Steam ironing

Hold the iron disconnected from power supply in your hand, turn steaming regulator

0 position (Fig. 5) and lift off cover C to open the filling container lid. Pour in water to

container

I using the enclosed cup O (Fig. 4) and close the filling hole lid in the opposite

direction.

Keep the position of the iron for pouring in water. Plug power cord M to

a socket. Put the iron into the rest position (Fig. 7) and using control

H set one of the

programs enabling steaming on the display (i.e.

WOOL, COTTON, JEANS or LINEN).

When you hear a sound signal (indicating reached selected temperature), move regulator

D towards the handle. The more you move the regulator D towards MAX, the bigger

amount of outgoing steam there will be (Fig. 5). Place the iron to the rest position,

automatic creation of steam will stop (more steam may be going out for a short time).

Warning

– For all normal ironing the middle adjustment of the steam amount is recommended. Only

on ironing the linen fabric, thick cotton and similar fabrics the adjustment of the steam

amount to maximum value is recommended. Setting to maximum steam ironing os

recommended only if the regulation wheel

H is set to symbol •••.

– Be extra careful to avoid accidental pushing of the

SELF CLEAN button.

– When water container

I is filled with water over the permitted limit (MAX. 300 ml), steam

can be created even in the rest position.

– At places with hard water we recommend diluting it with distilled water. You will get

the information about water hardness at the water-management authorities, or at the

local sanitary station. For water hardness

> 15 °N we recommend filling the iron in the

following ratio:

Water hardness

Ratio of tap water : distilled water (pH = 7)

medium

2 : 1

hard

1 : 1

very hard

1 : 2

Sprinkling appliance (additional spray)

It is used for moistening fabrics and it is effective in ironing extremely creased fabrics.

It is activated by repeated pressing of additional spray button

E. We do not recommend

applying additional spray for fine fabrics (e.g.

silk and synthetic) as the used water may

stain the fabric.

Intensive steaming (steam shock)

Use only if the steam ironing is insufficient. In this case press steam shock button

F several

times (Fig. 6A

). Thus you will get additional steam except for the steam created by

standard steaming.

WARNING

When you press intensive steaming button

F several times, water may drip from the

ironing plate due to excess water in the steam chamber. Do not consider this as faulty

operation.
