PRIOR TO FIRST USE
• Remove the protective film from
the soleplate (2).
• Heat to maximum temperature and
run over a damp cloth or similar
for a few minutes before using on
clothes.
• Some parts of the appliance 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 appliance has
been used a few times.
USE
Filling with water (only for steam
ironing)
• Disconnect from mains and
turn the thermostat dial (0) to
MIN (if the appliance has been
connected).
• Remove water reservoir filler cover
(2) (see picture), and fill water to
the MAX mark ().
• Close the water reservoir cover.
Setting the temperature
• Push function button () to b. (see
illustration below).
• Select the required iron
temperature using the temperature
control dial:
Setting Temperature Use
•
80-20 ºC Synthetic fabrics
(nylon, polyester,
acrylic, etc.)
•• 20-60 ºC Wool, silk
or blends
••• 60-205 ºC Cotton or linen
• Stand appliance upright. Plug in
and switch the power on.
o The orange thermostat lamp (9) will
light and the display (6) will show
current temperature.
• Do not start ironing until the
thermostat light (9) goes out.
o The thermostat light switches
on and off during ironing, as
the thermostat regulates the
temperature of the appliance.
o If you turn the temperature up
using the temperature control dial
the thermostat lamp will light. Do
not continue ironing until it goes
out.
Steam ironing
Steam ironing is only possible at
high temperatures. Do not use steam
ironing when the temperature control
dial is at position •. If you do, water
runs out from the soleplate, because
the appliance is not hot enough to
convert all water to steam.
• Check that there is sufficient water
in the reservoir.
• Turn the thermostat button the
required position (at least •• ), and
wait until the light goes out.
• Push the function selector
backwards or forwards to select
steam setting (see picture). You
can choose between the following
settings:
a. Automatic
cleaning (see
‘Cleaning’
section)
b. No steam
(not visible on
picture)
c. Minimum
steam
d. Maximum steam
The appliance produces
continuous steam from the
soleplate at settings c. and d. Start
steam ironing.
o Push the function selector to
setting b to switch to dry ironing.
Spray function
This function moistens the item you
are ironing when you want to remove
creases.
• Press the spray button (5). The
appliance pumps spray from the
spray nozzle ().
Dry ironing
Dry ironing uses the same method
as steam, but the function selector
should be in position b.
Steam shot function
The steam shot function can be used
to remove dirt or folds from hanging
clothes, curtains etc.
• Set the function selector to
maximum steam (setting d.).
• Hold the appliance vertical close to
the material to be ironed and press
the steam shot button (4).
