3 Preparation
3.1 Initial use
1. Remove all packaging materials, labels and protective foil and dispose
of them according to the applicable
legal regulations.
2. Clean the outer parts of the appliance as described in the section
“Cleaning and maintenance“.
3. Place the appliance on an even,
stable, dry and non-slip surface.
4. Place the iron onto the storage base
“10”.
During first use, a slight
odour may occur as a
result of manufacturing
residues being burnt

off. This is harmless
and will only last for a
short time. Ensure for
sufficient ventilation.
Never immerse the
steam ironing station
in water or any other
liquid. Do not fill in the
steam ironing station
with vinegar, descaling
agents, starch, perfume
or ironing aids.
When ironing for the
first time, use an old,
clean cloth so that
manufacturing residues
can be removed from
the soleplate “9”.
3.2 Saving energy
This product has an ECO steam generation setting.
By using this setting, you can save
40% energy in comparison to the
maximum steam generation setting
with normal usage (Tested according
to EN 60311+A1 clause 11).
Many linen types can be ironed well
with ECO steam setting.
To save energy:
• You should use the appropriate heat
setting. If you don’t know the appropriate heat setting, start from the
lowest heat setting and increase it
until linen can be ironed well.
• Your product can generate enough
steam in ECO mode to iron many
linen types. We suggest you to start
using your product with ECO setting.
If you don’t know the appropriate
steam setting, start from the lowest
steam setting and increase it until
linen can be ironed well.
• For better ironing, try using the
steam with pulse actions. Using
the steam continuously will cause
more moisture residue on your linen
and this may cause your linen to
wrinkle back while losing the extra
moisture.

3 Preparation
• Your product has an Auto off feature
to save energy and improve your
safety. We still suggest you to turn
off your product during long waiting
durations without waiting for the
Auto off function.
3.3 Tips for ironing
• Prior to ironing, always check the
garment label to ensure the correct
tempearture is set on the iron.
• Since the iron heats up much
quicker than it cools down, synthetic
textiles, silk or similarfabrics should
be ironed using lower temperature
settings first.
• If the garment is made of combined
types of fabric, always begin with
the lowest temperature setting first.
• Silk and other textiles that tend to
shine should be ironed inside out.
Velvet and other types of fabric that
shine should be ironed with very
little pressure and only in one direction. Always keep moving the iron
while ironing.
• Do not use the steam function when
ironing coloured silk. This could
cause stains.
• Garments made of 100% pure wool
can be ironed using steam. Set the
temperature control dial preferably
to the MAX setting and lay a dry
towel between the garment and
the iron.
• Ironing wool garments can cause
them to ‘shine’. It is therefore recommended to iron such garments
inside out.
WARNING: Never iron
on metal parts, such as
zippers, rivets, or metal
buttons as they could
A
damage the soleplate.
Always iron around
these metal parts.
3.4 Storage
If you will not be using the steam iron
for a long period of time, please store
it away carefully.
• Make sure that the iron is discon-
nected from the power supply and
completely dry when storing it away.
• Empty the water tank.
• Open the water drainage screw and
let the remaining water drain out of
the iron. Screw in the water drainage screw again and tighten it.
• To store away the steam ironing
station, wind the steam hose “2”
and the power cable around the
cable storage holder “6” and secure
them with the clamping bracket.
• Please try to store the steam iron
and the attachments in their original
packaging.
• Store it in a cool, dry place.
• Make sure the appliance is always
kept out of the reach of children.
