manual abstract
Move the steam control to steam position after approx. 1 minute. Plug in the iron and allow the iron to heat up again. Wait until the remaining water has evaporated. Unplug from the mains and allow the iron to fully cool down. USE 4 • Filling the water tank IMPORTANT Before filling the water tank, unplug the iron and set the steam control to dry position . Tilt the iron. Open the filling inlet (fig.6). Pour in water up to the max mark (fig.7). Close the filler inlet (fig.8) and return the iron to the horizontal. 5 • Setting the temperature Set the iron temperature to suit the type of material using the temperature control dial (fig.3). 5 Temperature control*: The temperature control light indicates that the soleplate is heating up. When the temperature control light goes off (fig.9), the set temperature is reached and you can begin ironing. Ironing label Fabric Temperature control Synthetic fibres, e.g. viscose, polyester… • Silk, wool •• Cotton, linen ••• Electronic temperature control*: The traffic lights tell you whether the soleplate is at the selected temperature (fig.10). YELLOW (pulse) The soleplate is still too cold for the selected material. GREEN The soleplate is at the right temperature for the selected material. RED (pulse) The soleplate is still too hot for the selected material. AUTO- OFF (blinking) The automatic electronic cut-out* is active. TIP Always spray starch onto the reverse side of the fabric to be ironed. IMPORTANT The iron takes longer to cool down than to heat up. We recommend that you start with fabrics to be ironed at a low temperature. For mixed fabrics set the temperature for the most delicate fabric. 6 • Dry ironing Set the variable steam control to (fig.11) and set the temperature to suit the type of material (care points •, ••, •••). * depending on model 6 7 • Steam ironing You can steam iron from temperature setting •• up. The steam quantity can be adjusted between Smooth Steam (soft steam . is at temperature setting •••. technical fault! 9 • Shot of Steam IMPORTANT Leave an interval of 4 seconds between each shot and wait until the flow of steam is finished before standing the iron on its heel. Press the shot of steam button steam and remove stubborn creases (fig.14). 10 • Vertical shot of steam (from temperature setting •• up) TIP Hold the iron 10 to 20 centimetres away from the garment to avoid burning delicate fabrics. Hold the iron to the vertical and press the shot of steam button (fig.15) to remove creases from suits, jackets, skirts, hanging curtains etc. IMPORTANT Never direct the steam at persons or animals! 11 • Spray Press the spray button to dampen stubborn creases (fig.16). 12 • Anti-Drip system* It prevents water escaping from the soleplate when the temperature is too low. * depending on model 7 13 • Automatic electronic 3-position shut off If, although switched on, the appliance is not moved, it will automatically switch off and the auto off light will blink after the following intervals (fig.17): -After 30 sec., if the iron is standing on the soleplate or lying on its side. -After 8 mins., if the iron is standing on its heel. AFTER USE 14 • Emptying Unplug the iron (fig.4), pour away remaining water (fig.18) and set steam control to . Open and close the steam control several times (fig.19) to prevent the drip hole into the steam chamber from furring or blocking up. 15 • Storing Allow the appliance to cool down before storing the iron standing on its heel (fig.20). IMPORTANT Do not wind the cord around the hot soleplate. Never store your iron placed down on the soleplate (fig.20). MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING IMPORTANT Unplug and allow the iron to fully cool down before maintenance and cleaning. 16 • Anti-scale system Your iron contains an anti-scale cartridge to reduce scale deposits. This considerably prolongs the operational life of your iron. The anti-scale cartridge is an integral part of the water tank and does not need to be replaced. IMPORTANT Do not use descaling agents, as these damage the lining of the steam chamber and so may impair the steam function. 17 • Self Clean function (prolongs the life of the iron) The Self Clean function flushes dirt and scale particles out of the steam chamber. Fill the water tank with tap water up to the max mark and heat the iron to the ••• temperature. Unplug the iron and hold it over a sink horizontally. Hold the steam control into the Self 8 Clean position (fig.5) : steam will now begin to build up. After a few seconds water will merge from the soleplate, rinsing dirt and scale particles out of the steam chamber. Move the steam control to position after approx. 1 minute. Plug in the iron and allow the iron to heat up again. Wait until the remaining water has evaporated. Unplug from the mains and allow the iron to fully cool down. When cool, the soleplate can be wiped with a damp cloth. TIP Use the Self Clean function approx. every 2 weeks. If the water is very hard, clean the iron weekly. 18 • Cleaning the iron When...
