i Steam does not remove animal odours.		up to 1 Kg
Steam Dewrinkle (Dampf Glätten / Défroissage Vapeur) This programme helps to dewrinkle the laundry.
i Steam can be used for dried, washed or worn once laundry. These programmes can reduce creases and odours and make your laundry more smooth. Do not use any detergent. If necessary, remove stains by washing or using localized stain removal. Steam programmes do not perform any hygienic cycle.

1) If you set a Steam programme with dried laundry, at the end of the cycle the laundry feels humid. It is better to expose clothes to the fresh air for about 10 minutes to let the humidity dry. Laundry should be removed from the drum as quick as possible. After a steam cycle, clothes may be ironed anyway, but with less effort!
