Shot-of-Steam
9 (only type HI 322, 332 and 342) (see table)
• By pressing the Shot-of-Steam button 9 (F), a powerful “shot” of
steam is emitted from the soleplate. This can be very useful e.g.
when removing stubborn creases.
• The shot-of-steam facility can be used only at temperature settings
higher than 2.
- Press and release the shot-of-steam button 9 (F) (fig. 9).
Beware of the hot and powerful steam!
- Allow the appliance to heat up for approx. 1 minute after you have
applied 5 consecutive “shots” of steam. This prevents water dripping
from the soleplate.
Vertical Shot-of-steam 9 (only type HI 332 and 342)
(see table)
• Shot-of-steam can also be applied when holding the iron in a vertical
position (fig. 10). This is useful for removing creases from hanging
clothes, curtains etc.
• The vertical Shot-of-steam facility can only be used at temperature
settings 3 to MAX.
“Auto off” (automatic safety shut-off) (type HI 342)
• The iron has an electronic safety device which switches off the heating
element automatically if the iron is left motionless for a while. When the
iron is first connected to the mains, this will happen after 2 minutes.
- To indicate that the iron has shut off, the red “Auto off” pilot light (O) will
blink after 30 seconds in a horizontal position or 8 minutes in a vertical
position (fig.11).
- Pick up the iron or move it lightly to heat it up again. The red “Auto off”
pilot light (O) will go off. The amber temperature pilot light (I) will come
on. When the amber pilot light is off, the iron is ready for use.
- To prevent water dripping from the soleplate in horizontal resting
position, set the steam control dial to position O or stand the iron on its
end if the appliance is left unattended for a while.
