Warnings for the Use of the Appliance

WARNING: Risk of Burns!

• There is a risk of burns from the continuously escaping steam!
• Always hang the steam nozzle in the holder when it is not in use. This will prevent injuries or damage to surfaces caused by escaping steam.
• Do not touch hot surfaces! Wait until the appliance has cooled down before replacing accessories.
• The appliance emits a large amount of hot steam. Never aim the steam jet at people or animals.
• Do not use on items of clothing if they are worn on the body.
• To ensure an unobstructed flow of steam, always extend the telescopic rods fully. If the steam hose is kinked, an audible bubbling sound is produced. The hot water is forced back into the water tank and overflows.

CAUTION:

• The appliance must be set up and operated on a level and stable surface.
• Only use distilled water!
• Only operate the appliance with a full water tank.
• The appliance shall not be used for cleaning electrical appliances or systems.
• Do not carry or lift the appliance by the mounted telescopic rods.

Connected Load

The appliance has a total power consumption of 1580 W. Do not use a multiple socket as this appliance is too powerful.

Notes for Use

Unpacking

• Remove any protective film and stickers from the steam nozzle.
• Unwind the power cable completely.

Location of the Base

Make sure that the handpiece (nozzle) is always higher than the base. Otherwise, water can build up in the steam hose, which can lead to water droplets on the fabric.

- The steam output will be noticeably reduced. In this case, hold the steam nozzle higher for 2 – 3 seconds to solve the problem.

Water

Only use distilled water!

Battery water, water from the tumble dryer and water with additives (such as starch, perfume, fabric softener or other chemicals) should not be poured into the water tank.

This could damage the appliance as residues could form in the steam chamber. These residues can contaminate the ironed items when they fall out through the steam outlet openings.

Electrical Connection

• Make sure that the appliance voltage (see rating plate) and the mains voltage match.
- Only connect the mains plug with a correctly installed earthed socket.

Ending Operation

1. Hang the nozzle in the holder.
2. Switch the appliance off with the ⏻ button. The display goes out.
3. Then disconnect the mains plug from the socket.

Mounting the Appliance

Please refer to the illustrations on page 4.

1. Place the appliance on a level and stable surface. Preferably on the floor.
2. Release the clamps and pull the telescopic rods completely apart. Secure the telescopic rods by closing the clamps again.
3. Important! To ensure an unobstructed flow of steam, always extend the telescopic rods fully.
4. Insert the telescopic rods into the base with slight pressure as far as they will go.
5. Check that the telescopic rods are locked into place.
6. Insert the hanger holder into the recess on the ironing board.
7. The holder for the nozzle can be attached to the back of the ironing board. Optionally on the right or left.
8. Attach the ironing board to the telescopic rods.
9. If necessary, the angle of the ironing board can be adjusted. To do this, press the lever on the back of the ironing board. There are three tilt settings: vertical, 45° and horizontal. The ironing board locks into the selected position.
10. Always hang the steam nozzle in the holder when it is not in use. This prevents injury or damage to surfaces caused by escaping steam.

Brush Attachment

• Place the brush attachment on the metal hook located at the lower end of the brush nozzle.
• To remove the brush attachment, pull it off the metal hook.

Operation

Filling the Water Tank

Always disconnect the appliance from the power supply before filling the water tank.

1. Pull the water tank out of the base at the back.

2. Unscrew the closure at the bottom of the water tank by turning it anti-clockwise.

3. Fill the water tank with water up to the mark.
4. Close the water tank with the closure and screw it on hand-tight. Dry all sides of the water tank before inserting it.
5. Push the water tank back into the base.

Steam Level Button (€)

Press this button several times to select the amount of steam. You can choose between levels 01 to 05

- Each time the appliance is switched on, it always starts with the highest level.

Smoothing Textiles

WARNING: Risk of Burns!

The appliance emits a large amount of hot steam. Never aim the steam jet at people or animals.

CAUTION:

• Do not pull too hard on the clothes, the appliance could tip over.
  • Make sure that the steam hose is not kinked.

• To smooth an item of clothing with steam, hang it on a hanger that you hang in the hanger holder.

- If necessary, you can place the garment on the ironing board. If necessary, change the angle of the ironing board with the lever on the back.

1. Once you have filled the water tank, insert the mains plug into a correctly installed earthed socket.
2. Set the desired steam level. The appliance is ready for use after approx. 40 seconds.
3. Hold the steam nozzle by the handle and point it at the lower part of the garment. The steam rises from the inside and outside and smoothes out the creases.
4. Slowly move the nozzle from the bottom to the top of the fabric.
5. Remove the nozzle from the fabric and smooth it with your gloved hand.
6. Use the glove supplied for this!
7. Repeat steps 4 to 6 until all creases have been removed.
8. To remove larger creases, it is recommended to treat the inside and outside of the fabric with steam.
9. The brush attachment can also be used to remove larger creases.
10. Heavy fabrics require repeated steaming.

11. When using horizontally, hold the steam nozzle at a distance of approx. 10 cm above the fabric.

12. Switch the appliance off after each use with the ⏻ button. Then disconnect the mains plug from the socket.

Cleaning

WARNING:

• Always disconnect the mains plug from the socket before cleaning.
- Wait until the appliance has cooled down completely!
- Never immerse the appliance in water for cleaning. This could lead to an electric shock or fire.

To empty the water in the base, unscrew the water drain plug (10) anti-clockwise with a screwdriver.

1. To rinse out the appliance, fill fresh water into the water inlet and empty the appliance completely.
2. Replace the water drain plug. Screw it hand-tight in a clockwise direction.
3. Reinsert the filter above the water inlet. Then reinsert the water tank into the base.
4. Reassemble the appliance. Hook the steam nozzle into the holder.
