3 to 4 times to activate it.
Press the steam shot button in intervals of at
least 5 seconds.
Steam shot can be activated when dry ironing.
The temperature selector has to be set

4 Dry ironing
Set the steam regulator (3) on position «0»
(= steam off).
D After ironing
Unplug the iron and turn the steam regulator to
position «0». To prolong the life of the iron,
empty the water tank. Store the cool iron in a
dry place always standing on its heel rest.
E Maintenance and cleaning
To prevent damaging the sole plate, do not iron
over metal buttons or zippers. Clean the sole
plate regularly with a damp cloth. To remove
mineral/starch residues, use a vinegar/water
mixture in the ratio of 1 : 2. Never use steel wool,
abrasive scouring pads, powders or other
chemicals to clean the sole plate.
F Cleaning the anticalc valve
The anticalc valve located on the lower end of the
steam regulator (3) has to be decalcified regularly
(e.g. whenever steam development is insufficient).
For this, the water tank has to be empty.
Removing the steam regulator with the anticalc
valve:
Turn the steam regulator clockwise towards
Keep on turning firmly beyond the resistance until
the steam regulator is lifted. When positioned at
«•» (anticalc system), pull it out vertically. Do not
touch the anticalc valve at its lower end. Immerse
the anticalc valve in vinegar (not vinegar essence)
or lemon juice for a minimum of 30 minutes.
Brush off remaining residues and rinse under
running water (fig. F 1–5).
Re-inserting the steam regulator:
When re-inserting the steam regulator, make
sure the steam regulator base still points on
setting «•» (anticalc system) (fig. F 6). When
firmly pushing down the steam regulator, it turns
back to (fig. F 7) where it catches.
Notice: The iron must never be used without
steam regulator.
G Decalcifying / anticalc system
In order to clean the steam chamber from
residues, decalcify it as shown in picture section
G 1–11.
Caution: Hot water and steam will come out
from the sole plate when the steam regulator is
turned clockwise beyond
Wait for the sole plate to cool down, then clean
it as described above.
Then refill the tank with water, heat up the iron
and press the steam shot button four times to
rinse the iron before ironing (fig. G 12–14).
Do not use commercial decalcifiers, they may
damage the iron.
