Check prior to every use!
When putting the device into operation, make sure that the steam function is deactiva-
ted. The steam button may not be pressed in and the steam control indicator has to be
off, after connection the device to a plug socket! Activate the steam function not until the
device has reached operating temperature. The device has reached operating tempera-
ture, when temperature indicator switches off after the heating process. Water may exit,
when the steam function is activated during the heating process.
Use
CAUTION!
❐ Always compare the local voltage used on the mains power grid with the technical
data of the device. The device is designed for a mains voltage of 230 V~ 50 Hz.
❐ Never aim the steam directly at people, animals or plants. This can cause severe
scalding.
❐ Always switch off the steam function when you place the iron down in order to avoid
accidental injuries or material damage caused by emissions of steam.
❐ Never attempt to iron clothes while somebody is wearing them.
❐ Danger of injury! Only hold the device by the handle when you are operating it.
❐ Only iron on a stable, fl at, heat-resistant and moisture-resistant surface. We recom-
mend that you use a standard ironing board.
❐ Do not iron on surfaces made from glass or plastic.
❐ Always work with suffi cient lighting.
❐ Always test the device fi rst on a small, inconspicuous spot on the clothing.
❐ Never iron for too long on one spot to prevent damage to the clothing.
❐ Open the water reservoir cover only to fi ll the water reservoir. Otherwise keep the
cover closed while operating the iron.
❐ Place the device on an even, stable and heat-resistant surface during and shortly
after use. Always place the device upright on its base to prevent damage to the sur-
face which could be caused by the hot bottom section of the iron.
