Storing the appliance
1
Unplug the appliance and let it cool down. Empty the water
tank (10).
2
Place the iron on the steam station, standing on the pad
(12).
If your steam station is equipped with iron lock system
(13*), fix the iron to it. First insert the heel and then block
the tip moving the lock system against the iron.
3
Store the steam hose (6) and the mains cable (7) on the

Trouble shooting
Problem
Possible causes
Solution
The iron begins to
smoke when
switched on.
1. During first use: certain
components on the appliance
have been lightly greased at the
factory and may produce a
small amount of smoke when
initially heated.
2. During subsequent use: the
soleplate may be soiled.
1. This is completely normal and
will stop after a short while.
2. Clean the soleplate according to
the cleaning instructions in this
manual.
Water flows
through the holes
on the soleplate.
1. The water is condensing inside
the tubes because steam is
being used for the first time or
has not been used for a long
time.
1. Point the iron away from the
ironing area and press the
steam release button until steam
is produced.
