BEFORE FIRST USE
■ Before first use, remove all packaging materials including promotion stickers and
labels from the iron. Wipe the soleplate with alightly dampened cloth before first
use and then wipe dry.
■ Using adry or lightly dampened cloth, also clean the outer parts of the iron and then
wipe it dry. Never submerge the iron in water or any other liquid!
OPERATION
FILLING THE WATER TANK
■ Before filling the water tank, the iron must be disconnected from the power socket
and the steam release regulator must be set to position
(steam output off).
■ The iron is intended to be filled with tap water. Limescale deposits may quickly form,
if you live in an area with hard or very hard water. To extend the lifetime of the iron, it
is recommended to mix the tap water with distilled water. The ratio of distilled water
to tap water is as follows:
– 1:1 for medium hard water
– 2:1 for hard water
– 3:1 for very hard water
Note:
Your local water utility will provide information about the water hardness
in your area.
Attention:
Never add water softeners, vinegar, starch, descaling agents,
perfumes or other additives to the water.
■ Fill the included container with water. Flip open the cap of the filling opening and
slightly tilt the iron. Slowly pour the water from the container through the filling
opening into the water tank. Make sure that the water level does not rise above the
maximum water level mark on the water tank. To correctly assess the water level, it
is necessary to stand the iron in the upright position.
■ After filling the water tank, close the filling opening lid and put the iron in the
upright position. In the event that you spilled any water while filling, thoroughly
dry the iron.
SETTING TEMPERATURE ACCORDING TO TEXTILE
■ When setting the temperature, pay attention to the material composition of
the textile. It is recommended to sort the laundry according to the international
symbols shown on the textile, according to the type of textile or according to the
recommendations of the manufacturer on the label. The number of dots inside the
international symbol corresponds to the number of dots on the temperature control
knob.

TURNING ON
■ Connect the power cord to apower socket. Turn the temperature control knob to
the required temperature setting. Indicator A9 will be lit, which means that the
iron is heating up. When the iron'sthermostat reaches the correct temperature, the
heating indicator will turn off. The iron is now ready for use.
Note:
The heating indicator will spontaneously turn on and off during use. This
is completely normal.
In the event that the temperature control knob was not set to the MIN
position the after previous use of the iron, and was left at one of the
temperatures, the heating indicator will be lit immediately when the
power cord is plugged into the power socket.
IRONING WITHOUT STEAMING
■ This function enables the use of the iron with or without water in the water tank,
however, the steam release regulator must be set to position
(stream output off)
Note:
When used for the first time, the iron may emit smoke, which is non-toxic.
This is normal. After ashort time, the iron will stop emitting smoke.
IRONING WITH STEAM
Attention:
In order to iron with steam, the water tank must be filled with
water.
CONTINUOUS STEAMING FUNCTION
■ If you wish to iron with steam, slide the steam release regulator from position
(steam release off) towards position
(steam release on). Select the position based
on the required steam intensity. The more the steam regulator is moved to the right,
the stronger the steam intensity.
■ Wait until the heating indicator turns off.
■ The steam release regulator can be moved at any time while ironing.
■ For all standard ironing, it is recommended to use the middle settings of the steam
release regulator. Only when ironing linen fabrics, strong silk or similar fabrics is it
recommended to set the steam release regulator to maximum.
Note:
The iron continuously emits steam only if you hold it in a horizontal
position. You can stop the release of steam by standing the iron upright.
■ Setting the steam release regulator to position
(steam output off), deactivates
the steam function.
STEAM IMPULSE FUNCTION
■ Use this function when ironing with continuous steam is insufficient. Press the
steam impulse button to generate astrong flow of steam, which can straighten out
even very crumpled up textiles.
■ Wait at least 3 seconds before pressing the button again. If the heating indicator
starts flashing, wait until it turns off and only then press the button.
■ The steam impulse function can also be used when ironing hanging textiles (e.g.
curtains, garments hanging on coat hangers, etc.). Use one hand to gently tension
the fabric and vertically move the iron from bottom up. Press the steam impulse
button to achieve vertical bursts of steam. Do not hold the steam impulse button
continuously and do not consecutively use it more than 10 times.
