Ironing hanging fabrics
Delicate fabrics (e.g. jackets, coats and curtains) can be steam ironed without
putting them on an ironing board. This way, you can give the surface of woollen
sweaters or jackets more volume.
Steam will continue to emerge until the water in the water tank has been
used up. If the amount of steam decreases while you are ironing, press
the steam release button to switch off the steam ironing function to allow
more steam to build up again inside the pressurised steam container.
