Shot of Steam 9
By pressing button 9 (E) a powerful "shot" of steam is emitted from the
soleplate (fig. 10).
This can be very useful e.g. when removing stubborn creases.
The "shot" of steam facility can be used only while ironing with high
ironing temperature (positions ranging from 2 to MAX).
Vertical position
“Shot of steam” 9 can also be applied when holding the iron in a vertical
position (fig. 11).
This is useful for removing creases from hanging clothes, curtains, etc.
Ironing without steam
For ironing without steam proceed as described for steam-ironing.
However, the steam control (B) should remain in position O (= no steam).
“Auto stop” (automatic safety shut-off)
(type HI 545 only)
If the iron is left motionless for more than 30 seconds, the power element
will switch off automatically.
To indicate that the iron has shut off, the red “Auto Stop” pilot light (O) will
start blinking and a sound signal will be audible (fig. 12).
In a horizontal position, this will happen after 30 seconds.
In a vertical position, this will happen after 8 minutes.
- When picking up the iron again, the red “Auto Stop” pilot light (O) will
go out.
The amber temperature pilot light (H) will come on. This indicates that
the iron is heating up again.
- Wait for the amber pilot light to go out. Then you can recommence
ironing.
