Model atmospheres and synthetic spectra of neutron star of the effective temperature 107 K are presented. All the iron spectral features in the energy range 6-10 keV (uncorrected for redshift) are washed out by instrumental or intrinsic broadening, which leaves only a single line of the equivalent width comparable with the observations.
