Note
With the fixed, optimal temperature setting, all ironable
textiles can be ironed without additional temperature
setting.
Smooth delicate fabrics and imprints on the back with
steam without direct contact with the iron. Steaming the
fabrics at a distance of 2 to 3 cm will gently straighten
the fibres.
Note
The iron is fitted with an automatic switch-off which
switches off the device if it has not been moved for more
than 5 minutes. This automatic shut-off increases safety
and saves energy as the iron does not heat up continu-
ously. The iron will switch back on as soon as it is moved
and start heating up.
Note
The iron can be held vertically for steaming curtains,
dresses, etc.

3. Before ironing and after pauses in the ironing pro-
cess, direct the blast of steam onto a cloth until the
steam flows evenly.
