3000W CeraGlide Turbo Iron
1912 Midland Metal Spinners was founded by George Cadman, who was then 65 years old, as a metal holloware manufacturing company, in St. Mark’s Street, Wolverhampton. They later moved into the Tower and Fort Works in Pelham Street, which ultimately gave rise to the famous Tower brand name.
1961 Tower became one of the largest manufacturers of aluminium holloware, electric kettles, tea pots and other household articles with over 1,000 employees. 1974 Russell Hobbs took ownership of the expanding Tower brand.
1937 Tower exhibited some of their latest holloware designs at the British Industries Fair. As you can see from the original poster, their stand No. A410 must have been a great sight as it promoted their “Beautiful, inexpensive, untarnishable Plate, at prices all can afford to pay”.
30% Faster Ironing The Tower Ceraglide Turbo Steam Iron will help you tackle the ironing with its anti-drip feature and variable temperature control. 3000W Turbo power combined with advanced Ceraglide technology means 30% faster ironing.

If you set the temperature control to a lower setting after ironing at a high temperature, please allow time for the iron to cool. This is to prevent scorching on your garment. Spray Function Press the spray button at any time to spray water on clothes, as often as required.
2. As per the washing label instructions on the item of clothing, select the required temperature and begin ironing. Steam Ironing 1. Ensure that there is enough water in the water tank. 2.

Safety and Instruction Manual
Vertical Steam The Iron is fitted with a vertical steam function. This enables you to remove creases from hanging clothes, wall hangings or curtains. Hold the Iron vertically and direct it towards the fabric and press the stream burst button.
4. To prevent water dripping from the soleplate in the horizontal resting position, set the steam control dial to position 0 or stand the iron on its end if the appliance is left unattended for a while.
Warning: Ensure that the steam is not directed towards yourself or other people. The ejected steam is hot and therefore hazardous.
Ironing tips •
Always check first whether a label with ironing instructions is attached to the article.
Anti-Calc function
•
The iron heats up quicker than it cools down, therefore, you should start ironing the articles requiring the lowest temperature such as those made of synthetic fibres.
The resin filter is permanent and does not need replacing. However if you live in a particularly hard water area, we recommend using bottled or distilled water.
•
If the fabric consists of various kinds of fibres, you must always select the lowest ironing temperature to iron the composition of those fibres.
Warning: never pour vinegar or other liquid cleaners for eliminating calcium into water tank.
•
Silk and other fabrics that are likely to become shiny should be ironed on the inner side.
Anti-drip function
•
Velvet and other textures that rapidly become shiny should be ironed in one direction with light pressure applied. Always keep the iron moving at any given moment.
•
Pure woollen fabrics (100% wool) may be ironed with the iron set a steam position. Preferably set steam button to the maximum position and use a dry cloth as a mat.
A special resin filter inside the water reservoir softens hard water and prevents scale build-up in the plate.
With a bimetal assembled inside the iron, which closes the steam when the iron soleplate becomes very low, so water leakage will never happen with this features. Automatic safety shut-off 1. The iron has an electronic safety device which switches off the heating element automatically if the iron is left motionless. 2. The iron will shut off after 30 seconds in a horizontal position or 8 minutes in a vertical position.
Note: when ironing woollen fabrics, shining of the fabric may occur. So it is suggested that you should turn the article inside out and iron the reverse side.
3. Pick up the iron or move it lightly to heat it up again. The indicator light will come on. When the indicator light is off, the iron is ready for use.
