- Close the steam tank
by turning the screw
cap clockwise by hand
until tight (fig. 3).
If you begin ironing
- Fill the steam tank before inserting the mains
plug into the wall socket.
While ironing
Caution: If heated-up, the steam tank will be
under pressure.
Only refill if the steam tank is empty (i.e. when
no more steam comes from the soleplate during
steam-ironing).
- Switch the iron off by
setting switch (C) to
position
O
(fig. 4).
- Switch the steam tank
off by setting
switch (B) to position O
(fig. 5).
- Remove the mains
plug from the wall
socket.
- Using the spanner,
carefully unscrew the
cap of the steam tank
(anti-clockwise) until
you can hear steam
escaping (fig. 6).
Wait for the hissing
sound to stop.
This high-pitched sound is completely normal
and is not dangerous.
- Carefully unscrew the cap of the steam tank
further, until you hear the hissing sound again.
Wait again until the sound stops. Proceed in the
same manner until the cap is unscrewed.
- Wait for a few minutes. Then slowly pour
water into the filling opening (D) (fig. 2).
- Close the steam tank by turning the screw cap
manually (clockwise) until tight (fig. 3).
Steam-ironing
• As indicated on the temperature dial (H) and
the table, steam-ironing is only possible at
higher ironing temperatures, so set the dial to
2
or
3
.
- Insert the mains plug
into a wall socket.
- Set switch "Steam
tank On/Off" (B) to
position |. The pilot
light in the switch will
come on (fig. 7).
• The iron heats up
faster than the steam
tank. Hence you can
switch on the iron a
few minutes later than
the steam tank.
- Select the required
ironing temperature
with the temperature
dial (H) (fig. 8).
- Set switch
"Iron On/Off" (C) to
position |. The pilot
light in the switch as
well as pilot light (G)
will come on (fig. 9)
- After a few minutes,
pilot light (G) will go
out. This indicates that
the soleplate has
reached the set
temperature.
- When pilot light (B) goes out, this indicates that
the steam tank is heated up and that steam is
ready. You can now start steam ironing.
- To select the required
steam output rotate
the steam control (I)
clockwise (fig. 10).
The further the control
is rotated clockwise,
the more steam is
produced.
