“Ultimate steam”
function
(model dependent)
The “Ultimate steam” function helps to make a faster
softening of very stubborn garments like Jeans or
linen tablecloth. When activating the “Ultimate steam”
button (15*) the steam generator produces an extra
amount of steam. The function should be used during
intervals of a few seconds, to be the most effective.
1. set the temperature selector (13) on “•••”
2. press the “Ultimate steam” button (15*).
Important:
• The steam hose may get hot if you are ironing for
long periods.
• Note: Some water drops may appear when you
use the “Pulse steam” or the “Ultimate steam”
function for the irst time. The water drops will
disappear after you have used the function for
some time.
Ironing without steam
1. Begin ironing but without pressing the steam
release button.

Fabric protection
soleplate cover
(depending on the model)
The fabric-protection soleplate cover is used for
steam-ironing delicate garments at maximum
temperature without damaging them. Use of the
soleplate cover also does away with the need for a
cloth to prevent shine on dark materials.
It is advisable to irst iron a small section on the
inside of the garment to see if it is suitable.
To attach the soleplate cover to the iron, place the
tip of the iron into the end of the soleplate cover and
pull the elastic strap over the lower rear of the iron
until it its tightly. To release the soleplate cover, pull
the elastic strap and remove the iron.
The fabric-protection soleplate cover may be purchased
from the customer service or specialist shops:

Cleaning the Boiler
To extend the life of your steam generator and
to avoid any build up of scale, it is essential that
you rinse out the boiler after several hours of use
(approximately after 50 hours). If the water is hard,
increase the frequency.
Do not use descaling agents for rinsing out the
boiler, as they could damage it.
1. Check that the appliance is cold and unplugged
for more than 2 hours, and that the water tank (1)
is empty.
