Miele B 2312 Operating Instructions Manual page 25

^ Turn the cap on the back of the water
container anti-clockwise and remove.
^ Tilt the water container and fill it with
fresh tap water (approx. 15 °C to
35 °C).
This allows it to be filled by taps with
not much room underneath.
It is not possible to overfill the water
container.
The water container can be removed
and refilled at any time, even in the
middle of ironing.
The required water level is determined
by the amount of ironing to be done.
^ Place the cap in the opening and turn
it clockwise as far as it will go.
^ Push the water container back into
the appliance.
The indicator light k will go out after a
short time.
The time it takes for the steam function
to be ready again depends on the how
long it took to refill the water container.
If the water container is filled and
refitted immediately after the indicator
light k lights up, no waiting time is
required. The indicator light * will
indicate that the steam function is ready
to use again.
As long as the indicator light k is
illuminated, the steam system is not
active.
The iron, however, may be used.
Environmental tip: You can save energy
by removing the water container and
ironing without steam. In this case, the
steam generator does not need to be
heated.
If the steam ironing system is not going
to be used for a long time, empty the
water container completely.
