Fabrics with this symbol are not ironable. These fabrics include
synthetic fabrics such as Spandex or elastane, Spandex-mixed
fabrics and polyolefins (e.g. polypropylene), but also prints on
garments.
During ironing, you can place the iron either on the iron platform
or horizontally on the ironing board. Thanks to the OptimalTEMP
technology, the soleplate will not damage the ironing board cover.
Ironing
1 Place the steam generator on a stable and even surface.
2 Make sure that there is enough water in the water tank
(see section 'Filling the water tank').
3 Put the mains plug in an earthed wall socket and press the
on/off button to switch on the steam generator. The blue
power-on light on the appliance and the 'iron ready' light
start to flash to indicate that the appliance is heating up
(this takes approx. 2 minutes).
When the appliance is ready for use, the 'iron ready
,
light' and the power-on light stop flashing and light up
continuously. Additionally you hear a short beep.
4 Press the carry lock release button to unlock the iron from
the iron platform.
5 Press and hold the steam trigger to start ironing.
Never direct steam at people.
Note: For best result on tough fabrics such as cotton, linen and
jeans, keep the steam trigger pressed continuously when you
move the iron over the fabric. Then move the iron over the
same area a few more times without steam to dry the fabric.
