steam ironing
Never direct the steam at people.
Steam ironing is only possible at higher ironing temperatures (temperature settings 2 to
MAX).
1
Make sure that there is enough water in the steam tank.
Select an ironing temperature between 2 and MAX.
Note:You cannot use the steam function at temperature setting 1.
Put the mains plug in an earthed wall socket and set both the steam tank switch and the iron
switch to 'on'.
The steam tank and iron power-on lights go on. The temperature light on the iron also goes
,
on.
The steam tank and the soleplate start to heat up.
,
-
Cold start: the soleplate takes approximately 2 minutes to heat up and the steam tank takes
approximately 8 minutes to heat up.
-
Quick reheat: if you refill the steam tank during ironing, the water in the steam tank takes
approximately 6 minutes to heat up.
4
As soon as the water in the steam tank is hot enough for steam ironing, the steam tank
power-on light goes out.
The appliance is now ready for steam ironing.
,
5
Keep the steam activator pressed in while you steam iron. (Fig. 5)
If you want to use the steam function continuously, slide the steam activator lock to the
,
locking position. To stop steaming, release the steam activator lock.
Note:During steam ironing, the temperature light goes on from time to time. This indicates that the iron
is heating up to the right temperature.
Note:If you have not used the steam function for some time, the steam that was still present in the
supply hose will have condensed into water. When you start to steam iron again, this can cause some
spluttering in the appliance and some water droplets to escape from the soleplate.
Note:To prevent droplets from falling onto your garments, hold the iron over an old cloth. Press the steam
activator until the steam production has normalised before you start to steam iron again.
Ironing without steam
Do not press the steam activator while you iron.
1
Set the required ironing temperature (see chapter 'Preparing for use', section 'Setting the
temperature').
Put the mains plug in an earthed wall socket and set the iron switch to 'on'.
The soleplate starts to heat up.
,
Iron without pressing the steam activator
If you press the steam activator by accident while you iron, some steam will escape. To avoid
,
this, set the steam tank switch to 'off' to cut off the steam supply completely.
If the steam tank is empty or has not heated up yet, you hear a clicking sound inside the tank.
,
This phenomenon is caused by the opening of the steam valve and is perfectly harmless.
