Tips for ironing
•
Prior to ironing, always check the garment label
to ensure the correct temperature is set on the
iron.
•
Since the iron heats up much quicker than it
cools down, synthetic textiles, silk or similar fab-
rics should be ironed using lower temperature
settings first.
•
If the garment is made of combined types of fab-
ric, always begin with the lowest temperature
setting first.
•
Silk and other textiles that tend to shine should
be ironed inside out. Velvet and other types of
fabric that shine should be ironed with very little
pressure and only in one direction. Always keep
moving the iron while ironing.
•
Do not use the steam function when ironing col-
oured silk. This could cause stains.
•
Garments made of 100% pure wool can be
ironed using steam. Set the temperature control
dial preferably to the MAX setting and lay a dry
towel between the garment and the iron.
•
Ironing wool garments can cause them to
'shine'. It is therefore recommended to iron such
garments inside out.
Caution
•
Never iron on metal parts, such as zippers, riv-
ets, or metal buttons as they could damage the
soleplate. Always iron around these metal parts.
Cleaning and care
Caution
1
Turn off and unplug the appliance before each
cleaning process.
2
Wait until your iron cools down completely.
3
Use a slightly damp cloth to clean the outer
surface of the iron. Then wait until it dries
completely.
4
Wipe the sediments and residues on the
soleplate with a slightly damp cloth and soft,
nonabrasive liquid cleaner as necessary.
Caution
•
When you finished ironing, unplug the appliance.
Drain the water in the tank. You can drain the
water in the iron by opening the refill lid
F
, tilting
the iron to the front.
•
Never use gasoline, solvent and abrasive clean-
ing agents or hard brushes to clean this appli-
ance.
Storage
If you do not intend to use the steam iron for a long
time, please store it carefully.
•
Make sure that the iron is unplugged and cooled
down completely before storing it.
•
Empty the water tank.
•
Please keep the steam iron and its accessories
in their original packages.
•
Store them in a cool and dry place.
•
Make sure that the appliance is stored in a place
out of the reach of children.
