Praktical Guidelines

Type of Water to be Used

This iron is designed for tap water. However, if

you have hard water we recommend to use:

– filtered water (household water filters that also

de-mineralize water are commercially

available) or

– a mixture of 1/2 part tap water and 1/2 part

distilled water from drug stores or grocery

stores.

portant: Never use distilled water (battery

water). Do not add any additives (e. g. starch) to

the water.

To fill iron

1. Pull the plug out of the wall outlet.

2. Put the steam regulator

in position «

•

(= steam off).

3. Open sliding shutter

4. Place the iron in the upright position and fill

with water slowly through the tank opening

to the «max.» marking

(a), using the

beaker

5. Close sliding shutter.

Selecting the temperature

Connect the iron to a safely located wall outlet

and select the ironing temperature with the

temperature selector

light

goes out, the iron has reached the

temperature selected. To avoid water dripping,

always rest the iron upright while heating it up

Constant steam

: Your Braun steam iron is

equipped with a special tank configuration to

provide constant steam even when the water

level in the tank is low.

plate): For stubborn

creases and wrinkles,

collars and cuffs.

seconds at intervals of no less than 7 seconds.

Jet of steam*

When ironing within the red range

can be used (e). To do so, press the button

intervals of no less than 5 seconds. The jet of

steam has been designed not only for steaming

hard to reach areas like pleats, inside of pockets

etc., but also for steaming hanging clothing (e. g.

velvet skirts, curtains, etc.) (g). The jet of steam

functions between horizontal and upright

positions. Be careful not to touch sensitive

textiles with the hot sole plate.

Shot of steam

* (coming

from the vents in the sole

plate): When ironing

within the red

area the shot of

steam function can be

used. It gives an extra,

particular-ly powerful shot

order to straighten creases, collars and pleats.

The function «shot of steam» can be used in

normal ironing and also vertically for steaming

hanging clothing (e. g. velvet skirts, curtains etc.)

(g). Press the shot of steam button

happen, wait a few seconds before using it

again.

any temperature, to

dampen laundry. To do

so, press the button

The desired function can

be selected by turning the

as far as it will

go. The marking (blue =

of steam) must point to

the respective function (f).

Turn the button from blue

(spray) to red (shot of

steam) anti-clockwise

and from red to blue clockwise (f).

Storage

outlet. Set the temperature selector

(b) and the steam regulator

to «

•

» (= steam

off) (c).

To empty the iron hold it with the open water tank

opening

downwards (h) and shake it 1 or 2

times. The swivel cord

conveniently winds up

around the cord storage

IMPORTANT

: Store the cool steam iron in a dry

place and always standing on its heel rest

The sole plate may be damaged by remaining

water if it is stored horizontally. The warranty

does not cover faults or damage resulting from

improper storage of the iron.

Maintenance and Cleaning

To remove residues of minerals/starch from the

sole plate always use steel wool. Never use a

scouring pad, vinegar or other chemicals. The

steam vents

and jet of steam outlets

may

be cleaned manually with a toothpick, if

necessary. Clean the sole plate regularly if you

use starch or other aids on the clothes for

ironing.

Decalcifying / Self-cleaning

Braun irons Saphir-jet have a built-in system

(anti-calc. valve) to prevent calcification. It allows

you to clean residues from the steam chamber.

Do not use commercial decalcifiers; they may

damage the sole plate. We recommend to use

the self-cleaning function every 3 months.
