After Ironing - Miele HM 16-80 Operating Instructions Manual

Tips
If creases appear in the item you are
ironing:
Stop the roller, pull the item back
slightly and smooth out. If necessary,
dampen again with a wet cloth.
If possible, always use the whole length
of the roller, otherwise the roller will lose
its elasticity.
For small items such as handkerchiefs,
alternate between using the right and
left hand sides of the roller.
Items with raised buttons should be
ironed face down on to the roller so that
they are pressed into the cushioned
surface.
To protect the heater plate from dam-
age a cloth should be placed over zip
fasten-ers, metal and buttons and
hooks when ironing.
To protect the heater plate, do not iron
items with non-heat resistant or very
large buttons, e.g. knobbly buttons.
When you have nearly finished ironing
you can turn the temperature selector
to " g " cold and continue ironing small
items with residual heat.

After ironing

^ Switch the appliance off.
^ Turn the Q Steam button off.
^ Turn the temperature to " g " cold.
^ Switch off at the mains and then re-
move the plug from the socket.
If the ironer is to be put away:
^ Allow the heater plate to cool down.
^ Before folding the ironer away make
sure that the water reservoir cap is
securely tightened.
^ When the heater plate has cooled
down, fold up the rotary ironer.
^ Wind up the mains cable.
^ Pull the cover on.
Do not install the ironer in a room
where the temperature may drop
down to or below freezing. The very
low temperatures could cause the
water in the reservoir or in the steam
connection hoses to freeze causing
damage to the appliance.
