gned to match your new unit. It facilitates
and, thus, accelerates the ironing process
substantially. In any case, you should use
an ironing table which is covered with a
mesh-type underlay allowing the steam to
pass through.
Î All fabrics can be steam ironed. Adjust
the temperature regulator (K4) of the
steam iron within the notched range
(•••/MAX). Delicate imprints or fabrics
should be ironed on the reverse or ac-
cording to the manufacturer’s specifica-
tions. For this, you can use our anti-
stick sole plate (see optional accesso-
ries overview).
Î Once the indicator light on the steam
iron (K2) has gone out, the steam iron is
ready for use. The sole plate must be
hot to prevent the steam from conden-
sing on the sole plate and dripping onto
the garment to be ironed.
Î Press the switch (K3) on the iron.
Steam flows out on the sole plate.
– Press the switch to the front: A steam
burst is emitted while the switch is being
pressed.
– Press the switch to the back: The switch
locks and steam is continuously emit-
ted. To release, press the switch to the
front

Direct the first burst of steam at a sepa-
rate piece of cloth until the steam is
emitted evenly.
Î You can hold the iron in an upright positi-
on to apply steam to curtains, dresses,
etc.

You can use the wallpaper remover with
the steam cleaner to remove paper wallpa-
pers.
Î Place the entire surface of the wallpa-
per remover along the edge of a strip of
wallpaper. Switch on the steam supply
(C4) and allow the steam to act on the
wallpaper until it is completely soaked
(approximately 10 seconds).
Î Move the wallpaper remover to the next
piece of wallpaper you want to remove.
Hold the steam switch (C4) pressed
while you move the tool. Lift the soaked
piece of wallpaper using a flat trowel,
and pull it off the wall. Move the wallpa-
per remover from strip to strip, and pull
the wallpaper off in strips.
Î In case of woodchip wallpaper that has
been painted several times, the steam
may not be able to soak the wallpaper.
Thus, we recommend to prepare the
wallpaper using a spiked roller before
steam is applied.
