It rests on the foot by the pointed end.

Step 4 · manual step 2
Free the leg from its clip and push the hook.
Hold the board steady. See the two close-ups in the manual, step 2.

Step 5 · manual step 2
Swing the legs open and lower the board.

Lift the board to the height you want.
Lever up, move it along the notches, then let it drop to lock (manual, step 3).
Tips & safety
- Never put a steam generator on the board. Tipping hazard. Don’t use this board with a steam generator, and keep it out of reach of children.
- Max 5 kg on the iron rest, 3 kg on the board. As shown in the manual, page 12.
- To fold it away: see the manual, pages 13–14. Lift the lever under the board, stand it on its end and press the leg back into its clip.
