BEFORE USE
Remove the transparent soleplate protector
Electronic 3-stage automatic switch-off (depending on model)
If the iron is switched on and not moved for a period of 8 minutes while standing
on its heel or 30 seconds while standing on the soleplate or Iying on its side,
an internal safety feature will switch the iron off and the automatic switch-off
indicator will blink. Move the appliance sharply to switch it on again.

set the temperature control to max., do not add any water, stand the iron on
its heel and allow it to heat up in the vertical position for 2 minutes. A small
amount of smoke may be generated. This is perfectly normal and will disap-
pear after a short period of use.

(Position “min“).
