Before first use

Carefully remove the steam iron from packaging.

Remove the cardboard and tissue paper from the soleplate (14).

Clean the outside of the iron with a damp cloth and a mild detergent.

Loosen the tie (11) and completely unwind the power cord (11).

When using the iron for the first time, we recommend testing it on a spare piece of fabric to ensure that the soleplate (14) and water reservoir (12) are completely clean.

The iron may produce an odor and give off smoke when first switched on, as residues from the production process are eliminated. This is normal and does not indicate a defect or hazard.

The iron may spit or sputter during the first few uses with tap water. This happens as the steam chamber becomes conditioned. This will stop after a few uses.

Color-changing indicator and buzzer signal

This iron is equipped with a color-changing indicator (13) on both sides of the water reservoir (12) and a buzzer. The fabric setting display (7) shows the setting in corresponding colors ( Fabric setting chart).

Press the fabric setting button (7) repeatedly, until the desired setting is displayed ( Fabric setting chart).

The fabric setting display (7) and the color-changing indicator (13) flash until the set temperature is reached.

After the set temperature is reached, the fabric setting display (7) and the color- changing indicator (13) stop flashing and light up continuously in the corresponding color.

The buzzer beeps once.

When the iron switches off automatically ( Auto shut-off function), the fabric setting display (7) and color-changing indicator (13) start flashing again. The buzzer beeps six times.
