Steam Ironing ( )
For this a high temperature is needed (cotton, linen).
The quantity of steam can be regulated using the steam quantity regulator (4).
O
no steam
Small steam volume
Medium steam volume
MAX
Large steam volume
Extra steam can be added with the steam jet function (3).
Caution: the steam is hot. Danger of scalding!
When ironing at low temperatures, make sure that you reduce the quantity of
steam or iron without steam. If the temperature is too low water may leak from
the soleplate. The appliance features an „anti-leakage function" which deactiva-
tes the steam mode if the temperature chosen is insuffi cient for steam operation.
Refi lling the water tank
•
Always disconnect the mains plug before refi lling water.
•
Set the steam control (4) to "O" (no steam). Open the lid of the refi ll inlet (6)
and carefully pour in the water. Do not exceed the maximum line as marked
on the water reservoir.
Spray Function ( )
In order to moisten a section to be ironed press the spray button (5).
Vertical Steam
This can be used to produce a jet of steam in a vertical direction.
Note: To avoid excess water leaking from the soleplate do not operate the steam
burst for more than 5 seconds without interruption.
Self-Cleaning (Self-Clean)
1. Half fi ll the water tank with water.
2. Heat the machine up to its maximum temperature. After the control lamp goes
off remove the machine from the mains supply.
3. Now hold the iron horizontally over a sink. Hold the steam control in the
„SELF CLEAN" position. Now rock the device backwards and forwards until
the tank is empty. The steam control automatically returns to position O.
4. Place the machine back on its stand and heat it up again. To clean the base
now iron over a clean cotton cloth.
