SAFETY INFORMATION
• Incorrect operation and improper use can damage the appliance and cause injury to the user.
• The appliance may be used only for it’s intended purpose. No responsibility can be taken for any
possible damage caused through incorrect use or improper handling.
• Before connecting the appliance to the power source, check that the current and power match
those given on the rating plate.
• Do not put the appliance or the plug in water or any other liquid. However should the appliance
accidentally fall into water, unplug the appliance immediately and have it checked by a qualified
person before using it again. Non-observance could cause a fatal electric shock!
• Never attempt to open the housing yourself.
• Do not place any kind of object into the inside of the housing.
• Do not use the appliance with wet hands, on a damp floor or when the appliance itself is wet.
• Do not touch the plug with wet or damp hands.
• Check the cord and the plug regularly for any possible damage. If the cord or plug is damaged, it
must be replaced by the manufacturer or a qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
• Do not use the appliance if it is dropped or otherwise damaged or if the cord or plug are damaged.
In the case of damage, take the appliance to an electrical repair shop for examination and repair if
necessary.
• Never attempt to repair the appliance yourself. This could cause an electric shock.
• Do not allow the cord to hang over sharp edges and keep it well away from hot objects and naked
flames. Remove the plug from the socket only by holding the plug.
• For extra protection it is possible to fit the electric household installation with a fault current
breaker with a rated breaking current of not more than 30mA. Ask your electrician for advice.
• Make sure that there is no danger that the cord or extension cord may inadvertently be pulled or
cause anyone to trip when in use.
• If an extension cord is used it must be suited to the power consumption of the appliance,
otherwise overheating of the extension cord and/or plug may occur.
• This appliance is not suitable for commercial use nor for use in the open air.
• Never leave the appliance unattended while it is in use.
• Children cannot recognise the dangers involved in the incorrect use of electrical appliances.
Therefore never allow children to use household appliances without supervision.
• Always remove the plug from the socket when the appliance is not in use and each time before it
is cleaned.
• Danger! Nominal voltage is still present in the appliance as long as the appliance is connected to
the mains socket.
• Switch the appliance off before disconnecting from the mains.
• Never use the cord to carry the appliance.
BEFORE INITIAL USAGE
• Remove all packaging material.
• Clean the iron base (7) (see Cleaning and Care).
• Fill distilled water into the water fill-in opening (9) up to the max marking of the water tank (5). For
this, use the measuring cup. (11). When the measuring cup is filled up to the MAX marking, the
water tank will also be filled to the max marking. Do not use chemically de-calcified water.
• Insert the power plug (4) into a designated outlet and set the temperature regulator (6) on the
highest temperature setting, MAX/LINEN. The operation display (2) will light up. When this light
fades, set the steam selection switch (10) to position and iron on an old piece of cloth to
remove possible residue.
• With first use, there can be a slight odour or smoke. But this is harmless and only of short
duration. Make sure there is adequate ventilation.
OPERATION
Dry ironing
• For dry ironing, the water tank does not need to be filled.
• To dry iron, set the steam selection switch (10) to position .
• Insert the power plug into a designated outlet and turn the temperature regulator (6) clockwise to
set the desired temperature. The operation display will light up. As soon as the desired
temperature is reached, it will fade out. When the iron surface cools, the operation display will light
up again, to show that the iron surface is heating up once more.
