• FILLING WITH WATER DURING IRONING
Caution! Always turn the appliance off and pull the power plug out of the socket be-
o
fore filling the boiler with water.
Should you need to refill the iron when ironing, please proceed as follows:
o
Set the switch (7) to "0."
§
Pull the power plug out of the socket.
§
Simply press the steam button (4) with your index finger up to the stop and re-
§
lease the steam pressure from inside.
Unscrew the safety cap (1) on the boiler. Use the cap screw provided (3) to fa-
§
cilitate its removal. The cap screw provides for a better grip on the safety cap
and protects you from inadvertent burns.
Pour a small amount of water into the boiler 2 or 3 times to release the steam
§
in the boiler. Next refill the boiler as normal.
Bear in mind that you never fill the iron with more than 300 cm3 of water, i.e. the
o
amount stipulated on the measuring cup. To ensure that the stipulated water vol-
ume is not exceeded, the iron must first be emptied before it is refilled.
Completely retighten the safety cap.
§
Plug the power plug back into the socket.
§
Steam will be generated within a short time.

• TIPS
You should iron pure woollen fabrics, silk and synthetics either on their reverse
o
sides or vertically to prevent shine marks on the materials. For other fabrics, partic-
ularly velvet, you can prevent shine marks by ironing in a single direction (with a
cloth), and applying slight pressure. Make sure you are constantly moving the iron
over the material being ironed.
Straight items: Lay the garment on the ironing board as normal. Simply press the
o
steam button with your index finger for as long as you see creases. When there are
no more creases, run the iron over it again until it has dried. If you have folded the
garment over, then first use the super steam (press the steam button), and then
iron it until it is completely dry.
Tucked sleeves (puffed sleeves): Place the iron in a vertical position. Hang the
o
tucked sleeve at its seam over the tip of the iron. Press the steam button until the
sleeve is wrinkle-free.
Never hold your other hand in front of the appliance, as the steam emitted is very
o
hot!
How to iron trousers: Position the trouser leg onto the ironing board. Iron in a
o
crease line. Lift the appliance when you reach the seams and steam them. Vertically
steam the upper part.
