Automatic shut-off

Important: The automatic shut-off ist mercury-

free. The shut-off mechanism causes a slight

rattling noise in the iron during ironing. This

rattling noise is normal and in no case indicates

a fault of the iron.

The yellow pilot light

will flash when the

automatic shut-off is activated within

approximately:

– 30 seconds – if the iron is standing

horizontally on its sole plate and not being

moved.

– 15 minutes – if the iron is left standing upright

on its heel and not being moved.

To turn the iron on again: Move the iron briefly

and the yellow pilot light

stops flashing. This

means that the electrical power is on again. You

can continue ironing as soon as the previously

selected temperature has been reached.

Praktical Guidelines

Type of Water to be Used

This iron is designed for tap water. However,

if you have hard water we recommend to use a

mixture of 1/2 part tap water and 1/2 part distilled

water from drug stores or grocery stores.

Important

: Never use distilled water (battery

water). Do not add any additives (e. g. starch) to

the water.

To ﬁll iron

1. Pull the plug out of the wall outlet.

2. Put the steam regulator

in position «

•

(= steam off).

3. Open sliding shutter

4. Place the iron in the upright position and fill

with water slowly through the tank opening

to the «max.» marking

(a), using the

beaker

5. Close sliding shutter.

Selecting the temperature

Connect the iron to a safely located wall outlet

and select the ironing temperature with the

temperature selector

(b). As soon as the

green pilot light

goes out, the iron has

reached the temperature selected. To avoid

water dripping, always rest the iron upright while

heating it up keep the steam regulator

position «

•

» (= steam off) (c).

You will usually find the following symbols in your

red area

Steam ironing

Temperature selection: Set the temperature

selector

within the red

range steam (b) and wait

until the iron has reached the selected

temperature (i. e. the green pilot light

range. Steam ironing at lower temperatures may

cause water drops instead of steam. Should this

happen, turn the steam regulator

to the

position «

» (= steam off) (c).

Steam regulator

Select the quantity of

steam required (c) for

each garment with the

steam regulator

Constant steam

: Your Braun steam iron is

equipped with a special tank configuration to

provide constant steam even when the water

level in the tank is low.

Jet of steam

(coming from the

outlets

at the slim

pointed tip

Caution: Kee

p children

steam and do not hold

your fingers in front of the

outlets

when activating this function.

When ironing within the red range

area the jet of steam function can

be used (d). To do so, press the button

intervals of no less than 5 seconds. The jet of

steam has been designed not only for steaming

hard to reach areas like pleats, inside of pockets

etc., but also for steaming hanging clothing (e. g.

velvet skirts, curtains etc.) (f). The jet of steam

functions between horizontal and upright

positions. Be careful not to touch sensitive

textiles with the hot sole plate.

Spray / shot of steam

The functions «water

spray» and «shot of

steam» can be activ-

ated with a 2-function

button. The desired

The

marking (blue = water

spray or red = shot of

steam) must point to the

respective function (e).

Turn the button from blue

(spray) to red (shot of

steam) anti-clockwise

and from red to blue clockwise (e).

Shot of steam

(coming from the vents

in the sole plate):

When ironing within the

red area

the shot

of steam function can be

used. It gives an extra,

particularly powerful shot of steam penetrating

deep into the textiles in order to straighten

creases, collars and pleats. The function «shot

of steam» can be used in normal ironing and

also horizontally for steaming hanging clothing

(e. g. velvet skirts, curtains etc.) (f). Press the

shot of steam button

at intervals of no less

than 5 seconds. When steaming be careful not to

touch sensitive textiles with the hot sole plate.

* If pressed too frequently, it can drip.

Should this happen, wait a few seconds

before using it again.

Spray

nozzle

): The spray

function can be used at

any temperature, to

dampen laundry. To do

so, press the button

(water spray = blue).

Storage

After ironing, always pull the plug out of the wall

outlet. Set the temperature selector

to «min.»

(b) and the steam regulator

to «

•

» (= steam

off) (c).

To empty the iron hold it with the open water tank

opening

downwards (g) and shake it 1 or 2

times. The swivel cord

conveniently winds up

around the cord storage

IMPORTANT

: Store the cool steam iron in a dry

place and always standing on its heel rest

The sole plate may be damaged by remaining

water if it is stored horizontally. The warranty

does not cover faults or damage resulting from

improper storage of the iron.

Maintenance and Cleaning

To remove residues of minerals/starch from the

sole plate always use steel wool. Never use a

scouring pad, vinegar or other chemicals. The

steam vents

and jet of steam outlets

may

be cleaned manually with a toothpick, if

necessary. Clean the sole plate regularly if you

use starch or other aids on the clothes for

ironing.

Decalcifying / Self-cleaning

Braun automatic shut-off irons have a built-in

system (anti-calc. valve) to prevent calcification.

It allows you to clean residues from the steam

chamber. Do not use commercial decalcifiers;

they may damage the sole plate.

We recommend to use the self-cleaning function

every 3 months.
