When you have finished ironing place
the iron on the rest(6). Take care that
there are no traces of condensation
under the sole plate as this could
cause staining.
•
Wiping the cold sole plate with a
damp cloth is enough to keep it
clean. Descaling agents should not
be used to clean the appliance.
•
The iron should not be passed over
zips, buttons, rings, eyes etc. to
prevent scratching the sole plate.

We recommend you rinse out the steam
pressure unit (12) before using the iron
on day of cleaning and to rinse every two
weeks. Do not use anything but water in
steam pressure unit (never detergents).
