See the leaflet sides
The “secure” auto shut-off function switches
off the iron when it is left unattended, thus
increasing security and saving energy.
If your iron is equipped with “secure” function,
you can find the text “auto off” on handle.
1. Plug in the iron.
2. Initial heating up process: this function will
be inactive for the first two minutes in order
to give the appliance time to reach the set
temperature.
3. The safety circuit will switch the appliance off
automatically and the indicator light (15*) will
start flashing in the following cases:
a
If the iron is not moved for 30 seconds
while resting on its soleplate or on its side.
b
If the iron is not moved for 8 minutes while
in the upright position.
4. To reconnect the iron, just move it about
gently.

See the leaflet sides
1. Switch the steam regulator (3) from to “max”

2. Empty the tank. Hold the iron with the point
down and shake lightly.
3. Store standing on the rear, not on the base.
4. Do not wrap the power cord (14) too tight!
Tips to help you save energy
Steam production consumes the most energy. To
help minimise the energy used, follow the advice
below:
1. Start by ironing the fabrics that require
the lowest ironing temperature. Check the
recommended ironing temperature in the label
on the garment.
2. Regulate the steam according to the selected
ironing temperature, following the instructions
in this manual.
3 Only use steam if necessary. If possible, use
the spray function instead.
Try to iron the fabrics while they are still damp
and reduce the steam setting. Steam will be
generated from the fabrics rather than the
iron.
If you tumble dry your fabrics before ironing
them, set the tumble drier on the ‘iron dry’
program.
4. If the fabrics are damp enough, turn off the
steam regulator (3) completely.
5. Stand the iron upright during pauses. Resting
it horizontally with the steam regulator on
generates wasted steam.
Cleaning & Maintenance
See the leaflet sides
E
Attention! Risk of burns!
Always unplug the appliance from the
mains supply before carrying out any
cleaning or maintenance operation on it.
1. If the iron is only slightly soiled, pull out the
plug and allow the soleplate (7) to cool down.
Wipe the housing and the soleplate with a
damp cotton cloth only.
