Check if the dual voltage selector has been set to
the local mains voltage before you connect the

voltage selector with a coin. Always reset the selector
to position 220/240V after use. This prevents damage
if you inadvertently connect the iron to the wrong
voltage.
-
Do not use the appliance if the plug, the mains cord
or the appliance itself shows visible damage, or if the
appliance has been dropped or leaks.

Use an earthed adapter plug if the mains plug does
not match the local wall socket.

Do not connect the appliance to a wall socket
intended for shavers.
-
Do not use the iron in your hotel room
simultaneously with another high-wattage appliance
(e.g. a hairdryer) to avoid blowing the fuse.

2
Before first use
1
Remove any sticker or protective foil from the
soleplate.
2
Let the iron heat up to maximum temperature and
pass the iron over a piece of damp cloth for several
minutes to remove any residues from the soleplate.
Preparing for use
Filling the water tank
1
Make sure the appliance is unplugged and the steam
control is set to position O (no steam).
2
Open the cap of the filling opening (Fig. 2).
3
Fill the water tank with tap water up to the
maximum level. (Fig. 3)
If the tap water is very hard, we advise you to use distilled
water.
Do not fill the water tank beyond the MAX indication.
Do not put perfume, vinegar, starch, descaling agents,
ironing aids or other chemicals in the water tank.
4
Close the cap of the filling opening ('click') (Fig. 4).
Setting the temperature
1
Check the laundry care label for the required
ironing temperature.
-
1 Synthetic fabrics (e.g. acrylic, nylon, polyamide,
polyester)
-
1 Silk
-
2 Wool
-
3 Cotton, linen
2
Set the temperature control to the required ironing
temperature (Fig. 5).
3
Place the iron on its heel (Fig. 6).
4
Put the mains plug in an earthed wall socket.

When the temperature-ready light has gone out,
wait a while before you start ironing.
Tips
-
If the article consists of various kinds of fibres, always
select the temperature required by the most delicate
fibre, i.e. the lowest temperature. If, for example, the
fabric consists of 60% polyester and 40% cotton, it
has to be ironed at the temperature indicated for
polyester ( 1).
-
If you do not know what kind or kinds of fabric
an article is made of, determine the right ironing
temperature by ironing a part that is not visible when
you wear or use the article.
-
Silk, woollen and synthetic materials: iron the reverse
side of the fabric to prevent shiny patches.
-
Fabrics that tend to acquire shiny patches should be
ironed in one direction only (along with the nap)
while applying very little pressure.
-
Start ironing the articles that require the lowest
ironing temperature, i.e. those made of synthetic
materials.
Using the appliance
Note: The iron may give off some smoke when you use it for
the first time. This stops after a short while.
Steam ironing
1
Make sure that there is enough water in the water
tank (see chapter 'Preparing for use', section 'Filling
the water tank').
2
Set the required ironing temperature (see
chapter 'Preparing for use', section 'Setting the
temperature') (Fig. 5).
Steam ironing is only possible at temperature setting
3.
3
Set the steam control to position \. (Fig. 8)
The iron starts to produce steam as soon as
,
it reaches the set temperature.
Ironing without steam
1
Set the required ironing temperature (see
chapter 'Preparing for use', section 'Setting the
temperature') (Fig. 5).
2
Set the steam control to position O (no
steam) (Fig. 9).
Steam boost
The steam boost provides extra steam to remove very
stubborn creases.
1
Make sure that there is enough water in the water
tank.
2
Set the required ironing temperature (see
chapter 'Preparing for use', section 'Setting the
temperature') (Fig. 5).
The steam boost function can only be used at
temperature setting 3.
3
Press and release the steam boost button (Fig. 10).
Ironing without ironing board
-
When you are travelling, an ironing board is often
not at hand. In this case, use a cotton towel on a firm
flat surface. (Fig. 11)
Make sure that the surface is heat-resistant and moisture-
resistant. Do not use a glass or plastic surface.
Cleaning
1
Place the iron on its heel.
2
Remove the mains plug from the wall socket and let
the iron cool down for at least 30 minutes.
3
Clean the appliance with a damp cloth.
To keep the soleplate smooth, avoid hard contact with
metal objects. Never use a scouring pad, vinegar or
other chemicals to clean the soleplate.
Storage

Set the steam control to position O (no steam).
2
Place the iron on its heel.
3
Remove the mains plug from the wall socket and let
the iron cool down for at least 30 minutes.

Wind the mains cord round the appliance (Fig. 13).
6
Store the appliance in the pouch (specific types
only).
