Operating instructions

Water quality
Use only fresh tap water.
Filtered tap water may also be used.
For water hardness of more than 2.5
mmol/l / 14°dH you can use tap water
mixed in 1:1 ratio with distilled water.
This halves the water hardness. Set the
halved water hardness to the
corresponding flash frequency.
Example:
Tap water with 10.8 mmol/l (60°dH) in a
1:1 mixture with distilled water results in
water hardness of 5.4 mmol/l (30°dH).
The corresponding flash frequency of
the k indicator light is 7 times,
according to the table. (see "Setting the
water hardness level").
Do not use demineralised water
(e.g. distilled) on its own to fill the
water container. This can cause the
appliance to malfunction.
Do not use condensate, e.g. from
other appliances such as air
conditioning units, tumble dryers,
etc, or rain water.
Do not use any additives, e.g.
perfumes, ironing water, starch,
carbonated water, etc.
CoolDown function
If the iron is not moved for more than 3
minutes, the heating switches off.
After some time steam is no longer
available and the * indicator light goes
out.
The iron will automatically start heating
up again as soon as the iron is moved.
The time taken for steam to be available
again depends on the length of time the
heating was switched off.
The * indicator light comes on when
the appliance is ready to show that
steam is available.
Do not leave the system unattended
with the iron or steamer connected.
Always switch the appliance off and
disconnect it from the electricity
supply before leaving it.
Auto-Off function
If the iron or steamer is not used for a
total of more than 14 minutes, the whole
appliance switches off automatically.
The system is switched back on again
by pressing the s button.
