Steam settings

You can set different steam settings with the steam slider:

- No steam: to stop steam output when the iron is not in use.

During ironing, always choose ECO or MAX setting.

- ECO: (specic types only) to save energy, reduce the steam output,

and still have sufcient steam to iron your garments.

- MAX: to set the maximum steam output, perfect combination with

OptimalTemp setting.

For the best results and shortest ironing time, we strongly recommend that

you iron all ironable fabrics at the setting for maximum steam output.
