DEVICE FUNCTIONS
• The device features electronic temperature setting, which reliably sets and main-
tains the chosen temperature. The red heating indicator light (3) lights up during
heating up. You can use the temperature control (5) to choose the temperature you
want.
•
With the steam on/off button (13) you can switch on the steam function even at a
low ironing temperature.
• The device has an automatic switch-on function and an automatic safety switch-off
function. Both work with the device in both the horizontal and vertical position:
1
When you plug the mains plug into the plug socket, the operating lamp (3) lights
up. The device starts to heat up.
2
In horizontal position as soon as you let go of the handle (14), the device auto-
matically goes back into stand-by (automatic safety switch-off function) and the
operating lamp (3) flashes (in vertical position after 3 minutes). CAUTION: It takes
a little while for the bottom (6) of the iron to cool down. Even once the device is
in stand-by mode, never leave it unattended while it is still connected to the mains
power!

If you touch the handle, the device switches on (automatic switch-on function) and
the operating lamp lights up constantly.
• Thanks to the ceramic coating on the bottom of the iron, the device slides effort-
lessly over the fabric during ironing.
• The anti-limescale system of the device removes the lime from the water if you use
tap water instead of distilled water for steam-ironing.
• The self-cleaning function allows you to remove limescale residues from the de-
vice, see the „Self-Cleaning Function“ chapter.
