5. Normal or cable-free

ironing The steam iron can be operated cable-free. This makes the steam iron a little lighter, and the cable is no longer in the way during iron- ing. As soon as the steam iron is replaced on the stand|7, the sole plate is heated up again. The temperature control lamp|14 lights up until the set temperature is reached. Settings on the stand The switch|11 on the stand|7 allows you to choose between 2 options: = cable-free ironing = ironing with cable and Storage Cable-free ironing Figure A: lift the steam iron out upwards. The stand|7 will remain standing without the steam iron. Ironing with cable Figure B: raise the steam iron. The stand|7 will stay on the steam iron. NOTE:

• If you want to work with a great many bursts of steam in quick succession, ironing with the cable is recommended. This is bet- ter because the sole plate|

may fall be- low the set temperature faster than normal as a result of the many steam bursts. Storage Figure B: the steam iron is locked in place on the stand|7.
