[. . . ] · Never dip the appliance in water! 12 g · Always place the hot iron horizontally on the iron rest-plate (fig. · While ironing stand the base on a stable surface to ensure a sufficient circulation of air under the appliance. · Iron bases with a wooden surface should be protected from moisture with an oilcloth or similar material. · The connecting cable must not be bent nor wound around the hot iron. Only store the appliance when cool. [. . . ] It must lie on the floor of the tank. Ironing 0 Fill the water tank (fig. Refer to "Water quality" for choice of water. 1 Never fill the water tank with hot water. Never add alcoholic substances or essences (perfume, eau de Cologne, lavender water, etc. ) to the water. 0 Set the temperature selector for steam-ironing between GG and GGG (fig. 8). 13 g 0 Wait until the steam generator temperature indication lamp in the base extinguishes (approx. 12) Select the steam volume according to the type and condition of the textiles: very dry or damp textiles, textiles which absorb water to a greater or lesser degree. 2/R) If the steam button is pressed, the iron produces a strong jet of steam for several seconds before the steam emission is normal again. To produce this effect again stop the steam output for a few seconds and the special TURBO SHOT system regulates the maximum steam output without undesired emission of water. 1 3 If there is no more water in the tank, the steam jet button should no longer be operated. Owing to the high steam capacity, the steam jet button need only be pressed briefly each time. Short, repeated pressing of the steam jet button is enough to obtain a continuous and sufficient amount of steam. With intensive use steam can still be emitted after releasing the steam jet button and water can therefore condense on the rest plate. In this case the descaling cartridge lasts for 1 to 2 years (depending on amount of ironing and steam volume). The descaling cartridge must always remain in the water tank however. 3 The steam jet button should only be used again when the steam generator temperature indication lamp has extinguished. Storage Switch off with on/off switch (fig. If the unit is stored in a horizontal position, the water tank must not be emptied. Directions for measuring the water hardness (fig. 14) A test bar is included with the appliance to estimate the hardness of your mains water. Move the test bar lightly to and fro for a few seconds and wait for one minute. Recommendation 1 or 1½ purple colored fields: mains water can be used. 2 or more purple fields: we recommend the use of commercially available distilled water. 0 0 1 If the unit is stored in the vertical position or before every transport or dispatch and if stored for a long period, the water tank must be emptied. If there is a risk of frost the water tank must be emptied in any case! · · 16 g Maintenance and care The sole-plate of the iron can be contaminated by remains of washing agent and by the finish of fabrics and fibres and it then no longer slides smoothly over the material. The iron should therefore be rubbed over with a fluff-free cloth after ironing. Marks and deposits difficult to remove should be treated with an iron cleaning pencil. · Cardboard packing can be taken to used paper collection points.
