits and sputters quite violently each time I turn it on. I am filling it with distilled water to the required level. Is this normal? Thanks Carmel

Can't agree, Don. When the tank is almost empty, it still tends to spit.

Hi Carmel, my Tefal iron has not behaved in this way . I woulld think may be one of your settings may not be working correctly or you may have a faulty iron. Return to store of contact the Manufactor.

How did you go with this Carmel? I find mine to be very noisy regardless of water level. Also sounds like it spitting as it releases lots of steam when I stand it back up. Not sure if this is right.

You may have over filed the water level. I had the same problem till I realised there is a water level you fill to. Hope this is of help to Jack.
