Steam Station 4 BAR Refillable Article 320190 / 320191
1 Before using the iron for the first time
verify that the mains voltage stated on
the base of the steam generator is the
same as your mains voltage.
2 Remove all labels and stickers that may
be attached to the iron.
Some parts of the iron are lightly greased,
and it is possible that the iron will emit a
little smoke when used for the first time.
This smoke will stop after a short period of
time, and is not indicative of a defect.
3 To remove residue from the soleplate,
set the temperature control dial to
‘max’, and iron over a damp cloth.
Filling the water reservoir
• It is recommended that you fill the
water reservoir with a mixture of 50%
tap water and 50% distilled water. This
is particularly desirable in areas with
hard water, since this will prevent the
formation of excessive limescale.
• Make sure the water reservoir is
always filled, even if you do not plan
to use the steam function.
1 Make sure the appliance is not plugged
in.
2 Press the water reservoir down and
remove it from the steam generator.
3 Fill the water reservoir with the
indicated quantity of water (no higher
than the ‘max’ level, and above the
‘min’ level).
4 Install the reservoir in the steam
generator and make sure it is
positioned correctly.
Ironing
• Never iron over zips, rivets in jeans,
etc. These will damage the soleplate.
Iron around any such objects.
• The steam generator’s holder for the
iron will become hot. Do not touch it
whilst you are ironing.
• Check whether ironing-instruction
labels are attached to clothing. Always
observe any such instructions.
• Do not touche the soleplate until it has
cooled down completely.
See Figure 1.
Dry ironing
1 Fill the water reservoir (nr.14).
2 Put the iron on the steam generator’s
holder (nr.13).
3 Put the plug in the wall socket and turn
the iron’s temperature-control dial (nr.4)
to adjust the temperature to the
required setting. The iron starts heating.
4 Adjust the temperature in accordance
with the directions given in table 1.
5 When the indicator light on the iron
(nr.5) turns off, the temperature is
reached. You now can start ironing.
Steam ironing
1 Fill the water reservoir.
2 Put the iron on the steam generator’s
holder.
3 Put the plug in the wall socket and turn
the iron’s temperature-control dial to
adjust the temperature to the required
setting. The iron starts heating.
4 Make sure that there is enough water in
the reservoir.
5 Set the steam generator switch (nr.9) to
‘1’.
During first use or reuse after a longer
period, after about 2 minutes, a sound
of escaping air will be heared. This is
normal behaviour.
The steam generator will heat the
water, and the ‘steam on’ light on the
base’s control panel (nr.10) will light.
Once the water has reached the
required temperature the ‘steam ready’
light (nr.11) will be lit.
6 Adjust the temperature by turning the
iron’s temperature-control dial to the
required setting. Adjust the temperature
in accordance with the directions given
in table 1.
