Unpacking
Take the unit out of the carton. Remove all pieces of
the packing. Remove any possibly extant labels on
the unit (do not remove the rating plate).
Insert anti-limescale fi lter cartridge
•
Remove the anti-limescale fi lter cartridge (7)
from the polybag and follow the instructions
given on the pack.

Open the water tank lid (6).
•
Insert the anti-limescale fi lter cartridge into

Close the water tank lid.
Note:
If no anti-limescale fi lter cartridge is installed,
or the anti-limescale fi lter cartridge is not installed
correctly, the appliance will not work correctly.
(A) Filling the water tank
•
Make sure that the iron is unplugged.
•
Open the tank lid (6) and fi ll the water tank with
tap water, taking care not to exceed the «max»
level. If you have extremely hard water, we
recommend that you use a mixture of 50 % tap
water and 50 % demineralised water. Do not add
any additives (e.g. perfumes and other chemical
materials). Do not use condensation water from a
tumble dryer.
•
Place the appliance on a stable, level surface.
Before fi rst use
When you use the appliance for the fi rst time, press
the steam button (2) for about 60 seconds and hold
the iron horizontally to pull the steam through to the
soleplate.
When steam is ready for the fi rst time we
recommend to iron for a few minutes over a rag
to avoid manufacturing residues can dirty your
garments.
(B) Start into operation
Before start ironing follow the garment care label
instructions carefully. Fabrics with this symbol
are not ironable.
•
Place the iron on the iron rest (4), unwind
completely the power cord and plug in.
•
The iron will start to heat up and the temperature
control LED (1) on the iron will fl ash. Once the
iron is ready the temperature control LED is
permanently on.
•
For ironing with steam, press the steam button (2)
below the iron handle. Steam will come out from
the holes in the soleplate.
•
For dry ironing, iron without pressing the steam
button. Please note that after 10 minutes of dry
ironing, the iron switches to the auto-off mode.
For best results
•
Always iron black and dark garments inside out to
avoid getting a sheen on the fabrics from the iron.
•
When ironing a shirt, start with the more diffi
cult
parts like collar, cuff links and sleeves. Then iron
the bigger parts like front and back, so you can
prevent wrinkling the bigger parts when you are
ironing the other parts.
•
When you iron a collar, start on its underside and
work from the outside (the pointy end) inwards.
Turn over and repeat. Fold down the collar and
press the edge for a more crisp fi nish.
