Distilled and demineralised water as well as softening agents
must not be poured in the water tank, as such liquids may
damage the metallic parts of the iron and discolour the fabric.
Any damage to the iron or the garment, that indicates that
water other than tap water has been used, is not covered by
the warranty. Possible use of other liquids can be ascertained
by our repair shop.
If you live in an area with very hard water (this is more than 17 ph)
you should clean the steam chamber regularly in order to avoid
lime deposits. Follow the self-cleaning procedure described later
in this instruction manual. The iron is furthermore equipped
with a built-in anti-lime filter (not changeable), which has been
designed to reduce the building up of limestone in the steam
chamber and thus prolong the lifetime of the iron. The anti-lime
filter will, however, not entirely prevent the natural building up
of limestone in the steam chamber and it is therefore important
to follow the self-cleaning procedure at regular intervals.
Steam ironing
Stem ironing is only possible at high temperatures •• and ••• (as
per the indications:
SILK
or
LIN/COT WOOL
) at the temperature
indicator. See the above section.
Make sure that the appliance is not connected to a wall outlet.
Add water through the filling inlet; the water tank should be
filled at least up to ¼ (never exceed the MAX level). Remember
first to set the steam selector at to prevent water from
running out.
• Plug the switch to a wall outlet and set the wanted temperature
and wait until the signal lamp goes out.
• Finally, set the steam selector at optional amount of steam
(1-3) and start ironing.
