control lamp fl ashes until the device has reached operating temperature. As soon as the

Automatic Steam Feature
To benefi t the environment, the device has an energy-saving mode which switches off the
steam function when the device has not been moved for around 3 seconds (provided the steam
function has been switched on previously by pressing a steam button).
•
If the device has not been moved for around 3 seconds, the steam function is automatically
switched off. This ensures lower power consumption and less water consumption.
•
The steam function automatically switches on again when the device is moved.
Limescale Filter
The compact iron station has a resin fi lter which captures limescale particles present in the
water and prevents them from getting into the steam chamber and the steam lines. To ensure
that your device can be used for a long time, we also recommend that you use distilled water.
