PRIOR TO FIRST USE

• Ensure that all stickers and labels have been removed from the soleplate (6).
• Some parts of the appliance were oiled during manufacture and these will therefore smoke slightly when the iron is first used. This is not dangerous. Allow the appliance to heat up and iron a piece of damp cloth until the soleplate is completely clean.
• The first few shots of steam should not be directed towards clothing, as the steam may contain material particles left over from the production process.

• Read any ironing instructions on the garment. As a rule, there will be a pictogram of an iron and a number of dots. These dots indicate the setting that should be selected on the iron (see table below).
• If there are no ironing instructions on the garment, but you know what fabric it is made of, the table below can be used. The table only applies to the relevant material and is for guidance only.

Symbol	Fabric Temperature
	Synthetic materials	Low
	Silk, wool Medium
	Cotton, linen	High
	Do not iron

- Garments with printed and sewn-on features are best ironed on the reverse of the material at low temperature.

- For fabrics made of several different materials, you should always adjust the temperature to suit the material that can tolerate the least heat. If, for instance, a product consists of 60% polyester and 40% cotton, adjust the temperature of the appliance for ironing polyester.

- Sort the items to be ironed according to the temperature at which they are to be ironed.

- The iron will get hot quicker than it cools down. Therefore always start with garments to be ironed at the lowest temperature.

REFILLING THE WATER

Note! This appliance has a built-in maintenance free anti-calc filter system. Only fill the water reservoir with tap water. If you fill the water reservoir with distilled/demineralised water, chemical additives, scented substances or decalcifiers, the anti-calc system will be damaged.

• Unplug the appliance.
• Set the steam adjustment button (3) to position 0.
• Open the cover on the nozzle (2) and carefully fill with tap water until the water level has reached the MAX mark on the side of the iron. Never fill past this mark. Never use chemically distilled water.
• The appliance can hold approx. 350 ml of water.
• Close the cover.
  • Always pour the excess water away after use.

USE

Dry ironing

• The appliance can be used for dry ironing, even if there is water in the water reservoir.
• Set the steam adjustment button (3) to position 0.
• Turn the thermostat (8) to the required temperature setting. The indicator light will come on red.
• Once the indicator light turns yellow, the required temperature has been reached and you can start to dry iron.

UK

- Do not fill the appliance with water if it is to be used as a dry iron for a prolonged period.

Steam ironing

• The appliance can be used for steam ironing when the thermostat is turned to the highest temperature range.
• Fill with water. Turn the thermostat (8) to the required temperature setting. The indicator light will come on red.
• Once the indicator light turns yellow, the required temperature has been reached and you can start to steam iron.
• Set the steam adjustment button to a position between MIN and MAX.
• The steam shot function for smoothing out stubborn creases can only be used when the thermostat is turned to the maximum setting (MAX). Press the steam shot button (5) to spray steam onto the garment through the holes on the soleplate. Wait a few seconds before the next steam shot. You can also hold the appliance vertical to give hanging curtains, clothing on hangers, etc. a shot of steam.

Water spray

- Press the water spray button (4) to spray water out of the nozzle (1) on the front of the appliance. Please note that you may have to press the button a few times to get it to work.

Self-cleaning function

The steam iron must be cleaned at regular intervals, depending on the hardness of the water and how often the appliance is used.

• Fill with water to the MAX mark.

• Set the steam adjustment button (3) to position 0.

• Turn the thermostat to the highest setting (MAX).

• Plug the appliance in and allow it to heat up until the indicator light goes out.
• Remove the plug from the socket.
• Hold the iron horizontally over a sink.
• Hold the self-clean button (7) down. Boiling water and steam will be emitted from the soleplate, washing out all the limescale deposits. Move the iron back and forwards over the sink at the same time.
• Release the self-clean button once the water reservoir is empty.
• Allow to cool down before putting it away.

AUTOMATIC SHUT-OFF

• An automatic shut-off device trips after the iron has been left for approx. eight minutes in the upright position or unused for approx. thirty seconds in the horizontal position. The indicator light flashes yellow in this case.
• Move the appliance to turn the appliance on again.

CLEANING

• Make sure the product unplug before cleaning.
• Press the steam button a few times and carefully shake after use to ensure there is no more water in the appliance.
• Wipe the soleplate with a damp cloth while it is still lukewarm. The outside of the appliance can be wiped down with a well-wrung cloth.

STORAGE

• Empty the appliance of water before storing it. Open the cover and hold the appliance with the nozzle facing down so all the water runs out. Press the spray button a few times to empty the water reservoir completely.
• Store the appliance in an upright position so that the soleplate is not touching anything.
