Ironing
1 Place the steam generator on a stable and even surface.
Note: In order to ensure safe ironing we recommend to always place the base on a
stable ironing board.
2 Make sure that there is enough water in the water tank.
3 Put the mains plug in an earthed wall socket and press the on/o button to switch on
the steam generator. Wait until the 'iron ready' light lights up continuously. This takes
approx. 2 minutes.
4 Remove the water supply hose from the water supply hose storage compartment.
5 Press the carry lock release button to unlock the iron from the iron platform.
6 Press and hold the steam trigger to start ironing.
Warning: Never direct steam at people.
7 For best ironing results, after ironing with steam, perform the last strokes without
steam.
Note: When you use the appliance for the rst time, it may take 30 seconds for steam to
come out of the appliance.
Note: The pump is activated each time you press the steam trigger. It produces subtle
rattling sound, which is normal. When there is no water in the water tank, the pump
sound is louder. Fill up the water tank with water when the water level drops below the
minimum level.
