ANTI-SCALE SYSTEM
This iron has an anti-scale cartridge which
purifies the water, and temporarily and
permanently eliminates water hardness.
The appliance has an electronic system
which controls the life-span of the anti-
scale cartridge. The cartridge has anti-
scale resins. Depending on the hardness
of the water and usage, the cartridge will
sometimes need changing.
Water hardness selector
For the appliance to function correctly, the
water hardness should be selected. The
procedure for this is as follows:
1. Press and hold down the water hardness
button
(l)
until it begins to flash.
2. Select the water hardness by repeatedly
pressing the button
(l)
.
If you do not know the water hardness in
your area, consult your distributor or use
the water hardness measurement strip.
When the change anti-scale cartridge indicator
(g)
blinks, the cartridge must be replaced.
Keep the steam button pressed down until
the anti-scale change indicator
(g)
switches
off in order to remove the water remaining
in the machine’s connection tubes.
If you don’t have a new cartridge, you can
use distilled water instead of tap water and
continue to use the appliance.

8. INFORMATION FOR THE CORRECT
DISPOSAL OF ELECTRICAL AND
ELECTRONIC APPLIANCES
At the end of its working
life, the product must not
be disposed of as urban
waste. It must be taken to
a special local authority
differentiated waste
collection centre or to a
dealer providing this service. Disposing of
a household appliance separately avoids
possible negative consequences for the
environment and health deriving from
inappropriate disposal and enables the
constituent materials to be recovered to
obtain significant savings in energy and
resources.
To remind you that you must collaborate
with a selective collection scheme, the
symbol shown appears on the product
warning you not to dispose of it in
traditional refuse containers.
For further information, contact your local
authority or the shop where you bought the
product.

1. The anti-scale cartridge cannot be
changed unless the water tank is removed.
2. If the cartridge’s compartment is not
correctly installed, there will be a
continuous beeping sound when the
steam button is pressed.
3. If the anti-scale cartridge is replaced in
the “Off” mode, the electronic system
will not recognise that the cartridge
has been changed.
Important:
1. Please try not to use an anti-scale
cartridge which has run out. This will
cause damage to the appliance and
the electronic system.
2. Please don’t leave the anti-scale
cartridge compartment open. This will
cause damage to the appliance and
the electronic system.
