ENGLISH
• 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 on 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.
Disposal
Our goods come in optimised packaging. This
basically consists in using non-contaminating
materials which should be handed over to the
local waste disposal service as secondary raw
materials. Your local town council can give you
information about how to dispose of obsolete
appliances.
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.

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.
Check the recommended ironing temperature
in the label on the garment.
• Regulate the steam according to the selected
ironing temperature, following the instructions
in this manual.
• Only use steam if necessary. If possible, use
the spray function instead.
