Important safeguards

•

Before using the iron, read the use instruc-

tions completely. Keep the use instructions

during the entire life of the iron.

•

Make sure your voltage corresponds to the

voltage printed on the iron. Connect the

iron to alternating current only.

•

Always unplug the iron before filling with

water and make sure the steam button is

in its lower position (steam off). Always pull

the plug, not the cord. The cord should

never come in contact with hot objects or

with the hot sole plate.

•

Never immerse the iron in water or other

liquids.

•

During ironing pauses, always place the

iron upright on its heel rest. Unplug it when

leaving the room, even if only for a short

time.

•

Never pull out the steam button (3) during

ironing.

•

Keep the iron away from children.

Electric irons combine high temperatures

and hot steam that could lead to burns.

•

Check the cord regularly for possible

damage.

•

If the appliance (including cord) shows any

defect, stop using it and take it to a Braun

Service Centre for repair.

•

Faulty or unqualified repair work may

cause accidents or injury to the user.

B Before starting off

•

This iron is designed for tap water. If you

have extremely hard water, we recommend

to use a mixture of 50% tap water and

50% distilled water. Fill the water tank to

«max» marking. Never use distilled water

exclusively. Do not add any additives

(e.g. starch).

•

Keep the iron in the upright position and

connect it to the mains. Select the tem-

perature according to the ironing guide on

the heel rest of the iron or on the label in

your garments.

•

The temperature pilot light (7) goes off,

when the desired temperature is reached

(after approx. 1 minute).

C Ironing

1 Steam on/off

For steam ironing, the temperature selector

(6) must be set within the red range.

Press the steam button (3) to start the

steam mode.

steam on steam off

With the steam button in its upper position,

turn

the steam regulator (3a) to adjust the

steam quantity.

Preconditioning

(not with models SI 6210, SI 6510)

Steam develops also horizontally at the

front area of the sole plate. This pre-

conditions the textiles by «pre-steaming»,

thus making ironing easier.

Be careful – steam comes out laterally.

2 Power shot

Prior to use, press the power shot button

(5) 3 to 4 times to activate it. Press the

power shot button in intervals of at least

5 seconds.

Power shot can be activated when dry

ironing. However, the temperature selector

has to be set in the range between «•••»

and «max». The power shot function can

also be used in the vertical position for

steaming hanging clothes.

3 Spray function

Press the spray button (4).

4 Dry ironing

Turn the steam mode off by pressing the

steam button (3) so that it catches in the

lower position.

D After ironing

•

Unplug the iron and press the steam on/off

button (3) so that it catches in its lower

position (steam off).

•

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 clean the sole plate, use steel wool.

Then wipe the sole plate clean with a cloth.

Never use a scouring pad, vinegar nor

other chemicals. To clean the soft material

of handle and power shot and spray

buttons, use soapy water.

F Cleaning the anticalc valve

The iron’s anticalc valve is located at the

lower end of the steam button (3). It has

to be decalcified regularly (e.g. when the

steam development is insufficient).

Proceed as follows:

1) Unplug the iron and empty the water tank.

2) Press the steam button so it is lifted.

3) Remove carefully (some water may now

leak from the sole plate).

4) Do not touch the anit-calc valve.

5) Immerse in vinegar (not vinegar essence)

or lemon juice until the lime becomes soft.

6) Use a non-metallic brush until all openings

are clean.

7) Rinse under running water.

8) Re-insert the steam button.

9) Press to check the steam on/off function.

Note:

the iron must never be used without

the steam button.

G Decalcifying/ anticalc system

When scale particles come out of the

steam vents or when the steam

development is insufficient even after

cleaning the anticalc valve, you should

clean the steam chamber as follows:

1) Make sure the steam button is in its lower

position.

2)–3) Fill water into the tank, connect to the

mains and select the «•••» temperature

setting.

4)–5) Wait until the pilot light turns off.

Unplug the iron.

6)–7) Hold the iron over a sink, then press the

steam button so it is lifted, carefully pull it

up, turn it and rest it in this position.

Caution:

When the steam button is pulled

up, hot water and steam will come out from

the sole plate.

8) Push back the steam button until it catches

in the lower position.

9)–10) Fill water into the tank, connect to the

mains and select the «•••» temperature

setting.

11)–13) When the pilot light goes off, press

the power shot button 4 times to rinse the

iron. Disconnect the iron and wait for the

sole plate to cool off, then clean it as

described above in section E.

Note:

the iron must never be used without

the steam button.
