Filling with water

(before ironing)

Pull the water container [18] backwards along the
track.
Fill the water container to the maximum level (see
MAX marker on the scale).
(see information about filling the steam station on
page 48)
Push the water container [18] back into the original
position, applying slight pressure.
The water container has not been correctly positioned
until you hear a double click.
If you are using the equipment for the first time or
after decalcification, a particularly large amount of
water will be pumped into the steam station from the
removable water container. For this reason, refill the
tank if required.
Avoid over-filling the steam station (max. 800 - 900
ml). If the container is too full, hot water maybe
ejected rather than steam.
If water escapes or if the tank is too full, please pour
some water out and dry the equipment thoroughly.

Power supply

1.  Connect the feed cable plug [7] of the steam iron
  station to the socket [2] of the ironing board.
  This will ensure that the steam iron station
  is supplied with power.
2.  Then connect the feed cable plug [1] for the
  complete system to a wall socket.

Ironing procedure

1. 1. Turn on the iron and steam system switch
[8] on.

Please keep in mind:

The steam system must only be used if there is enough
water in the steam system (but max. 800 - 900 ml).
We therefore recommend topping up the water before
each ironing session. In this way, you will avoid delays
while you refill the container during ironing.
2.  Wait for a few minutes until the warning light
  turns on to show that the steam is ready [10].
3.  Then turn on the on/off switch [3] for the steam
  extraction on the ironing board.
  The steam extraction should be on constantly
  whenever possible to remove excess steam from
  the ironing board and the inside of the casing. This
  ensures that the ironing board remains warm and
  dry. (Please refer to the instructions for extraction
  and air intake function on page 47).
4.  Set the temperature control [15] on the steam
  iron to level • • •.
  Make sure that the set temperature of the iron
  does not fall below the marker while ironing
  with steam. As soon as the control light [17] turns
  off, the steam iron is ready for use.
5.  Steam will then be released from the iron sole
  when you press the steam button [16]. If the
  steam button catch is activated [16], the steam
  will be turned on permanently.
6.  Adjust the amount of steam using the steam
  volume regulator [12]. The regulator can be set
  with no specific levels.

Preparation

To ensure that enough ventilation is available, the
back of the equipment must be at least 15 cm and
the sides at least 15 cm away from the wall or other
objects.
The complete system must be set up on a solid flat
surface! It is possible to compensate for uneven
flooring by using the adjustable foot caps [6].
1.  Remove the cord to the complete system [1] and
  carefully move the pedestal forward. The complete
  system folds out and you can then stop it at the
  desired position. Then, you can move the complete
  system forward and lower it onto the ground.
2.  The complete system can be adjusted in height to
  six different levels (maximum height
  approx. 100 cm) and this makes it possible to
  iron either standing up or sitting. To adjust the
  height, hold the ironing board with both hands,
  lift the ironing table gently and lift up the
  activation lever (5) with one hand (the slight
  lift on the ironing table is intended as a safety
  measure to prevent unintended activation). As
  soon as you hear an audible click, you know that
  the ironing table is locked in place again.
  Using the adjustable foot caps (6), you have the
  option to compensate for any unevenness of the floor.
3.  Set down the steam iron exclusively on the silicon
  mat (13) that is part of the complete system.
4.  The cable holder (20) should be clipped onto the
  mount supplied for this purpose on the railing of
  the complete system.
5.  Insert the connection hose (14) into the cable
holder.
