temperature can usually be found on the
garment's characterisation label.
∙ The meaning of the symbols is as follows:
• synthetics
(low temperature)
•• silk and wool
(medium temperature)
••• cotton and linen
(high temperature)
∙ These markings can also be found on the
temperature control knob in the form of
dot symbols.
∙ When ironing highly sensitive fabrics, or
if you are not sure about the fabrics, you
may carefully test-iron at a non-visible
point, eg inside of seam.
∙ If the laundry is being dried in a dryer
before ironing, the temperature should be
adjusted to "iron dry". Very dry fabrics are
diffi cult to iron.
∙ For storage, and also when ironing is
interrupted, the iron must be placed
upright on its base stand.
Ironing
Place the iron upright on its base stand,
insert the plug into the wall socket and set
the infi nitely adjustable temperature control
knob to the required temperature. (Refer to
temperature information on the label).
During the heating-up process the indicator
lamp will be on. The lamp will go out once
the required ironing temperature is reached.
The iron is now ready to use.
General Care and Cleaning
∙ Before cleaning the iron, ensure it is
disconnected from the power supply and
has cooled down completely.
∙ If necessary, the unit may be wiped with a
dry lint-free cloth.

∙ To avoid the risk of electric shock, do
not clean the iron with water and do not
immerse it in water.
∙ In order to protect the clean soleplate, you
may occasionally apply a small amount
of paraffi n to the warm plate, wiping it off
with a woollen cloth.
∙ Starch, fat and other deposits on the
soleplate may be removed with a woollen
cloth soaked in a vinegar-water solution.
∙ Do not use abrasives or harsh cleaning
solutions.
