1. Ensure that you have pulled out the mains plug 9.
2. Peel the protective foil off the sole plate 19.
3. Open the lid 2 (of the water tank).
4. Half-fill the water tank 15.
5. Insert the mains plug 9 into a wall socket corresponding to the technical data.
6. Set the temperature controller 16 to max.

The temperature control lamp 11 lights up.

1. When the device has reached the desired temperature (temperature control lamp 11 goes out), iron an old cotton cloth in steam mode (steam flow rate controller 3 on) until the water tank 15 is empty.

6. Operation

DANGER! The sole plate 19 becomes very hot during operation. Only touch the handle 7 and control elements of the steam iron during operation.

• Even during short interruptions, always place the steam iron upright and never on its sole plate 19. There is a fire hazard! - NOTE: you may notice an odour when using for the first time. This is a result of the manufacturing process and is not a defect with the device. Ensure adequate ventilation.

The sole plate 19 cools down slightly during ironing. In order to reach the set temperature again, the device heats the sole plate up again, during which the temperature control lamp 11 lights up. It goes out again when the set temperature has been reached. This process repeats itself during ironing.

6.1 Filling the water tank

DANGER! Pull the mains plug 9 out of the socket before you fill up the water tank 15.

Use clean tap water without any additives (e.g. vinegar, limescale remover, starch, perfume, softener).

1. Disconnect the mains plug 9 from the wall socket.
2. Turn the steam flow rate controller 3 left to 0.
3. Open the lid 2 (of the water tank) and hold the device at a slight angle to fill it.

The steam will...

... start to come out as soon as you hold the steam iron horizontal, and ... stop as soon as: - you hold the steam iron vertically, - the temperature is too low, - the water tank is empty or - you set the steam flow rate controller 3 to 0.

1. Finish ironing, set the temperature controller 16 to min, set the steam flow rate controller 3 to 0 and pull out the mains plug 9.
2. Allow the steam iron to cool down, and pour off any remaining water from the water tank 15 through the filling opening in the water tank (under the lid 2).

6.6 Steam burst function
