By turning the steam regulator anti-clockwise you can reduce the quantity of steam or turn the steam off « • » (= steam off) (see «Ironing Guide»). Constant steam: Your Braun steam iron is equipped with a special tank configuration to provide constant level in the tank is Jet of steam* (coming from the outlets p at the slim pointed tip o ): Caution: Keep children away from the jet of steam and do not hold your fingers in front of the outlets p when activating this function. When ironing within the red range area the jet of steam function can be used (d). To do so, press the button 5 at intervals of no less than 5 seconds. The jet of steam has been designed not only for steaming hard to reach areas like pleats, inside of pockets etc., but also for steaming hanging clothing (e. g. velvet skirts, curtains etc.) (f). The jet of steam functions between horizontal and upright positions. Be careful not to touch sensitive textiles with the hot sole plate. Spray / shot of steam 2-function button: The functions «water spray» and «shot of steam» can be activated with a 2-function button. The desired function can be selected by turning the button 6 as far as it will go. The marking (blue = water spray or red = shot of steam) must point to the respective function (e). Turn the button from blue (spray) to red (shot of steam) anti-clockwise and from red to blue clockwise (e). Shot of steam* (coming from the vents in the sole plate): When ironing within the red area the shot of steam function can be used. It gives an extra, particularly powerful shot of steam penetrating deep into the textiles in order to straighten creases, collars and pleats. The function «shot of steam» can be used in normal ironing and also horizontally for steaming hanging clothing (e. g. velvet skirts, curtains etc.) (f). Press the shot of steam button 6 at intervals of no less than 5 seconds. When steaming be careful not to touch sensitive textiles with the hot sole plate. * If pressed too frequently, Should this happen, before using it again. Spray (coming from the nozzle 3 ): The spray function can be used at any temperature, to dampen laundry. To do so, press the button 6 (water spray = blue). Storage After ironing, always pull the plug out of the wall outlet. Set the temperature selector 1 to «min.» (b) and the steam regulator 4 to « • » (= steam off) (c). To empty the iron hold it with the open water tank opening 2 downwards (g) and shake it 1 or 2 times. The swivel cord 9 conveniently winds up around the cord storage k . IMPORTANT: Store the cool steam iron in a dry place and always standing on its heel rest j . The sole plate may be damaged by remaining water if it is stored horizontally. The warranty does not cover faults or damage resulting from improper storage of the iron. Maintenance and Cleaning To remove residues of minerals/starch from the sole plate always use steel wool. Never use a scouring pad, vinegar or other chemicals. The steam vents m and jet of steam outlets p may be cleaned manually with a toothpick, if necessary. Clean the sole plate regularly if you use starch or other aids on the clothes for ironing. Decalcifying / Self-cleaning Braun automatic shut-off irons have a built-in system (anti-calc. valve) to prevent calcification. It allows you to clean residues from the steam chamber. Do not use commercial decalcifiers; they may damage the sole plate. We recommend to use the self-cleaning function every 3 months. 1. Turn the steam regulator 4 to the position «• » (= steam off). 2. Fill the water tank to the marking «max.» L and turn the temperature selector 1 to the lll marking («self-cleaning» = SC) (A). 3. Plug the iron into the socket and wait till the green pilot light 7 goes off. 4. Unplug the iron and hold it over a sink. 5. Turn the steam regulator 4 clockwise to the end of the red marking (B) and then 6. keep turning it to the double-arrow marking . The steam regulator will lift (C). 7. Pull out the steam regulator together with the valve vertically (D). Do not touch the lower end of the anticalc. valve with your fingers, to avoid a possible greasy film. 8. Allow all water to drain through the steam vents in the sole plate, while shaking the iron slightly. (Caution: Hot water and steam come out from the sole plate.) 9. Wait for the sole plate to cool down and then clean it (see «Maintenance and Cleaning»). 10. Make sure that the sole plate is completely dry before storing it. Cleaning the anti-calc. valve on the steam regulator During the time the sole plate is cooling down we recommend to decalcify the anti-calc. valve in the following way: 1. Put a small quantity of white vinegar (not vinegar essence) or lemon juice into a glass or bowl. 2. Immerse just the bottom part of the valve in the liquid, wait till it is decalcified and carefully brush of remaining residue (E). Do not use a metal brush. 3. Then, rinse it under running water without touching the lower end of the valve. Re-inserting the valve 1. Re-insert the...
