Do not add anything to the contents of the water tank and do not use water from clothes dryers, scented or softened water, water from refrigerators, batteries or air conditioners, pure distilled water or rain water. These contain organic waste or mineral elements that become concentrated when heated and cause spitting, brown staining or premature wear to your iron. Tip: Spray starch onto the reverse side of the fabric to be ironed. Setting the temperature C D Ironing label Fabric Temperature control Synthetic fibres e.g. viscose, polyester silk, wool cotton, linen Using the temperature control ( ), set the iron temperature to suit the type of material. We recommend using the above table as a guide. The thermostat light indicates that the soleplate is heating up. When the light ( ) goes out, the required temperature has been reached. Please note: When heating up the iron from cold, wait until the warning light has gone out a second time. Only then is the set temperature reached. F Tip:We recommend that you start with fabrics to be ironed at a low temperature as the iron takes longer to cool down than to heat up. For mixed fabrics set the temperature for the most delicate fabrics. Ironing and Steam functions E1 Dry ironing To iron without continuous steam, turn the steam control ( ) to and set the temperature to suit the type of material (care points •, ••, •••). E2 Steam ironing You can steam iron from temperature setting •• up. The steam quantity can be set to between (minimum steam quantity) and (maximum steam). We recommend setting to maximum steam quantity only when the iron is set at temperature setting •••. E3 Pro Vertical (vertical steam ironing to be used at maximum steam setting) Ideal for removing creases from suits, jackets, skirts, hanging curtains etc.. Important: Never steam or iron clothing that is being worn! • Hang up the garment on a hanger and hold the fabric slightly taut with one hand. • Set the thermostat control to maximum steam. • Hold the iron a few centimetres away from the garment to avoid burning delicate fabrics. • Press the power steam button to generate a continuous flow of steam, moving the iron from top to bottom. If the steam flow weakens, it can be maintained by pressing the button again approx. every 3 seconds. We recommend briefly setting the iron down after 1 minute. Before standing the iron on its heel, wait for the steam flow to finish. Important: Never direct the steam jet at persons or animals E4 Power steam button (from temperature setting ••• up). To generate a powerful jet of steam and remove stubborn creases, press the power steam button. E5 Spray function To dampen stubborn creases, press the spray button ( ). Additional functions F 1 Self Clean – prolongs the life of the iron The self clean function flushes dirt and scale particles out of the steam chamber. To operate: • Fill the tank with tap water up to the maximum mark and heat the iron to max. temperature. • Unplug from the mains. • Hold iron over a sink horizontally, push the steam control ( ) past the position and into the "Self Clean" position and hold it there: steam will now begin to build up. After a few seconds water and steam will emerge from the soleplate, rinsing dirt and scale particles out of the steam chamber. • After approx. 1 minute move the steam control slide to Problems? the position. I • Insert mains plug and allow the iron to heat up again. • Wait until the remaining water has evaporated. • Unplug from the mains and allow iron to fully cool down. • When cool, the soleplate can be wiped with a damp cloth. We recommend using the self clean function approx. every 2 weeks. If the water is very hard, the iron should be cleaned weekly. Valve The self clean valve prevents the drip hole into the steam chamber from furring or blocking up. To ensure the iron continues to function properly, open and close the valve by sliding the steam control to max then min a few times after use. F2 Anti-scale system (depending on model) Your iron contains an anti-scale cartridge to reduce scale deposits. This considerably prolongs the operational life of your iron. The anti-scale cartridge is an integral part of the water tank and does not need to be replaced. Do not use descaling agents, as these damage the lining of the steam chamber and so may impair the steam function. F3 Anti-Drip system (depending on model) If the temperature is set too low, the iron cannot produce steam because of the anti-drip technologoy which prevents droplets of water leaking from the soleplate. G After ironing • Unplug from the mains, pour away remaining water and set steam control to . Then allow the appliance to cool down. • Do not wind the cord round a hot soleplate. • Store the iron standing on its heel. H Cleaning and maintenance When cool, the iron and the soleplate can be wiped with a damp cloth. Do not use corrosive or abrasive cleaning agents or sharp objects to clean the soleplate. Depending on the model, the stainless stee...
