• To prevent shiny spots, articles made of synthetic material or silk should
be ironed inside out. Do not use the spray function, as spraying could
cause stains.
Filling with water (for steam-ironing and spraying)
- Unplug the iron before you fill it (or before you pour out the remaining
water). Set the steam control (B) to position O (= no steam) (fig. 2).
• Fill the iron with normal tap water when using it for the first time.
• For refilling, you can also use tap water. However, if the water is very
hard, it is advisable to use distilled water.
Do not put vinegar, starch, chemically descaled water or
descaling agents in the water reservoir!
- Pour water into the filling aperture to the maximum (max) level (fig. 3).
Setting the temperature (see table)
- Put the iron on its heel.
- Set the temperature control (A) to the correct ironing temperature (fig. 4).
- Insert the mains plug into the wall socket.
- The iron is ready to be used after the amber temperature pilot light (E)
has first gone off and then come on again.
• The amber pilot light (E) will come on from time to time during ironing.
• If you set the temperature control (A) to a lower setting after ironing at a
high temperature, do not resume ironing until after the amber pilot light
(E) has come on and has gone off again. If you don’t wait for the light to
go out again, you run the risk of scorching the fabric.
Ironing without steam (see table)
- Set the Steam control (B) to position O (= no steam) (fig. 2).
• For more details on how to switch on the iron, see the section headed
“Setting the temperature”.
