  BURST OF STEAM

M

To remove stubborn wrinkles or press in
a sharp crease, use the burst of steam
button.

M

Press the button firmly, a strong burst of
steam penetrates deep into the fabric.

M

Leave an interval of at least four seconds
between pressing the burst of steam
button.

M

With water in the tank, the burst of
steam button can be used as soon as the
steam ironing temperature has been
reached (

●●●

)

  Vertical steam

M

The iron can also be used vertically.
This is especially useful for getting
creases out of hanging clothes, curtains,
draperies, etc.

WARNING:
Never iron clothes while they are
being worn.

  DRY IRONING

M

Slide the variable steam control fully to
the left. We recommend dry ironing with
an empty tank to be sure there are no
drips, but it can also be performed with
water in the tank.

  AFTER IRONING

M

Unplug the iron. Slide the variable steam control completely to the
left (the minimum position) and empty any water left in the tank.
Leave the iron to cool down.

  Integrated cord wrap

M

For easy storage, the cord can be wound
loosely around the heel once the iron
has cooled down completely.

M

To protect the soleplate always store the
iron on its heel.
