good time, as the pump sound increases.
●
Turn the steam generator off after use.
Replace the iron on its rest on the steam
generator and remove the plug from the
wall socket.
Steam jet
When the steam jet button is depressed, jets
of steam are emitted through the openings in
the sole plate. This function can be very
useful when removing stubborn creases or
when ironing difficult or thick fabrics.
The same function may also be used with the
iron held vertically, to remove creases or
wrinkles from fabrics.
For extended steam output, push the slide
control towards the handle while keeping
the steam jet button depressed.
Push the slide control forward again to end
the extended steam output.
General care and cleaning
●
Before cleaning the appliance, ensure it is
disconnected from the power supply and
has completely cooled down.
●
To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not
clean the appliance with water and do
not immerse it in water.
●
Do not use abrasives or harsh cleaning
solutions.
- If necessary, the appliance may be wiped
with a dry lint-free cloth.
Iron
- Starch, fat and other deposits on the sole
plate may be removed with a woollen
cloth soaked in a vinegar/water solution.
- In order to protect the clean sole plate,
occasionally apply a small amount of
paraffin to the warm plate, wiping it off
with a woollen cloth.
To empty any water remaining in the
reservoir
After use, any remaining water must be
removed from the reservoir.
- Remove the water reservoir.
- Lift out the anti-scale filter.
- Pour out any remaining water through
the filler opening.
- Replace the filter.
- Replace the reservoir in the generator.
Anti-scale filter
Depending on the water quality in your area
as well as frequency of use, the anti-scale
filter should be replaced at regular intervals.
Guidelines assuming 2-3 hours of use per
week:
soft water
medium-hard water - after 3 months
hard water
Should you be unsure about the hardness of
the water in your area, please enquire at the
relevant local authority department.
If the anti-scale filter is empty, a new filter
should be installed immediately. Although
you will be able to use the steam generator
even without an anti-scale filter installed,
lime deposits may build up on the heating
element. It is therefore important to arrange
for a replacement as soon as possible.
Replacement filters are available through
the Severin-Service.
- Remove the plug from the wall socket.
- Remove the water reservoir.
- Lift out the anti-scale filter.
- To improve the function of the filter,
briefly immerse it in water before it is
installed.
- Fit the new filter into the reservoir.
- Replace the reservoir in the generator.
- Insert the plug into a suitable wall socket.
