• Synthetics, silk low temperature

4. Place the iron on its stand.

5. Electrical connection

• Make sure that the iron voltage (see name plate) and the line voltage match.

• Only connect the machine to a properly installed safety socket, 230 V/50 Hz.

6. Turn operating switch I (10) on the station to position 0 and move the steam regulator

(9) to MIN. Please ensure that operating switch II (11) is turned to position I. Operating switch II (11) lights up.

Steam Ironing For this a high temperature is needed.

(The control lamp (13) also lights up briefl y).

Move both operating switches (10/11) to position I. During operation the control lamp (12) shows whether there is enough steam available for steam operation. On = steam being produced Off = enough steam available,

Warning: The steam is hot! There is a danger of scalding!

You can set the desired quantity of steam with the steam regulator (9).
