• This degree of protection is not indicated on the product and on the
technical parameters in the operating instructions.
• If the protection class of the product is different from IPX0, this is then
displayed on the device label, if applicable
in the technical parameters of the operating instructions.
• Other characteristics of the domestic operating environment
(mechanical stress - vibrations, occurrence of plant, animals, weather
effects ...) are negligible in terms of effect on the correct and safe use of
electrical equipment.
1.3 Electrical safety
• Before connecting the appliance to the power supply for the fi rst time,
make sure that the voltage on the appliance label corresponds to that of
the household electrical outlet.
• The electric appliance is designed to power from 1 / N / PE ~ 230V 50 Hz.
• The electrical safety of the appliance is guaranteed only if it is properly
connected to the mains.
• Electrical protection class I is equipped with a protection against
electric shock by means of protective earthing of inanimate parts,
which can become dangerous when the device is malfunctioning.
Always connect such devices to properly installed mains sockets that
are equipped with earthing conductors and have a properly grounded
earthing conductor.
All electrical equipment is equipped with a three-wire power supply.
• Class II electrical equipment is protected against electric shock by
double insulation or by enhanced insulation of hazardous live electrical
parts. Protection class device II must not be equipped with means for
connecting a protective earthing.
All electrical equipment is equipped with two-wire power supply.
• Class III electrical equipment is a device that is powered by a low
voltage (battery or accumulator) source, and does not pose any danger
to the user from electrical shock.

5EN
• To ensure increased security against the risk of electrical shock when
using electrical appliances by laypersons, it is recommended to install
them in the electrical supply circuit for sockets with a rated current not
exceeding 20 A current protector (RCD) with a rated trip current not
exceeding 30 mA.
To ensure the safety and correctness of the electrical installation,
consult a qualifi ed electrician.
• Only use a power cord with a plug (mains lead) supplied with the
device and compatible with a wall outlet. Using another cable may
result in fi re or electric shock.
• Always connect an electrical appliance to an easily accessible mains
socket. In the event of an operating fault, the appliance must be
switched off as soon as possible and disconnected from mains supply.
• The power cord and mains plug must always be easily accessible for
safe disconnection of the electrical appliance from the power supply.
• Do not pull the power cord by pulling on the cord . Disconnect the
power cord by pulling the plug behind the power cord / power cord plug.
• If you use an extension cord, make sure that the total rated power of
all devices connected to the extension cord does not exceed the max.
current load of the extension cable.
• If you need to use an extension cord or power supply block, make sure
that the extension cord or power pack is plugged into a power outlet,
and not to another extension cord or power supply. The extension
power cord or power supply block must be designed for grounded
electrical plugs and connected to a properly grounded electrical outlet.
• The power plug of the appliance must be compatible with the mains
socket. Never use any adapters or modify the socket in any other way.
Do not use inappropriate or damaged sockets!
• To avoid electrical shock, plug the power cables into properly grounded
electrical outlets. If the device is equipped with a 3-pole plug, do not
use adapters that do not have a grounding element or remove the
grounding element from the plug or adapter.
• Do not bend, crush or otherwise expose the power cord / power cord of
the appliance to mechanical stress or external heat sources. Damage
to the power cord may result in electric shock.
• When the power cord is damaged, disconnect the appliance from the
mains and do not use it again.
• If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer,
its service department or a similarly qualifi ed person to avoid the risk of
electric shock.
• Regularly check and maintain the electrical appliance as well as the
power cord and power outlet. Disconnect the power plug regularly and
clean it if necessary. Pollution by dust or other substances may cause
disruption of the insulating state and consequently fi re.

6EN
• Do not expose the appliance to water or moisture. The ingress of water
into the appliance increases the risk of electric shock. If the power cord
is wet or the water has penetrated the device, disconnect it immediately
from the mains. If the appliance is plugged into a mains socket and if
possible, turn off the power supply before attempting to disconnect the
power supply. If you are pulling wet wires from a live power source, be
very careful.
• If the electrical equipment is installed (connecting) the protective covers
are dismantled, the electrical parts must not be accessible to the user
when the installation is fi nished.
1.4 Safety of persons
• This appliance is intended for use and operation by persons without
electrotechnical qualifi cation - lay people, according to the instructions
specifi ed by the manufacturer.
• Device operation includes activities such as switching on and off, user
manipulation and setting of operating parameters, visual or auditory
inspection of the equipment, and user cleaning and maintenance.

16EN
Anti-drip system
• The Anti-drip system (or also Drip Stop) function prevents liquids
from dripping, which occurs with steam irons when ironing at a lower
temperature. This function stops the generation of steam at a lower
temperature, thus preventing liquid from fl owing out of the ironing
surface.
Anti-calc system
• The appliance is equipped with a permanent Anti-Calc fi lter, which
reduces the formation of calcium deposits inside the iron. This fi lter
cannot be selected. The effectiveness of the fi lter depends on the
hardness of the water you use.
Auto-shut off function
• The iron switches off automatically if you leave it for 8 minutes without
moving when it is in a vertical position, or after 30 seconds without
moving it in a horizontal position. The device beeps and fl ashes to
indicate that it is switching off automatically.
• When you want to switch the iron on again, just move the iron. The
green auto power off light turns off. The red temperature light comes on.
When the red temperature light goes out and comes on again, the iron
is ready for reuse.
Warning!
• Although the iron is equipped with an automatic shut - off function, for
safety reasons, never leave it unattended when it is connected to the
mains.
Tips for ironing
- Always check the label on the ironing cloth, which also contains ironing
instructions. Always follow these guidelines.
- The iron heats up faster than it cools. Therefore, start by ironing textiles
requiring lower ironing temperatures that contain synthetic fabrics.
- If textiles contain different types of fi bers, always set the ironing
temperature according to the fi bers that are most sensitive to
temperature.
- Silk and other glossy textiles iron on the opposite side. To avoid it
to damage, ironing silk and other fi ne textiles do not use spraying.
- Warm it and similar fi ne fi ber fabrics iron it in just one direction. Apply
gentle pressure and always follow the movement of the iron.

17EN
