4. Operating Instructions

4.1 Temperature Settings

Adjust the temperature dial on the iron according to the fabric type. Refer to the garment care label for recommended ironing temperatures. Start with lower temperatures for delicate fabrics and increase for heavier materials.

4.2 Steam Functions

• Continuous Steam: Press and hold the steam trigger for a continuous steam output of approximately 30 g/min. Release the trigger to stop.
• Shock Steam (Steam Boost): For stubborn creases, press the steam boost button. This delivers a powerful burst of steam, approximately 70 g/5 sec. Use sparingly and allow a few seconds between bursts.
• Vertical Steaming: Hang garments on the adjustable hanger pole. Hold the iron vertically a few centimeters away from the fabric and press the steam trigger to remove wrinkles.

4.3 Innovative Ironing Board Features

• Air Circulation Feature: Activate the air circulation function on the ironing board. This feature gently lifts and relaxes fabric fibers, making ironing easier and preventing shine on delicate materials.
• Hanger Attachment: Utilize the specially designed hanger attachment on the ironing board for convenient ironing of shirts, trousers, and other hanging garments.

5. Maintenance and Cleaning

5.1 After Each Use

1. Turn off the appliance and unplug it from the power outlet.
2. Allow the iron and steam generator to cool down completely.
3. Empty any remaining water from the water tank.

5.2 Cleaning the Soleplate

If the soleplate becomes dirty, clean it with a damp cloth and a non-abrasive liquid cleaner specifically designed for iron soleplates. Do not use abrasive pads or harsh chemicals.

5.3 Descaling

To maintain optimal steam performance, regular descaling of the steam generator is recommended, especially in areas with hard water.
