IMPORTANT!
The steam is hot when you use the burst of steam, and therefore keep
children away to avoid burns. Keep your fingers off the steam jet when
this function is on.
Vertical Ironing
The iron can also be used for vertical ironing, which is perfect for removing
creases on hanging clothes, curtains etc. The process is the same as for burst of
steam (see that section), but the iron is to be held in a vertical position about 15
to 30 cm away from the garment to be ironed.
Dry Ironing
Switch the steam selector to position “0” (closed). Set the temperature at the
wanted temperature and wait until the thermostat light goes out. The iron is now
ready for use.
If there is water in the tank, you can also use the spray function and the burst of
steam function (see special sections) when dry ironing, if this is required in order
to obtain a good result. Just make sure, when using burst of steam during dry
ironing that the temperature regulation has been set at this function.
Spray
Spray (atomisation of water) is used to dampen dry garments and difficult creases.
Press the spray button all the way down, and water particles will be sprayed on
the garments for easier ironing and a better result.
It can also be an advantage to use the spray function for delicate fabrics (synthetic
fabric) that are ironed at low temperatures and where you cannot use a specific
burst of steam.
Anti-drip System
The iron comprises an anti-drip system to prevent water from dripping on the
clothes during steam ironing, should the temperature of the soleplate be too
low. The anti-drip system may emit a loud ’click’, particularly when the iron is
heating up and cooling down. This is quite normal and does not mean that the
iron is defective. If this ‘click’ is heard during ironing it indicates that the amount
of steam is too important for the chosen temperature. Either reduce the amount
of steam or increase the temperature.
If, contrary to expectation, some water drops should occur, this does not mean
that the iron is defective, but it can indicate that the water tank is about to being
empty or that the iron needs to be descaled.
