OptimalTEMP technology
The OptimalTEMP technology enables you to iron all types of ironable fabrics, in any order, without adjusting the iron
temperature and without sorting your garments.
It is safe to just rest the hot soleplate directly on the ironing board (Fig. 2) without putting back to the iron platform. This
will help reduce the stress on your wrist.
Compact ProVelocity technology
This technology delivers continuous steam that penetrates deeply to remove creases easily. At the same time, it keeps
the appliance more compact and lighter than traditional steam generators, for easier storage.
Preparing for use
Type of water to use
This appliance has been designed to be used with tap water. However, if you live in an area with hard water, fast scale
build-up may occur. Therefore, it is recommended to use distilled or demineralized water to prolong the lifetime of the
appliance.
Warning: Do not use perfumed water, water from the tumble dryer, vinegar, starch, descaling agents, ironing aids,
chemically descaled water or other chemicals, as they may cause water spitting, brown staining or damage to your
appliance.
Filling the water tank
Fill the water tank before every use or when the water level in the water tank drops below the minimum level. You can
rell the water tank at any time during use.

Note: The pump is activated each time you press the steam trigger. It produces subtle rattling sound, which is normal.
When there is no water in the water tank, the pump sound is louder. Fill up the water tank with water when the water
level drops below the minimum level.
Steam boost function
1 Press the steam trigger twice quickly to release a powerful boost of steam for 3 seconds (Fig. 10).
Note: It is recommended to use the steam boost function only for stubborn crease.
Vertical ironing
Warning: Hot steam is emitted from the iron. Never attempt to remove wrinkles from a garment while someone is
wearing it (Fig. 11). Do not apply steam near your or someone else’s hand.
You can use the steam iron in vertical position to remove wrinkles from hanging fabrics.
1 Hold the iron in vertical position, press the steam trigger and touch the garment lightly with the soleplate and move
the iron up and down (Fig. 12).

While rearranging your garment, you can rest the iron either on the iron platform or horizontally on the ironing board
(Fig. 2). The OptimalTEMP technology ensures the soleplate will not damage the ironing board cover.
