Warning
– For all normal ironing the middle adjustment of the steam amount is recommended.
Only on ironing the linen fabric, thick cotton and similar fabrics the adjustment of the
steam amount to maximum value is recommended. Setting to high-pressure steam
ironing os recommended only if the regulation wheel
H
is set to temperature setting •••.
– Be extra careful to avoid accidental pushing of the
SELF CLEAN
button.
– When water container I is filled with water over the permitted limit (
MAX. 300 ml
), steam
can be created even in the rest position.
–
At places with hard water we recommend diluting it with distilled water. You will get the
information about water hardness at the water-management authorities, or at the local
sanitary station. For water hardness
> 15 °N
we recommend filling the iron in the following
ratio:
Water hardness
Ratio of tap water : distilled water
medium
2 : 1
hard
1 : 1
very hard
1 : 2
Sprinkling appliance (additional spray)
It is used for moistening fabrics and it is effective in ironing extremely creased fabrics.
It is activated by repeated pressing of additional spray button
E
. We do not recommend
applying additional spray for fine fabrics (e.g.
silk and synthetic
) as the used water may
stain the fabric.
Intensive steaming (steam shock)
Use only if the steam ironing is insufficient. In this case press intensive steaming button
F
several times (Fig. 6A –
). Thus you will get additional steam except for the steam
created by standard steaming.
Warning
When you press intensive steaming button
F
several times, water may drip from the ironing
plate due to excess water in the steam chamber. Do not consider this as faulty operation.
VERTICAL SYSTEM
It is intensive vertical steaming for steaming of freely hanging textiles (such as hanging
clothes, draperies, hangings). Set the regulation wheel
H
to the marked area for steaming
(Fig. 2). As soon as the indication lamp
G
turns
OFF
, stretch the fabric slightly with one
hand and move the iron vertically bottom-up (Fig. 6B –
). Press the intensive steaming
button
F
so that you reach vertical steam hammer. Do not hold the intensive steaming
button pressed continuously and do not use it more than 10 times consecutively.
WARNING
– Prevent burning of sensitive fabrics, do not close them to the iron to distance of 10 to 20 cm.
– Use the VERTICAL function only if the regulation wheel
H
to the ••• or maximum position.
!
DRIP STOP
The appliance prevents leaking water from the ironing plate when its temperature is insufficient.
