Super hard sole plate  
Saphir-jet  
Your Braun steam iron has a unique sole plate  
made out of a special resistant alloy, polished  
with sapphire particles. This process developed  
by Braun makes the sole plate extremely durable  
and scratch resistant. Even ironing over sharp-  
edged fasteners, studs or zippers will not cause  
scratches that may snag or damage sensitive  
fabric. Thanks to its extra hardness, this sole  
plate will maintain its easy gliding properties  
throughout the life of the iron.

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.

sole plate always use steel wool. Never use a  
scouring pad, vinegar or other chemicals. The  
steam vents mand jet of steam outlets pmay  
be cleaned manually with a toothpick, if  
necessary. Clean the sole plate regularly if you

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.

To begin ironing, it is best to start with fabrics  
requiring a lower temperature (e. g. synthetics),  
and continue with those requiring a higher  
temperature (e. g. cotton, linen).  
Silk and silk-like synthetics tend to waterspot,  
therefore before using the water spray feature,  
test it on an inconspicuous spot first.
