Steam-ironing
• As indicated on the temperature control (A) and the table, steam-
ironing is only possible at higher ironing temperatures:
2 or 3 for moderate steam
3 for maximum steam.
• With conventional steam irons, water may leak from the soleplate if a
too low temperature has been selected. This will then cause stains.
However, your new steam iron features "Drip Stop" steam shut-off:
the iron will automatically stop steaming at too low temperatures.
When this happens, you can hear "Click".
Set the temperature control (A) to the advised position.
Steaming will commence as soon as the appropriate temperature has
been reached.
• Ensure that there is enough water in the water reservoir.
- Stand the iron on its end.
- Set the temperature control (A) at the required position within the
"steam area" (2 to MAX) (fig. 7).
- Insert the mains plug into the wall socket.
- After the amber temperature pilot light (H) first has gone out and has
come on again, you may start ironing.
- Slide the steam control (B) to the required position (fig. 8).
Turbo steam 0 (types HI 525/28/29/35/45 only)
This feature provides extra steam to remove stubborn creases. The extra
steam works as long as the turbo knob is kept pressed-in.
- Press and hold the Turbo steam button 0 (F) for a few seconds (fig. 9).
Then release the button.
• Do not keep the button pressed-in for more than 10 seconds without
interruption.
Allow at least one minute interval before applying Turbo Steam again.
If the amber temperature pilot light (H) comes on, this indicates that the
iron is heating up again.
- Wait for the amber pilot light to go out. Then you can recommence
ironing.
