Temperature Control on the Iron
The symbols on the control correspond to the following
settings:
(synthetics, silk) low temperature
(rayon, wool)
medium temperature
(cotton, linen)
high temperature
• Turn woollen clothes inside out to avoid shiny spots on
the fabric due to steam ironing. In addition, lay a thin
cotton cloth onto the fabric.
• Select a low temperature setting for fabrics with addi-
tional surface treatment and iron them inside out.
NOTE:
The iron heats up faster than it cools down. Start ironing
with the lowest temperature setting.

Water Tank
• The water tank has a recessed grip so that it can be
removed.
• When sliding the tank back into the base, it must audibly
click into place.
• The MAX mark is placed on the water tank. Do not fill the
tank above this mark. The tank volume is 1.2 litres.
Water
CAUTION: Limescale build-up on the appliance!
• Use only distilled water!
If you do not comply with this important note, it may
result in a defective appliance.
• An appliance that is defective due to build-up of limes-
cale shall not be covered by the free warranty.
• Do not fill battery water, water from the clothes dryer
and water containing additives (such as starch, perfume,
softener or other chemicals) into the water reservoir.
• This could damage the iron due to residues forming in
the steam chamber. These residues may cause impu-
rities to the fabric when dropping out of the holes in the
soleplate.
Operation
Before Initial Use
• Clean the ironing base with a slightly damp cloth.
• In order to remove all residues before initial use, please
pass the iron a few times over an old clean cloth.
