DB22 STEAM IRON
INSTRUCTIONS
6. Turn the steam setting switch (8) (Fig. E) and hold the
iron horizontal; steam starts to come out of the holes.
If the iron does not emit any steam tap the sole lightly
against the ironing surface. When the iron is put down in
a vertical position the emission of steam is interrupted.
N.B. Never touch the steam and never direct it at
anyone.
7. After finishing ironing, turn the temperature dial to the MIN position, disconnect
from the mains and empty the reservoir. The water reservoir must be emptied
every time after using the iron. To do this proceed as follows:
Set the steam setting switch to the ironing without steam
position 0, open the lid (5) and empty the reservoir (Fig. F).
Stand the iron on its rest until it has cooled down.
Note:
If it should be necessary to top up the water
reservoir during ironing, disconnect from the mains before
removing the reservoir to refill it.
Spraying (Fig. H)
There must be water in the reservoir if this function is to be used.
Press the spray jet button
(7) (Fig. H) when you need spray
water to moisten dry and difficult to iron fabrics e.g. linen, cotton
or wool or to make it easier to iron out stubborn creases. The
spray function can be used in the same way to moisten
any creases made unintentionally. The spray water emerges from
the spray jet (3).
Note:
When using the iron for the first time
you may have to press the spray jet button several times before
the spray water emerges.
Extra Steam (Fig. I)
Make sure that the temperature dial is positioned within the
steam range and that there is water in the water reservoir if
you want to use this function. When the temperature dial is set
to the MAX position the steam volume is higher. When the iron
has reached the set temperature. press firmly on the burst of
steam button (6) (Fig. I) to iron more quickly or to smooth
out stubborn creases. Always wait at least 5 seconds before using
the extra steam button again so the iron can heat up again to
attain the maximum volume of extra steam.
Vertical steaming:
The extra steam function is also effective
when the iron is in the vertical position. To use this function, hold
the iron vertically at a distance of some 5 to 15 cm from the fabric
and press the steam jet button (Fig. J).
N.B. Never touch the steam and never direct it at anyone.
