Instructions for Use
Preparations
• Remove any protective fi lms and adhesive labels from the
stainless steel soleplate before using the appliance.
• Clean the ironing base with a slightly damp cloth.
Water Tank
• The lock of the water tank is located on the rear of the
device. The lock is opened by turning it in an anticlockwise
direction.
• The lock also contains the descaling cartridge. The tank
should therefore only be fi lled with clean tap water.
NOTE:
Do not fi ll 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 impurities to
the fabric when dropping out of the holes in the soleplate.
• Close the water tank.
Connected Wattage
In total the device can consume 2200 W of power.
CAUTION:
Overload!
Do not use any extension leads or multiple sockets
as this device is too powerful.
