Turning the iron on

Preparation
Stand the Active Ironing Board on a firm, level surface. Unwind the cord on the Ironing Board and carefully move the frame forwards.
The Active Ironing Board folds out and can be set to the required position. It can then be tipped forward to stand on the floor.
The active ironing board is gradually height-adjustable (max. height approx. 75-100 cm) and allows ironing while standing or sitting.
To adjust the height, take hold of the ironing board with both hands. Lift the ironing board up slightly and pull the lever with one hand. (The ironing board has to be slightly raised for safety reasons, i.e. to prevent the lever from being activated accidentally.) Only when you hear the ironing board lock into place is it secure.
Engage the cable holder [6] into the guide of the shelf. The cable holder can be moved sideways to the desired position.
With the help of the adjustable foot caps [10] it is possible to compensate for irregularities in the ground (rotate the adjustable foot caps clockwise or counter-clockwise).
Commercially available steam stations only may be used with the iron rest. To ensure trouble-free ironing, the steam station must be correctly positioned on the iron rest [7] in a horizontal position.
Plug the mains plug of the Active Ironing Board into a wall socket.
Plug the mains plug of the Active Ironing Board into a wall socket. Thus providing a power supply to the steam station.
The Active Ironing Board is ready for use.

Ironing

2. Suction and extraction function
The suction fixes the fabric on the table and thus counteracts the formation of creases. Set the function switch [4] to the suction and steam extraction function.
The simultaneous steam extraction reduces and prevents condensation and should be switched on at all times to remove excess steam from the active ironing board and the inside of the housing.
The steam extraction enables the steam to penetrate the fibers better, thus saving time and improving ironing results.
The steam suction and extraction function keeps the Active Ironing Table dry and helps to dry fabrics even whilst they’re being ironed.
It cools the laundry faster due to the fresh air flowing inwards, protects the fabric, and provides long-term crease protection.
3. Blower function
The blower function provides crease-free ironing results with delicate fabrics and items of clothing resting on a cushion of air.
It protects the delicate tissue and enables laundry items to cool off faster by the throughput of air, thereby preserving the fabric quality.
4. Dry ironing without steam
For dry ironing without steam, the blower functions can remain switched off.

Turning the iron off

First remove the steam station, first ensuring that you have read the instructions for use which came with your steam station and iron. Switch off the Active Ironing Board (0 settings).
Disconnect the cord for the Active Ironing Board from the mains [5] and take the steam station plug out of the socket.
Then remove the steam st. from the iron rest.

Storing the iron

Take hold of the Active Ironing Board with both hands, lift it up slightly, and fold together using the lever [2].
Wind the cord [5] up loosely in loops, making sure that it is not squashed or kinked.
The Active Ironing Board can be stored away folded up (with the universal iron rest at the top).
Place the Active Ironing Board in a safe position so that it will not fall over.
The transport lock should be engaged to secure the frame whilst the board is folded up.

Accessories

The ironing pressure and the collection of dust particles and dust reduces the permeability of the special ironing board cover and therefore the performance of the complete pressurized steam ironing system.
The special ironing board cover [1] is particularly permeable to air and steam.
Therefore, only use original accessories.

Maintenance and care

Maintenance and servicing work must always be carried out when the equipment has cooled down and has been disconnected from the power supply.
Dust should be removed from the ironing board on a monthly basis to guarantee ventilation function.
Depending on the configuration, to prevent germ formation in the sponge, the condensation collection tank [9] must be regularly removed and the sponge contained therein rinsed out, cleaned, and reused after drying.

Disposal

Please do not dispose of the device in the household waste.
Should you need to dispose of your appliance, it should first be rendered unusable (e.g. by cutting off the cord and the plug) and then disposed of in accordance with current regulations.
