OptimalTemp Technology

The OptimalTemp technology enables you to iron all types of ironable fabrics, without adjusting the

iron temperature.

- Fabrics with these symbols are ironable, for example linen, cotton, polyester, silk, wool, viscose

and rayon (Fig. 4).

- Fabrics with this symbol are not ironable. These fabrics include synthetic fabrics such as

Spandex or elastane, Spandex-mixed fabrics and polyolens (e.g. polypropylene), but also

prints on garments (Fig. 5).

Recommended water to use: distilled or demineralised water

Your appliance has been designed to be used with tap water. If you live in an area with hard water,

fast scale build-up may occur. It is therefore recommended to use distilled or demineralised water

to prolong the lifetime of your appliance.

Do not use perfumed water, water from the tumble dryer, vinegar, starch, descaling agents,

ironing aids, chemically descaled water or other chemicals, as they may cause water spitting,

brown staining or damage to your appliance.

Ironing

Please read the quick start guide on the packaging carefully to start using your appliance.

Note: Keep the steam trigger pressed continuously when you move the iron over the fabric while you iron.
