Vertical ironing
The iron can also be used for vertical ironing, which is perfect for removing
creases on hanging clothes, curtains etc. The process is the same as for burst of
steam (see above section), but the iron is to be held in a vertical position about
15-30 cm away from the garment to be ironed.
Dry ironing
Turn the steam selector at position “0” (closed). Set the wanted temperature and
wait until the signal lamp goes out. The appliance is now ready for use.
Furthermore the spray function can be used, if wanted. Just make sure that there
is always sufficient water in the water tank before you start ironing.
Spray
Spray is used to dampen dry garments and difficult creases. Press the spray
button all the way down several times and water particles will be sprayed on the
garment for easier ironing and a better result.
It will also be an advantage to use the spray function for delicate fabrics (synthetic
fabrics) that are ironed at low temperatures and where you cannot use the burst
of steam function.
Anti-drip system
The iron comprises an anti-drip system to prevent water from dripping on the
cloths during steam ironing, if the temperature of the iron gets too low. The anti-
drip system may emit a “click”, particularly when the iron is heating up or cooling
down. This is quite normal and does not mean that the iron is defective.
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
it is placed in a vertical position and has not been moved for about 10 minutes.
If the iron is placed horizontally on the soleplate, it will be switched off after 30
seconds if it has not been moved within that period of time.
