You will obtain optimal steaming 
results and the noise produced by the 
steaming will be steadier after the 
water reservoir has been filled and 
drained three times.

Ironing with Steam

To steam iron, set the temperature 
selector (Figure 1/N) to the required 
fabric type and wait until the power 
indicator (Figure 1/J) goes out - only 
then set the steam selector (Figure 1/F) 
to the desired position (Figure 4/B). You 
will find which temperature setting 
(fabric type) matches which steam set-
ting in the ironing table. As soon as the 
steam iron is held horizontally steam 
begins to form. When the steam iron is 
set upright again the steam supply 
stops automatically.

Spray Function (Figure 6/A)

The first time you use the appliance, 
or if you have not used it for a long 
time, you will need to press the spray 
function button (Figure 1/H) several 
times before water comes out of the 
spray nozzle (Figure 1/D). You can also 
use the spray function when dry iron-
ing.

Super Steam Jet Function
(Figure 6/B)

The super steam jet function is of 
valuable assistance when ironing, for 
example, creases, embroidery etc. You 
can trigger the additional steam jet 
both when steam ironing and when dry 
ironing.

stop function. The drip stop immedi-
ately interrupts the creation of steam 
if the temperature selected is too low.

Set the temperature selector 
(Figure 1/N) to the “Cold” position 

(Figure 2/a) and the steam selector

cification feature, which significant 
slows down the deposit of limescale in 
the steam chamber.

The steam iron must not be des-
caled! Neither vinegar nor proprie-
tary brands of descaler must be 
filled into the water reservoir!
