– Wipe the iron body and the boiler body (14) with a
soft cloth.
– Make sure that the voltage of the mains corresponds
to the operating voltage of the unit.
– Place the unit on a flat steady heat- and water-resis-
tant surface so that it is on the same level with your
ironing board. When setting the steam station on the
ironing board, make sure that the ironing board is
reliable and steady.

USING THE UNIT
– Place the unit on a flat steady heat- and water-resis-
tant surface so that it is on the same level with your
ironing board. When setting the steam station on the
ironing board, make sure that the ironing board is
reliable and steady.
– While the first switching on the heating element
burns, therefore occurrence of a small amount of
smoke or extraneous smell is possible, it is normal.
– After switching the unit on and during the opera-
tion you will hear characteristic sounds of a working
pump. These sounds are caused by normal opera-
tion and are not a malfunction.
– Before using the unit, iron a piece of cloth to clean
the steam ducts of the iron soleplate (6) and the
boiler. During the first operation some particles may
appear from the iron soleplate (6) openings, it is nor-
mal and not a malfunction.
– After setting the required soleplate (6) temperature
with the temperature control knob (9), the sole-
plate starts heating up, during the heating of the
soleplate (6) some water may leak from the sole-
plate steam openings or some steam may appear.
It is normal.
Attention! The boiler body (14), the iron rest (4), the
iron soleplate (6) and the steam hose (16) heat up
during the operation, do not touch the hot surfaces of
the unit, take the iron by its handle (7) only.
– Make sure that the steam hose (16) doesn’t bend
and twist during the operation.
– When using the steam station for the first time or in
case you haven’t used the steam station for some time,
press the steam supply button (8) several times, direct-
ing the steam away from the clothes. This will remove
the condensate from the steam hose (16).
– Constant temperature of the soleplate (6) is main-
tained during the operation; the indicator (10) peri-
odically lights up and goes out.
