Filling the water tank
NOTE
Use only tap water or distilled water.
If the tap water in your locality is rated as hard, it is a good idea to mix the
tap water with some distilled water. Otherwise, lime scale build-up could
impair the functionality of the appliance.
Mix the tap water with distilled water as described in the table below:
Water hardness
Ratio of distilled water to
mains water
very soft/soft
0
medium
1:1
hard
2:1
very hard
3:1
Water with additives (such as starch, perfume, conditioner or other chemicals)
may not be put into the water tank
. These could damage the appliance
as residues can form in the steam chamber. The residues could contaminate
clothing if they come out of the steam outlets.
♦
Reach into the recess on the water tank
and press the release catch
upwards with your fi ngertips.
♦
Pull the water tank
forwards and out.
♦
Fill the tank only up to the maximum limit.
♦
Push the water tank
back onto the base station
until it clicks into place.
If necessary, press a little harder on the upper part of the water tank
to
ensure that it has clicked into place and is securely connected to the base
station
.
NOTE
►
Do not tip or swing the steam station when it has a full water tank
.
Otherwise the water may spill out of the fi lling hole.
►
Fill the water tank
before fi rst use and as soon as the "Water tank
empty" indicator
lights up.
