Descaling the filter
and the boiler
(calc’nClean plus)
To extend the life of your steam generator and to
avoid any build up of scale, it is essential that you
rinse out the filter (12) and 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.
If the “
” icon flashes, this indicates that the
boiler must be rinsed (three beeps may be heard).
Please proceed as follows:
1. Check carefully that the appliance is cold and
unplugged for more than 2 hours, and that the
water tank (1) is empty.
2. Fix the iron to the stand by inserting the tip of
the iron into the front slot and moving the fixation
lever (10) against the heel of the iron.
3. Place your appliance over a sink or bucket.
4. Lean the appliance on the opposite side of the
filter opening.
5. Unscrew the filter (12) and take it out.
6. To wash the filter, you may:
a. Place the filter under the water tap and wash
it up until calc residues are removed. Squeeze
the filter as indicated in the picture F.
b. Immerse the filter in tap water (250 ml) mixed
with a measure (25 ml) of descaling fluid.
The descaling fluid can be obtained from our
Aftersales Service or Specialist outlets:

7. Holding your steam generator in the lateral
position and using a jug, fill the boiler with 1/4 litre
of water and replace the filter.
8. Shake the base unit for a few moments, unscrew
the filter again and empty the boiler completely
over a sink or bucket.
For best results, we recommend that this
operation is performed twice.
Important:
before re-closing, make sure no water
remains in the boiler.
9. Replace and tighten up the filter.
To reset the “Clean” counter, switch the station
off twice, keeping it off for at least 30 seconds
each time.
(on → 30s off → on → 30s off → on)
Energy saving
“eco” button
(model dependent)
If the “Energy saving” button (7) is switched on, you
can save up to 25% of the energy and 40% of the
water consumption (*), and still achieve good results
when ironing most of your garments.
It is advisable to use the normal energy setting only
for thick and very wrinkled fabrics.
(*) In comparison to the maximum setting.
Note:
If you work with the “Energy saving” function,
the variable steam regulation and temperature
regulation can still be used as recommended.
“secure” auto shut-off
(model dependent)
If during ironing, the steam release button (13-14*)
on the iron handle is not pressed for a certain length
of time (8 minutes), the steam station will
automatically switch off.
The “
” icon will flash when auto shut-off has
been activated (three beeps may be heard).
To switch the steam station back on, press the steam
release button again.

Fabric protection
soleplate cover
(model dependent)
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 first 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 fits tightly. To release the soleplate cover, pull
the elastic strap and remove the iron.
The fabric-protection soleplate cover may be purcha sed
from the customer service or specialist shops :
