7. Operation

DANGER! The sole plate 19 be-
comes very hot during operation.
Only touch the handle 7 and control
elements of the steam iron during
operation.

• Even during short interruptions, always

place the steam iron in the stand 13
and never on its sole plate 19. There is
a fire hazard!

• NOTE: You may notice an odour when

using for the first time. This is a result of
the manufacturing process and is not a
defect with the device. Ensure adequate
ventilation.

The sole plate cools down slightly during
ironing. In order to reach the set temperature
again, the device heats the sole plate up
again, during which the temperature control
lamp 15 lights up. The temperature control
lamp 15 goes out again when the set tem-
perature is reached. This process repeats it-
self during ironing.

Ironing with cable: simply continue iron-
ing during the heating phase.
Cable-free ironing: the steam iron stands
on the stand 13.
Wait until the temperature control lamp 15
goes out.

7.1 Filling the water tank

DANGER! Pull the mains plug out
of the socket before you fill up the
water tank 17.

• Use clean tap water without any addi-

tives (e.g. vinegar, limescale remover,
starch, perfume, softener).

• The integrated anti-limescale protection

reduces limescale deposits for average
water hardness, and thus extends the

service life of the device. If your tap wa-
ter is hard, use distilled water. Where
the water is moderately hard, mix dis-
tilled water and tap water at a ratio of
1:1.

1. Disconnect the mains plug from the wall

socket.

2. Turn the steam flow rate controller 3 left

to .

3. The switch 12 is in the top position

. Remove the steam iron from the

stand 13. The cable base 11 remains
in the stand.

4. Open the lid 2 (of the water tank) and

hold the device at an angle to fill it.

5. Use the measuring beaker 23 to pour in

water up to the mark 22 max, but at
least up to one quarter. Hold the steam
iron upright to check.

6. Close the lid 2 (of the water tank).
7. Place the steam iron on the stand 13

and set the steam flow rate controller 3
to the desired position.

7.2 Set iron temperature

NOTE: The steam iron must be connected to
the cable base in order to heat up.

1. Set the desired temperature using the

temperature controller 20:
- MIN the device is not getting hot
-

Temperature: up to approx.
110 °C

÷÷

Temperature: up to approx.
150 °C

÷÷÷

Temperature: up to approx.
210 °C

- MAX maximum temperature:

2. The temperature control lamp 15 is lit

for as long as the steam iron is heating.
It goes out when the set temperature has
been reached. You can then begin iron-
ing.
