This user manual contains information about the surprising features of
this iron and some tips to make ironing easier and more enjoyable.
This iron is equipped with a special sensor-controlled handle and
automatic .
While you iron, the sensor in the handle ensures that the iron produces
the optimal amount of steam. As 90% of the energy consumption of an
iron is used to create steam, energy consumption is optimised by
optimising the steam output. When you intuitively put more force on the
handle to remove stubborn creases, the iron automatically produces
more steam.
When you do not press the handle, when you lift the iron and when the
iron is standing on its heel or on its soleplate without any movement, the
automatic energy-saving technology limits the steam output to reduce
energy consumption.
We hope you enjoy using this iron.
Read this user manual carefully before you use the appliance and save it
for future reference.

Check the laundry care label for the required ironing temperature.
If you do not know what kind or kinds of fabric an article is made of,
determine the right ironing temperature by ironing a part that is not
visible when you wear or use the article.
Silk, woolen and synthetic materials: iron the reverse side of the fabric to
prevent shiny patches. To prevent stains, do not use the spray function.
Start ironing the articles that require the lowest ironing temperature,
such as those made of synthetic bers.
1 Put the iron on its heel.
2 To set the required ironing temperature, turn the temperature dial
to the appropriate position (Fig. 5).
See table ‘Temperature and steam settings’.
9
3 Put the mains plug in an earthed wall socket.
,The temperature light goes on (Fig. 6).
4 When the temperature light goes out, wait a while before you
start ironing.
Note: The temperature light goes on from time to time during ironing.
Note: The iron may give off some smoke when you use it for the rst time.
This stops after a short while.
- While you iron, the sensor in the handle ensures that the iron
produces the optimal amount of steam. As 90% of the energy
consumption of an iron is used to create steam, energy consumption
is optimised by optimising the steam output. When you intuitively put

- When you do not press the handle, when you lift the iron and when

movement, the automatic energy-saving technology limits the steam
output to reduce energy consumption (Fig. 7).
1 Make sure that there is enough water in the water tank.
2 Set the recommended ironing temperature (see chapter ‘Preparing
for use’, table ‘Temperature and steam settings’).
3 Set the appropriate steam setting. Make sure that the steam
setting is suitable for the set ironing temperature (see chapter
‘Preparing for use’, table ‘Temperature and steam settings’) (Fig. 8).
Note: The iron is ready for steam ironing as soon as it has reached the
set ironing temperature.
Note: If the set ironing temperature is too low (MIN to 2), water may drip
from the soleplate (see chapter ‘Features’, section ‘Drip stop’).
10
1 Set the steam control to position 0 (= no steam) (Fig. 3).
2 Set the recommended ironing temperature (see chapter ‘Preparing
for use’, table ‘Temperature and steam settings’).
You can use the spray function to remove stubborn creases at any
temperature.
1 Make sure that there is enough water in the water tank.
2 Press the spray button several times to moisten the article to be
ironed (Fig. 9).
A powerful steam boost helps to remove very stubborn creases.
The steam boost function can only be used at temperature settings
between 3 and MAX.
1 Press and release the steam boost button (Fig. 10).
The concentrated steam boost from the long vents in the Steam
Tip enhances the distribution of steam into every part of your garment.
The concentrated steam boost function can only be used at temperature
settings between 3 and MAX.
1 Press and release the steam boost button (Fig. 11).
You can also use the steam boost function when you hold the iron in
vertical position. This is useful for removing creases from hanging clothes,
curtains etc.
11
1 Hold the iron in vertical position and press and release the steam
boost button (Fig. 12).
Never direct the steam at people.
This iron is equipped with a drip-stop function: the iron automatically
stops producing steam when the temperature is too low, to prevent
water from dripping out of the soleplate. When this happens, you may
hear a sound.
The automatic shut-off function automatically switches off the iron if it
has not been moved for a while.
,The red auto-off light ashes to indicate that the iron has been
switched off by the automatic shut-off function (Fig. 13).
To let the iron heat up again:
1 Pick up the iron or move it slightly
,The red auto-off light goes out.
,If the temperature of the soleplate has dropped below the set
ironing temperature, the temperature light goes on.
2 If the temperature light goes on after you have moved the iron,
wait for it to go out before you start ironing.
Note: If the temperature light does not go on after you move the iron, the
soleplate still has the right temperature and the iron is ready for use.
1 Set the steam control to position 0, remove the mains plug from
the wall socket and let the iron cool down.
2 Wipe akes and any other deposits off the soleplate with a damp
cloth and a non-abrasive (liquid) cleaning agent.
12
To keep the soleplate smooth, avoid hard contact with metal objects.
Never use a scouring pad, vinegar or other chemicals to clean the
soleplate.
3 Clean the upper part of the iron with a damp cloth.
4 Regularly rinse the water tank with water. Empty the water tank
after you have rinsed it (Fig. 14).
The Double-Active Calc System consists of an Anti-Calc tablet inside the
water tank combined with the Calc-Clean function.
1 The Anti-Calc tablet prevents scale from clogging the steam vents.
This tablet is constantly active and does not need to be
replaced (Fig. 15).
2 The Calc-Clean function removes the scale particles from the iron.
Use the Calc-Clean function once every two weeks. If the water in your
area is very hard (i.e. when akes come out of the soleplate during
ironing), use the Calc-Clean function more frequently.
1 Set the steam control to position 0 and remove the mains plug
from the wall socket.
2 Fill the water tank to the maximum level.
Do not pour vinegar or other descaling agents in the water tank.
3 Set the temperature dial to MAX.
4 Put the mains plug in an earthed wall socket.
5 Unplug the iron when the temperature light goes out.
6 Hold the iron over the sink. Push the steam control to the CALC
CLEAN position and hold it. Gently shake the iron to and
fro (Fig. 16).
,Steam and boiling water come out of the soleplate. Impurities and
akes (if any) are ushed out.
