Just make sure, when using burst of steam during dry ironing that the temperature regulation
has been set at this function.
Spray
Spray (atomisation of water) is used to dampen dry garments and difficult creases. Press the
spray button all the way down, and water particles will be sprayed on the garments for easier
ironing and a better result.
It can also be an advantage to use the spray function for delicate fabrics (synthetic fabric)
that are ironed at low temperatures and where you cannot use a specific burst of steam.
Anti-drip System
The iron comprises an anti-drip system to prevent water from dripping on the clothes during
steam ironing, should the temperature of the soleplate be too low. The anti-drip system may
emit a loud ’click’, particularly when the iron is heating up and cooling down. This is quite
normal and does not mean that the iron is defective. If this ‘click’ is heard during ironing it in-
dicates that the amount of steam is too important for the chosen temperature. Either reduce
the amount of steam or increase the temperature.
If, contrary to expectation, some water drops should occur, this does not mean that the iron
is defective, but it can indicate that the water tank is about to being empty or that the iron
needs to be descaled.
The anti-drip system will automatically switch off the steam if the temperature is too low.
Safety Stop Function
The iron comprises a safety stop function that automatically switches off the iron if you e.g.
forget to switch it off after use. This function switches off the iron if placed in a vertical po-
sition on its heel and has not been moved for about 10 minutes. If the iron is placed on the
soleplate (i.e. in a horizontal position) and has not been moved for 30 seconds, the iron is
automatically switched off.
The safety stop light on the grip will flash and you will hear a beep indicating that the power
supply to the iron has been cut.
When the iron has cut the power, move the iron forwards and backwards to reconnect to the
power and the safety stop icon and the safety stop light will automatically go out and the ther-
mostat light will flash to indicate that the iron is heating up. When the iron has been heated
up, you can start ironing again.
If the safety stop function of the iron has been on for more than 1 hour the iron will be cold
and you will have to set the wanted temperature before ironing again.
After use
When the ironing is done, put the steam selector in position
. Disconnect from the mains
supply and empty the water tank by opening up to the filling inlet and turn the iron upside
down over a sink to let the water run out. Reconnect the appliance and set the temperature
at “MAX” for 1 to 2 minutes to let any remaining water evaporate. Now disconnect from the
mains supply and position the iron on its heel to let the soleplate cool off.
