If any damage is discovered, contact place of purchase or Dualit Ltd on 01293 652 500. Steam stations are made up of two main components: a container that holds the water for steam ironing and an iron without a water tank. The main body has a heating element that boils the water and a valve that lets the steam through a hose into the iron. An electric cord for the soleplate combined with a rubber hose for the steam supply connect the two components. The thermostat for the iron soleplate is located on the iron the same place as for conventional irons and there’s a steam pulse button that you press for steam ironing. Vertical steaming is possible due to this component arrangement, which is ideal for ironing and freshening up curtains and suits. 3 16 12 05_quark file for steam station.qxp 1/31/2006 14:18 Page 4 DESCRIPTION OF PARTS 21 3 1.
