• During ironing pauses, always place the iron upright on its heel rest. Unplug it when leaving the room, even if only for a short time. • Never pull out the steam button (3) during ironing. • Keep the iron away from children. Electric irons combine high temperatures and hot steam that could lead to burns. • Check the cord regularly for possible damage. • If the appliance (including cord) shows any defect, stop using it and take it to a Braun Service Centre for repair. • Faulty or unqualified repair work may cause accidents or injury to the user. ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– A Description 1 Spray nozzle 2 Water tank opening 3 Steam button 3a Steam regulator 4 Spray button 5 Power shot button 6 Temperature selector 7 Temperature pilot light B Before starting off • This iron is designed for tap water. If you have extremely hard water, we recommend to use a mixture of 50% tap water and 50% distilled water. Fill the water tank to «max» marking. Never use distilled water exclusively. Do not add any additives (e.g. starch). • Keep the iron in the upright position and connect it to the mains. Select the temperature according to the ironing guide on the heel rest of the iron or on the label in your garments. • The temperature pilot light (7) goes off, when the desired temperature is reached (after approx. 1 minute). C Ironing 1 Steam on/off For steam ironing, the temperature selector (6) must be set within the red range. Press the steam button (3) to start the steam mode. steam on press press steam off With the steam button in its upper position, turn the steam regulator (3a) to adjust the steam quantity. Preconditioning (not with models SI 6210, SI 6510) Steam develops also horizontally at the front area of the sole plate. This preconditions the textiles by «pre-steaming», thus making ironing easier. Be careful – steam comes out laterally. 2 Power shot Prior to use, press the power shot button (5) 3 to 4 times to activate it. Press the power shot button in intervals of at least 5 seconds. Power shot can be activated when dry ironing. However, the temperature selector has to be set in the range between «•••» and «max». The power shot function can also be used in the vertical position for steaming hanging clothes. 3 Spray function Press the spray button (4). 4 Dry ironing Turn the steam mode off by pressing the steam button (3) so that it catches in the lower position. D After ironing • Unplug the iron and press the steam on/off button (3) so that it catches in its lower position (steam off). • To prolong the life of the iron, empty the water tank. • Store the cool iron in a dry place always standing on its heel rest. E Maintenance and cleaning To clean the sole plate, use steel wool. Then wipe the sole plate clean with a cloth. Never use a scouring pad, vinegar nor other chemicals. To clean the soft material of handle and power shot and spray buttons, use soapy water. 5 3) Remove carefully (some water may now leak from the sole plate). 4) Do not touch the anit-calc valve. 5) Immerse in vinegar (not vinegar essence) or lemon juice until the lime becomes soft. 6) Use a non-metallic brush until all openings are clean. 7) Rinse under running water. 8) Re-insert the steam button. 9) Press to check the steam on/off function. Note: the iron must never be used without the steam button. G Decalcifying/anticalc system When scale particles come out of the steam vents or when the steam development is insufficient even after cleaning the anticalc valve, you should clean the steam chamber as follows: 1) Make sure the steam button is in its lower position. 2) – 3) Fill water into the tank, connect to the mains and select the «•••» temperature setting. 4) – 5) Wait until the pilot light turns off. Unplug the iron. 6) – 7) Hold the iron over a sink, then press the steam button so it is lifted, carefully pull it up, turn it and rest it in this position. Caution: When the steam button is pulled up, hot water and steam will come out from the sole plate. 8) Push back the steam button until it catches in the lower position. 9) – 10) Fill water into the tank, connect to the mains and select the «•••» temperature setting. 11)–13) When the pilot light goes off, press the power shot button 4 times to rinse the iron. Disconnect the iron and wait for the sole plate to cool off, then clean it as described above in section E. Note: the iron must never be used without the steam button. H Trouble-shooting guide Problem Remedy –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Drops coming out of the steam vents Turn the steam regulator anti-clockwise to reduce the steam or press the steam button to turn the steam off. Take longer intervals when pressing the power shot button. Select a higher temperature setting. No steam Press the steam button at all so that it is lifted. Less steam Clean the anticalc valve develops or no steam at all (see F). Calcium particles coming through the steam vents Decalcify the steam chamber (see G). –––––––––––––––––...
