ATTENTION!
If steam is not supplied constantly during the oper-
ation, check whether the temperature control knob
(11) is set properly and whether there is water in the
water tank (10).
BURST OF STEAM
The burst of steam function is useful for ironing
folds and can only be used at high ironing tempera-
tures (when the temperature control knob (11) is set
to the position «
•••
» or “
MAX
”).
•
When pressing the burst of steam button (5)
steam will go out of the iron soleplate more
intensively.
Note:
To avoid water leakage from steam openings, press
the burst of steam button (5) with a 4-5 sec. inter-
val. To avoid dripping, do not hold the burst of
steam button (5) longer than 5 seconds.
VERTICAL STEAM
Vertical steam function can be used only at high
ironing temperatures (that is, when the tempera-
ture control knob (11) is set to the position «
•••
»
or “
MAX
”).
Hold the iron vertically at the distance of 10-30 cm
from the clothes and press the burst of steam but-
ton (5) with a 4–5 second interval, steam will be
released from the soleplate (13) intensively.
Important information
Vertical steam is not recommended for synthetic
fabrics.
•
To avoid fabric melting, do not touch it with the
iron soleplate while steaming.
•
Never steam clothes on a person as the steam
temperature is very high, use clothes hanger
or a stand.
•
After you finish ironing, switch the iron off, wait
until it cools down completely, then open the
water inlet lid (2), turn the iron over and drain the
remaining water.
STEAM CHAMBER CLEANING
To prolong service life of the iron, we recommend
cleaning the steam chamber regularly, especially in
regions with hard tap water.
•
Set the continuous steam supply knob (3) to
the leftmost position - continuous steam sup-
ply is off.
•
Fill the water tank (10) until it’s filled half way.
•
Place the iron on its base (8).
•
Insert the power plug into the mains socket.
•
Set the control knob (11) to the maximum sole-
plate temperature «
•••
» or «MAX», the indicator
(9) will light up.
•
When the soleplate (13) reaches the desired
temperature value, the indicator (9) will go out,
you can start cleaning.
•
Set the temperature control knob (11) to the
“
OFF
” position to switch off the iron.
•
Unplug the unit.
•
Hold the iron above the sink horizontally, press
and hold down the self-clean button (14).
•
Boiling water and steam with scale will be
released from the iron soleplate (13) openings.
•
Slightly sway the iron back and forth, until water
goes out of the water tank (10) completely.
•
Place the iron on the base (8) and let it cool
down completely.
•
Once the soleplate (13) cools down completely,
wipe it with a dry cloth.
•
Before you take the iron away for storage,
make sure that there is no water in the water
tank (10) and that the iron soleplate (13) is
completely dry.
CLEANING AND CARE

Before cleaning the iron, make sure that it is
unplugged and has cooled down completely.
•
Clean the iron body with a slightly damp cloth
and then wipe it dry.

Scale on the iron soleplate can be removed with
a cloth soaked in vinegar-water solution.

After removing scale, polish the soleplate sur-
face with a dry cloth.

Do not use abrasive substances to clean the iron
soleplate and body.

Avoid contact of the iron soleplate with sharp
metal objects.

terclockwise to the “

continuous steam supply knob (3) to the left-
most position – steam supply is off.
