2. Belangrijke veiligheidsinstructies

Volg altijd de basisveiligheidsmaatregelen bij het gebruik van elektrische apparaten om het risico op brand, elektrische schokken of letsel te beperken.

• Lees alle instructies voordat u het strijkijzer gebruikt.
• Gebruik het strijkijzer uitsluitend voor het beoogde huishoudelijke gebruik.
• Dompel het strijkijzer niet onder in water of andere vloeistoffen om het risico op elektrische schokken te voorkomen.
• Always turn the iron OFF before plugging or unplugging from the outlet. Never yank cord to disconnect from outlet; instead, grasp plug and pull to disconnect.
• Laat het snoer niet in aanraking komen met hete oppervlakken. Laat het strijkijzer volledig afkoelen voordat u het opbergt. Wikkel het snoer losjes om het strijkijzer bij het opbergen.
• The iron has a 3-way Auto Shut-Off feature: it turns off after 8 minutes if left vertically, and after 30 seconds if tipped over or left horizontally.
• Do not operate iron with a damaged cord or if the iron has been dropped or damaged. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the iron. Contact qualified service personnel for examination and repair. Incorrect reassembly can cause a risk of electric shock when the iron is used.
• Nauwlettend toezicht is noodzakelijk voor elk apparaat dat door of in de buurt van kinderen wordt gebruikt. Laat het strijkijzer niet onbeheerd achter terwijl het is aangesloten of op een strijkplank staat.
• Er kunnen brandwonden ontstaan ​​door het aanraken van hete metalen onderdelen, heet water of stoom. Wees voorzichtig wanneer u een stoomstrijkijzer ondersteboven houdt - er kan heet water in het reservoir zitten.

4. Instellen

4.1 Het waterreservoir vullen

1. Zorg ervoor dat de stekker van het strijkijzer uit het stopcontact is gehaald.
2. Zet de stoomregelaar in de stand 'Droog strijken' (geen stoom).
3. Open the water tank inlet cover located at the front of the iron.
4. Hold the iron in a slightly tilted position and slowly pour tap water into the opening until it reaches the 'MAX' fill line. The water tank has an 8.45 oz capacity.
5. Sluit het deksel van de watertank goed af.

Note: Tap water is generally suitable for this iron. For areas with very hard water, a mixture of 50% tap water and 50% distilled water is recommended. Do not use 100% distilled water as it can cause the iron to spit.

5. Gebruiksaanwijzing

5.1 Temperature and Steam Settings

1. Plug the iron into a suitable electrical outlet. The indicator light will illuminate.
2. Turn the temperature dial to the desired setting based on your fabric type. Settings include:
   • Synthetische stoffen
   • Zijde
   • Wol
   • Katoen
   • Linnen
3. Laat het strijkijzer opwarmen. Het indicatielampje gaat uit zodra de ingestelde temperatuur is bereikt.
4. For steam ironing, ensure the water tank is filled. Adjust the variable steam control to the desired steam output.
5. For a powerful burst of steam, press the 'Burst of Steam' button. This is useful for stubborn wrinkles or vertical steaming.
6. For vertical steaming, hold the iron upright a few inches from the garment and press the 'Burst of Steam' button.

5.2 Strijktechnieken

Always check the garment's care label for specific ironing instructions. Iron delicate fabrics first, as they require lower temperatures. For best results, iron garments while they are slightly damp.

6. Onderhoud

6.1 Zelfreiniging

The self-cleaning system flushes out loose mineral deposits from the steam chamber, ensuring optimal performance and extending the life of your iron. Perform this function monthly or more frequently if you use steam often or live in a hard water area.

1. Vul het waterreservoir tot aan de 'MAX'-lijn.
2. Set the temperature dial to 'MAX' and the steam control to 'Dry Ironing'.
3. Plug in the iron and allow it to heat up until the indicator light turns off.
4. Haal de stekker van het strijkijzer uit het stopcontact en houd het horizontaal boven de gootsteen.
5. Press and hold the 'Self Clean' button. Hot water and steam will flush out from the soleplate. Gently shake the iron back and forth.
6. Release the 'Self Clean' button when the water tank is empty.
7. Reheat the iron to dry the soleplate, then unplug and store.

6.2 Integrated Anti-Calc System

The integrated anti-calc system helps to reduce scale buildup inside the iron, ensuring consistent steam performance. This system is permanent and does not require maintenance.

6.3 Opslag

Always allow the iron to cool completely before storing. Empty the water tank after each use to prevent mineral buildup. Store the iron upright on its heel rest to protect the soleplate.

7. Probleemoplossing

• Het strijkijzer wordt niet warm: Check if the iron is properly plugged in. Ensure the temperature dial is set to a fabric setting and not 'OFF'. If the auto shut-off has activated, gently move the iron to reactivate it.
• Geen stoom of onvoldoende stoom: Check if the water tank is filled. Ensure the temperature setting is high enough for steam production (usually Cotton or Linen settings). Adjust the variable steam control to a higher setting.
• Water dripping from soleplate: Ensure the iron has reached the selected temperature before using steam. The anti-drip system prevents dripping, but if the iron is not hot enough, water may escape. Also, ensure the water tank is not overfilled.
• White flakes coming from soleplate: This indicates mineral buildup. Perform the self-cleaning procedure as described in the Maintenance section.
