Vertical ironing
Hot steam is emitted from the iron. Never attempt to remove creases
from a garment that someone is wearing. Do not apply steam near your or
someone else's hand.
You can use the iron in vertical position to remove wrinkles from hanging
fabrics.
1
Hold the iron in vertical position, press the steam trigger and touch the
garment slightly with the soleplate (Fig. 17).
Note: For your safety, the intelligent automatic steam mode is not
available for vertical ironing.
MAX setting
For higher amount of steam, you can use the MAX setting.
1
Press and hold the on/off button for 2 seconds until the MAX light turns
white (Fig. 18).
Note: In Max setting, your appliance will always give the maximum steam
amount, while the temperature will still adjust automatically.
2 The appliance returns to normal steam mode automatically after 15
minutes to save energy.
3
To directly switch off the MAX setting at any time, press and hold the on/
off button for 2 seconds until the MAX light goes off.
Auto shut-off
-
To save energy, the appliance enters the standby mode if it has not
been used for 4-5 minutes. The light in the on/ off button starts to flash
(Fig. 19).
- To activate the appliance again, press the on/off button or the steam
trigger. The appliance starts to heat up again.
- The appliance switches off automatically if it has not been used for
another 10 minutes after it enters the standby mode. The light in the on/
off button goes off.
IMPORTANT - EASY DE-CALC
It is very important to use the EASY DE-CALC function as soon as the
EASY DE-CALC light starts to flash (Fig. 20) and the appliance beeps
continuously.
The EASY DE-CALC light flashes and the appliance beeps continuously
after about a month or 10 ironing sessions to indicate that the appliance
needs to be descaled. Perform the following EASY DE-CALC procedure
before you continue ironing.
1 Remove the plug from the wall socket.
2
Place the appliance on the edge of the tabletop.
