OPERATION
FILLING THE WATER TANK
• 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.
• 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).
• 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.

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
.
Note:
When used for the first time, the iron may emit smoke, which
is non-toxic. You may also hear noises created by expanding
plastics. This is normal. After ashort time, the iron will stop
emitting smoke and making noises.
IRONING WITH STEAM
Attention:
In order to iron with steam, the water tank must be
filled with water.
CONTINUOUS STEAMING FUNCTION
• For iron with steam, slide the steam release regulator from position
towards position . Set the position of the regulator 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 when you keep
moving it. When putting the iron down in a vertical position,
we recommend turning off the steam output using the steam
output regulator.
• Setting the steam release regulator to position
, 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.
Attention:
Do not use the steam function for silk and synthetics
so as not to damage the fabric.
WATER SPRAYING FUNCTION
• The water spraying function can be used with any ironing method. It
serves to moisten the fabric and effectively helps with ironing heavily
crumpled textiles.
• Make sure that there is asufficient amount of water in the water tank
and turn the iron so that its front side points towards the location that
you wish to spray.
• Press the water spraying button
. Water will spray out of the nozzle
on the front side.
Note:
When using the water spraying function for the first time or
when you have not used the iron for along time, it will be
necessary to press the water spraying button several times
before the nozzle starts working correctly.
DRIP-STOP SYSTEM
• The iron is equipped with the Drip-Stop system, which automatically
stops water supply when the set temperature is insufficient for
generating steam and thereby prevents potential dripping of hot water
out of the steam outlets.
ANTI-CALC SYSTEM
• This iron is equipped with apermanent Anti- Calc filter, which limits
the formation of limescale deposits inside the iron. This filter cannot be
deactivated. The effectiveness of the filter depends on the hardness of
the water used.
TURNING OFF
• Stand the iron upright and set the steam release regulator to position
.
• Set the temperature control knob to the MIN position.
• Disconnect the power cord from the power socket and allow the
soleplate to cool down. After the soleplate has cooled down, clean
the iron according to the instructions in chapter Cleaning and
maintenance.
TIPS FOR QUALITY IRONING
• If you are ironing fabrics from blended materials (e.g. 40% wool
and 60% synthetic material), set the temperature according to the
material which is ironed at alower temperature.
• If you do not know the composition of the fabric, identify the suitable
temperature setting by ironing apiece of the fabric from the underside.
Start by setting alow temperature and gradually increase it until the
ideal temperatures is achieved.
• Never iron over places that have sweat marks or other stains. The high
temperature fixes the stain in place, making it difficult to remove.
• To avoid silk, wool and synthetic fabrics from being shiny after ironing,
iron them from the underside.
• Some materials are easier to iron when they are lightly damp.
• Spray fine fabrics before ironing them or iron them under alightly
dampened wiping cloth.

• Open the water tank cap and empty out the remaining contents of the
water tank over asink. Close the cap.
• In the event that the soleplate or the surface of the iron is dirty, wipe
with alightly dampened cloth and then wipe dry.
• For cleaning, do not use steel wool, solvents or cleaning products with
an abrasive effect, etc. to prevent damaging the surface being cleaned.
REMOVING LIMESCALE DEPOSITS
• For the removal of limescale deposits from the inner part of the
soleplate, the iron is equipped with aself cleaning function. Use this
function regularly at least once every 14 days.
• Fill the water tank with clean water up to the maximum water level
mark. Connect the iron to apower socket and set the temperature
control knob to the MAX position. Wait until the heating indicator turns
off. Then disconnect the iron from the power supply again.
