Operation; Filling The Water Tank; Set Iron Temperature - Silvercrest SDBK 2400 E4 Operating Instructions Manual

7. Operation

DANGER!
The sole plate 20 becomes very hot
during operation. During operation
touch only the handle 6 and the control
elements of the steam iron.
Even during short interruptions, always
place the steam iron in the stand 7 and
never on its sole plate 20. There is a
fire hazard!
NOTE:
• You may notice an odour when using
for the first time. This is a result of the
manufacturing process and is not a de-
fect with the device. Ensure adequate
ventilation.
The sole plate 20 cools down slightly during
ironing. In order to reach the set temperature
again, the device heats the sole plate 20 up
again, during which the temperature control
lamp 14 is lit. The temperature control
lamp 14 goes out again when the set tem-
perature is reached. This process repeats it-
self during ironing.
Ironing with cable: simply continue iron-
ing during the heating phase.
If you wish to shorten the power cable some-
what, press it into the cable clamp 22 at the
desired point.
Cable-free ironing: the steam iron stands
on the stand 7.
Wait until the temperature control lamp 14
goes out. For purposes of heating up, regu-
larly place the steam iron on the stand 7.

7.1 Filling the water tank

DANGER!
Pull the mains plug out of the socket be-
fore you fill up the water tank 15.
• Use clean tap water without any addi-
tives (e.g. vinegar, limescale remover,
starch, perfume, softener).
• The integrated anti-limescale protection
reduces limescale deposits for average
water hardness, and thus extends the
service life of the device. If your tap wa-
ter is hard, use distilled water. Where
the water is moderately hard, mix dis-
tilled water and tap water at a ratio of
1:1.
1. Disconnect the mains plug from the wall
socket.
2. Set the steam flow rate controller 3 to
.
3. The switch 11 is in the position
move the steam iron from the stand 7.
4. Open the lid 2 (of the water tank) and
tilt the iron forwards slightly to fill it.
5. Use the measuring beaker 21 to pour in
water up to the mark 19 max, but at
least up to one quarter. Hold the steam
iron upright to check.
6. Close the lid 2 (of the water tank).
7. Place the steam iron on the stand 7 and
set the steam flow rate controller 3 to
the desired position.

7.2 Set iron temperature

NOTE:
• The steam iron must be connected to the
