Preparing for use
Filling Water
- If the tap water in your area is very hard, we advise you to mix the tap water with a equal amount of demineralized water.
- Do not put perfume, vinegar, starch, descaling agents, ironing aids, other chemicals or 100 percent distilled water in the detachable tank(H).
- Pull down the Detachable water tank locker (W).
- Remove the detachable water tank (H) from the steam station.
- Fill the detachable water tank with water up to the MAX indication.
- Pull down the Detachable water tank locker(W).
- Slide the detachable water tank (H) back into the steam station.
- The detachable water tank (H) can be refilled at any time during use.
- This appliance has a built-in water level sensor. When the minimum level in the detachable water tank (H) has been reached, the water tank lower water indicator light (P) will start flashing. Steam ironing will not be possible!
Note: When you use the appliance for the first time or after Calc Clean, a lot of water will be pumped from the detachable water tank into the steam station. Refill the tank, if necessary.
Setting the temperature
- Set the temperature control dial (S) to the required ironing temperature by turning it to the appropriate temperature indication.
- Insert the main plug (U) into an earthed wall socket and press the power indicator.
The steam station and the iron will now start heating up. The iron takes approx. 1 minute to heat up to ●● and the steam station takes approx. 2 minutes to heat up. As soon as the steam station has reached its maximum pressure level and is ready for steam ironing, the steam indicator light (Q) goes on.
Tips
- If the article consists of various kind of fibers, always select the temperature required by the most delicate fiber, i.e. The lowest temperature. If, for example, the fabric consists of 60% polyester and 40% cotton, it should be ironed at the temperature indicated for polyester (●●).
- If you do not know what kind of fabric the article is made of, determine the right ironing temperature by ironing a part that will not be visible when you wear or use the article. Silk, woolen and synthetic materials: iron the reverse side of the fabric ‐ to prevent shiny patches.
- Fabrics that tend to acquire shiny patches should be ironed in one direction only (along with the nap ) while applying very little pressure.
- Start ironing the articles that require the lowest ironing temperature first.
- To make the iron cool down faster, simply apply steam or iron a piece of cloth.
