[. . . ] · Do not leave the appliance alone when switched on. Even when leaving the room for only a short period remove the plug. Keep children away from the appliance. Please read these operating instructions carefully. Above all please observe the safety instructions on the initial pages of these operating instructions! [. . . ] 0 Heat the appliance and place it with the soleplate facing downwards on an iron rest or plate (Figure 5) to allow the water to steam through and activate the steam chamber. 3 Dry ironing 0 Set the steam switch (Figure 1/F) to position "0" (Figure 4/A). 0 Turn the temperature selector to the desired temperature. You will obtain optimal steaming results and the noise produced by the steaming will be steadier after the water reservoir has been filled and drained three times. Ironing with steam To steam iron, set the temperature selector (Figure 1/N) to the required fabric type and wait until the power indicator (Figure 1/J) goes out ­ only then set the steam switch (Figue 1/F) to position "1" (Figure 4/B). You will 6 g find which temperature setting (fabric type) matches which steam setting in the ironing table. As soon as the iron is held horizontally steam begins to form. When the iron is set upright again the steam supply stops automatically. Storage Remove the plug from the socket!Set the temperature selector (Figure 1/N) to the "Cold" position (Figure 2/A) and the steam switch (Figure 1/F) to position "0" (Figure 4/A). To store properly wrap the mains cord around the cord storage (Figures 1/K and 8). Spray function (Figure 6/A) The first time you use the appliance, or if you have not used it for a long time, you will need to press the spray button (Figure 1/G) several times before water comes out of the spray nozzle (Figure 1/D). You can also use the spray function when dry ironing. Care and maintenance Self-cleaning function We recommend carrying out selfcleaning every two weeks. However, the period between self-cleaning should be shorter for harder water types. Carry out the self-cleaning function as follows: Unplug from the mains. Set the steam switch (Figure 1/F) to position "0" (Figure 4/A). Fill the water reservoir (Figure 1/O) to the "MAX"mark. Set the temperature selector (Figure 1/N) to "MAX". Wait until the power indicator (Figure 1/J) goes out. Set the steam switch (Figure 1/F) to the "Self Clean" position (Figure 4/C) and hold it firmly in place. Steam and hot water will now run out of the steam exit holes (Figure 1/C). Move the iron gently to and fro above the sink until the water reservoir is empty. Allow the iron to cool and wipe the soleplate dry with a soft cloth. Super steam jet function (Figure 6/B) The super steam jet is of valuable assistance when ironing, for example, creases, embroidery etc. You can trigger the additional steam jet both when steam ironing and when dry ironing. Set the temperature selector (Figure 1/N) to the "MAX" position and wait until the correct temperature has been reached, i. e. , until the power indicator (Figure 1/J) goes out. Raise the steam iron a little away from the material and press the steam jet button (Figure 1/H). Always wait another 5 seconds before pressing the steam jet button again. [. . . ] Please inquire with your local authority about your local recycling centre. What to do, if . . . · no "Steam" appears when using on a steam setting?­ In warm, dry air (during the winter) a smaller jet of steam is normal because it is taken up by the dry air before condensing. ­ Emptying the filled water reservoir can wash out fluff. Remove the mains cord and tip the filled appliance forwards at an angle (Figure 7) so that the water can run out of the filling hole. [. . . ]
