PRIOR TO FIRST USE

Remove the protective film from the
soleplate (7).
Some parts of the steam iron were
oiled during manufacture and these
will therefore smoke slightly when the
iron is first used. This is entirely safe,
and the smoke will disappear once the
steam iron has been used a few times.
Test it on a piece of material or similar
before using it on clothes.
USE
Filling with water (for steam ironing)
Make sure that the steam iron is
unplugged from the electrical outlet.
Make sure that the steam button +
temperature button is in position MIN
before filling with water.
Fill water in the water tank through the
water tank lid, until the water reached
the max mark indicated on the side of
the iron. Never fill above this mark.
Pour out the remaining water after use.
Do not use chemically descaled water.
Setting the temperature
Select the required iron temperature
using the thermostat knob:
Nylon
Wool, silk
Cotton or linen
Place the steam iron on its end, so it
stands upright. Plug in and switch the
power on.
Do not start ironing until the indicator
light (5) goes out. The indicator light
switches on and off during ironing,
as the thermostat regulates the
temperature of the steam iron.
If you turn the temperature up using
the thermostat button, you should not
start to iron until the indicator light
goes out.

Dry ironing

selection knob must be in position 0.
Tips!
Always stand the iron upright if you
take a break from ironing!
Always iron synthetic fabrics and silk
on the reverse. This avoids shiny spots
on the fabric.
Wool products (100% wool) may be
pressed when the steam iron is set to
steam position. We recommend using
the setting for maximum steam, with a
layer of dry fabric between the steam
iron and the item to be ironed.
