Filling the Internal Water Reservoir
CAUTION!
❐
Always pull out the plug before you top up/empty the water reservoir. Always pull the
plug and never the cable.
❐
Never pour any additives into the water reservoir. This could destroy the device and
safe working is no longer guaranteed.
❐
Never exceed the maximum
fi
ll level (note
MAX
marking on the water reservoir!).
The useful service life of the device will be extended if you use pure distilled water.
For steam-ironing just a few garments, it is suf
fi
cient if you
fi
ll the internal water reservoir
of the device with water.
1. Make sure that the device is
not
connected to the mains power. Move the steam
quantity control (
2
) to position
.
2. Place the iron upright on its base (
12
) on a
fl
at surface and
fl
ip open the water reservoir catch (
20
). Please note that
the catch cannot be completely detached from the device.
3. Fill the reservoir up to the
MAX
marking (
17
) with the aid of
the measuring cup which is supplied. The reservoir holds
approx. 250 ml.
4. Close the water reservoir by
fl
ipping the cover shut again.
Make sure that the water reservoir is completely sealed
shut.
Filling/Using the External Water Reservoir in the Storage Station
If you want to iron a large number of garments, we recommend that you use the external
water reservoir. It holds 1.4 litres and does not need to be topped up as often as the
smaller internal water reservoir of the iron. This allows you to work faster.
1. Make sure that the device is
not
in the storage station.
2. Flip open the water reservoir catch (
27
). Please note that
the catch cannot be completely detached from the device.
3. Fill the reservoir up to the
MAX
marking (
25
). You can ei-
ther use the measuring cup or hold the feed opening di-
rectly beneath a tap.
4. Close the water reservoir by
fl
ipping the cover shut again.
Make sure that the water reservoir is completely sealed
shut.
5. Place the storage station on a
fl
at, stable surface and position the iron on top of it.
