CAUTION - Danger of Scalding! The water tank cap must not be opened during use.
The device must be placed down on a stable, water-resistant and heat-resistant surface. Do not turn the hot device upside down or place it on its side. Hot water could run out.
- Only use the device in places where heat and moisture cannot cause any damage. Never use in front of surfaces made from glass or plastic.
Before using the device, read the care instructions for the fabric which is to be smoothed. Some fabrics, leather and suede as well as fabrics with flounces, sequins and appliqués must not be steamed!
Always test the device first on a small, inconspicuous spot on the clothing.
Do not iron over zips, studs, clips etc. to prevent any scratching of the steam bottom.
Never use the device without water to prevent damage to the device!

1. Hang up the hanger containing the item of clothing in such a way that there is plenty of space around the item of clothing which is to be smoothed. It must not come into contact with other items of clothing, objects, people or animals.
2. Attach the attachment you want (see the "Attaching / Detaching Attachments" chapter).
3. Pour water into the water tank (C) (see the "Filling the Water Tank" chapter).

17 EN

1. Insert the water tank into the holder for the water tank (7). Insert it so that the marking on the device points towards the position on the water tank. Turn the water tank clockwise so that the marking points towards the position. The water tank is now fixed in the holder (Picture B).
2. Plug the mains plug into a properly installed plug socket that is easily accessible.
3. Press the button (2). The red control lamp (4) flashes and the device starts to heat up. When the control lamp is permanently lit, the device is ready for use.

1. Move the attachment or the steam bottom (1) in strokes over the fabric. The device emits steam continuously. It is important for the attachment to touch the fabric so that it is smoothed.
2. During prolonged use the device switches to standby mode after approx. 10 minutes. By pressing the button again, steam can be generated again.
3. After use or if there are lengthy pauses, switch off the device by pressing the button for approx. 3 seconds. If the device is in standby mode for more than 30 minute, it will switch off automatically.
4. Remove the mains plug from the plug socket.

Tips on Use

• Delicate items of clothing should always be steamed inside out.
• Trousers are easier to smooth if they are hung up by the trouser legs.
• The device without an attachment is suitable for freshening up items of clothing such as blouses, shirts (e.g. made of cotton or similar materials) or for curtains.
• The brush attachment (E) is suitable for freshening up home textiles such as upholstery, curtains and similar items (Picture C).
• The fibre brush attachment (F) can be used to smooth and freshen up items of clothing made from cotton, silk etc. as well as finer fabrics (Picture D).
• The device can be folded up to make it easier to store or to transport it. To do this, press the release button (6) and twist the handle (5) anticlockwise (Picture E). PLEASE NOTE: The water tank (C) must not be mounted on the device.

Turn the handle clockwise before using it again. The release button is automatically released and reverts back to its starting position.

• If the water tank should not be available, e.g. when travelling, the device can also be used with the adapter (D) and a standard bottle with a screw cap:

• Guide the adapter into a bottle filled with water and turn it clockwise to secure it in place.

EN 18

• Insert the adapter into the holder (7) so that the marking on the device points towards the position on the adapter. Turn the adapter clockwise so that the marking on the device points towards the position on the adapter. The adapter is now fixed in the holder (Picture F).

-Use the device in the manner described in the "Use" chapter.

Cleaning and Storage

PLEASE NOTE!

• Do not use any caustic or abrasive cleaning agents to clean the device. These may damage the surface.

• Make sure that the mains plug has been pulled out of the plug socket.

• Place the device on a water-resistant and heat-resistant surface and allow it to cool down completely.
• Detach the water tank (C) from the device by turning it anticlockwise so that the marking on the device points towards the position on the water tank.
• Pull the water tank cap out of the water tank and allow any remaining water to run out of the water tank.
• Insert the water tank again (see the "Use" chapter) and operate the device again for a short time in order to allow any remaining amounts of water to evaporate.
• If necessary, brush fluff and other contamination off the attachments. The attachments can also be rinsed with water. Then allow them to dry thoroughly.
• If necessary, wipe down the outside of the device with a soft, slightly damp cloth and then dry it with a soft cloth.
