We hope you enjoy your new Braun Steam Station.

• Read the use instructions completely and keep them
during the entire lifetime of the iron.
• Make sure your voltage corresponds to the voltage
printed on the bottom of the steam boiler. Connect the
steam station to alternating current only.
• Place the boiler on a stable, level surface.
• Always unplug the appliance before filling it with water.
• Before refilling during use, always allow the steam.
boiler to cool down for a miminum of 2- 3 minutes.
• The cord and the steam hose should never come in
contact with hot objects or with the hot sole plate.
• Make sure the lock button for permanent steam (1) is
not activated and the safety cap of steam boiler is
closed before the appliance is plugged in.
• Never immerse the appliance in water or other liquids.
• During ironing pauses, always place the iron on top of
the iron stand on the steam boiler or upright on its heel
rest. Unplug the appliance when leaving the room,
even if only for a short time.
• Keep the appliance away from children. High tem-
peratures and hot steam could lead to burns.
• Caution: Safety cap, steam supply hose, steam boiler
and especially the iron stand are get hot during use.
• Steam ironing can cause condense water which may
drop from the back of the iron board onto the floor.
• Check cord and hose regularly for possible damage.
• If the appliance (including cord) shows any defect,
stop using it and take it to a Braun Service Centre for
repair.
• Faulty or unqualified repair work may cause accidents
or injury to the user.
• Before leaving our factory all our products are rigor-

Before starting off
• Make sure that the on/off switch (8) has been turned
off and the system is unplugged.
• Open the safety cap (5,a) of the steam boiler (10).
• If cold, there could be a vacuum in the boiler, which
may cause a sound when you remove the cap. This is
absolutely normal.
• Fill in about 1 litre of ordinary tap water (a). A funnel
is included to make this operation easier. If you have
extremely hard water we recommend to use a mixture
of 50% tap water and 50% distilled water. Never use
distilled water exclusively. Do not add any vinegar,
additives, descaling agents or other chemicals.
• Close the safety cap of the steam boiler carefully.
• Place the boiler on a stable, level surface (like a table
or the floor).
• Place the iron on the iron stand (4,b), plug in the appli-
ance (c) and press the on/off switch (8).
• Important: Make sure that the lock button for perma-
nent steam (1) is not activated. Set the temperature
selector (3,d) according to the ironing guide on the
heel rest of the iron or the label in your garments.
• The temperature control light (11,e) goes off when the
desired temperature is reached.
Steam-ironing
• Steam-ironing is possible at ironing temperatures
indicated with the red area on the temperature selector
(d, from max to slightly lower than the two dots). Press
the switch for steam function (7).
• The pilot light in the switch for steam function (7) goes
off when steam is ready after approx. 8 minutes.
During use the pilot light will go on and off indicating
that the appliance is working to maintain the required
steam pressure.
• Press the steam control button (2,f) as often as
needed.
• Adjust the steam flow to your desired level with the
steam regulator (9,d)
• For permanent steam function press the lock button
(1) and slide backwards until it locks (g). To switch off
the permanent steam, slide the lock button forward.
• When starting the ironing session or when you have
not used the steam function for some time, the steam
still present in the supply hose will condense into
water. This may cause some spluttering in the appli-
ance and a few drops of water may come out from the
sole plate. Before starting ironing just hold the iron
over a cloth and press the steam control button until
the steam production has normalised.
Dry ironing
To work without steam you do not have to activate the
on/off switch for the steam function (7).
