by the

on the underside of the ironing board
starts automatically.
When the

will also stop automatically after a brief
time delay.
When using the steam function for a
long time, make sure the room is well
ventilated, as high air humidity can
develop.

button and
release it again.

back, the
button remains in a locked
position.
Steam is now emitted continuously.

function

forwards.
This will unlock the
button again and
the steam burst function is ended.

must have stopped before the iron is
put back on the resting surface.

will stop being produced after

Filling the water container
Fill the water container when the

appears in
the display (see "Filling the water
container").
When using the steam function for a
long time during ironing,
condensation can build up in the
ironing board.
Sensitive floors can be damaged by
droplets of water.
If you notice condensate underneath
the ironing board, use a cloth to wipe
it up.
Useful tip:
If you take a break from
ironing, condensate may collect in the
steam hose. When the
button is
pressed, the condensate is expelled
from the hose. To avoid damp spots on
your clothes, do not direct the first
burst of steam onto the garment after a
break from ironing.
