Important
This appliance has been designed exclusively for
domestic use and must not be used for industrial
purposes.
Carefully read through the operating instructions for the
appliance and safeguard them for future reference.
General safety instructions
The iron must not be left unattended while it is
connected to the supply mains.
Remove the plug from the socket before filling the
appliance with water or before pouring out the
remaining water after use.
The appliance must be used and placed on a stable
surface.
When placed on its stand, make sure that the surface
on which the stand is placed is stable.
The iron should not be used if it has been dropped,
if there are visible signs of damage or if it is leaking
water. It must be checked by an authorized Technical
Service Centre before it can be used again.
With the aim of avoiding dangerous situations, any
work or repair that the appliance may need, e.g.
replacing a faulty mains cable, must only be carried
out by qualified personnel from an Authorised
Technical Service Centre.
This appliance can be used by children aged from 8
years and above and persons with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience
and knowledge if they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe
way and understand the hazards involved. Children
shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user
maintenance shall not be made by children without
supervision.
You can download this manual from the local homepages of Siemens
Keep the iron and its cord out of reach of children less
than 8 years of age when it is energized or cooling
down.
CAUTION. Hot surface.
Surface is liable to get hot during use.
This appliance is to be connected and used in accordance with
the information stated on its characteristics plate.
This appliance must be connected to an earthed socket. If it is
absolutely necessary to use an extension cable, make sure that
it is suitable for 16A and has a socket with an earth connection.
If the safety fuse fitted in the appliance blows, the appliance
will be rendered inoperative. To restore normal operation the
appliance will have to be taken to an authorised Technical
Service Centre.
In order to avoid that, under unfavourable mains conditions,
phenomena like transient voltage drops or lighting fluctuations
can happen, it is recommended that the iron is connected to a
power supply system with a maximum impedance of 0.27Ω . If
necessary, the user can ask the public power supply company
for the system impedance at the interface point.
Unplug the appliance from the mains supply after each use, or
if a fault is suspected.
The electrical plug must not be removed from the socket by
pulling the cable.
Never immerse the iron in water or any other fluid.
Do not leave the appliance exposed to weather conditions (rain,
sun, frost, etc.).
Tips to help you save energy
Steam production consumes the most energy. To help minimise
the energy used, follow the advice below:
Start by ironing the fabrics that require the lowest ironing
temperature.
Regulate the steam according to the selected ironing
temperature.
Only use steam if necessary. If possible, use the spray function
instead.
Try to Iron the fabrics while they are still damp and reduce the
steam setting. Steam will be generated from the fabrics rather
than the iron. If you tumble dry your fabrics before ironing them,
set the tumble drier to the ‘iron dry’ programme.
If the fabrics are damp enough, turn off the steam regulator
completely.
Stand the iron upright during pauses. Resting it horizontally
with the steam regulator on generates wasted steam.
Environmental Care
This iron has been designed according to ecological criteria,
related to the sustainable development, analyzing its whole
lifecycle - from material selection to its later reusing or recycling
- evaluating the improvement possibilities, from a technical,
economical and environmental point of view.
Before throwing a used appliance away, you should make it
noticeably inoperable e.g. cut off the mains lead and be certain
to dispose of it in accordance with current laws and regulations.
Your retailer, town council or local council can give you detailed
information about these.
This appliance is labelled in accordance with
European Directive 2012/19/EU concerning
used electrical and electronic appliances
(waste electrical and electronic equipment -
WEEE).
The guideline determines the framework for
the return and recycling of used appliances as applicable
throughout the EU.
Before using the Iron for the first time
Please carry out the following steps:
1. Remove the protective cover from the soleplate before using
the iron.
2. While the iron is unplugged, fill the water tank (E) with tap water
3. Plug the appliance into the mains and set the temperature
control (I) to the “max” position by lining it up with the pointer
(H) on the iron.
4. When the iron has reached the correct temperature, the pilot
lamp (K) goes out. Set the steam regulator (C) to the maximum
position.
5. Hold the iron horizontally and repeatedly press the shot of steam
button (A). Any residue should come out of the soleplate (F).
It may smoke and smell – this is normal and will cease after a
short while.
6. If necessary, carefully clean the soleplate down with a dry,
folded cloth.
