ning the temperature regulator of the iron in a clockwise
direction. (Fig 2)
- Move the iron in a top to bottom direction while pres-
sing the steam control ( I ). Important: for cotton and
linen, it is recommended to put the iron base in contact
with the material. For other more delicate fibres, it’s
recommended to keep the iron base at some centimetres
of distance.
Once you have finished using the appliance:
- Select the minimum position (MIN) using the thermos-
tat control.
- Turn the appliance off, using the on/off switch.
- Unplug the appliance to the mains.
- Remove the water from the water tank.
- Clean the appliance
Cleaning
Disconnect the appliance from the mains and let it cool
before undertaking any cleaning task.
- Clean the equipment with a damp cloth with a few
drops of washing-up liquid and then dry.
- Do not use solvents, or products with an acid or base
pH such as bleach, or abrasive products, for cleaning the
appliance.
- Do not submerge the appliance in water or any other
liquid, or place it under a running tap.
How to deal with lime scale incrustations:
- For the appliance to work correctly it should be kept
free of lime scale or magnesium incrustations caused by
the use of hard water.
- To prevent this kind of problem, we recommend the use
of distilled water.
- However, if it is not possible to use the kind of water
recommended above, you should periodically remove the
lime scale from the appliance:
- Every 6 weeks if the water is “very hard”.
- Every 12 weeks if the water is “hard”.
- A specific anti-lime scale product should be used on
this kind of product.
- Homemade solutions are not recommended in the de-
scaling of this appliance, such as the use of vinegar.
Cleaning the detachable water heater
- Check that the appliance has cooled down (wait at least
3 hours after disconnecting the appliance)
-Empty the water tank (E) first and later the detachable
water heater
- To empty the detachable water heater open the stopper
lid of the boiler (k) and unscrew the deposit lid in an
anti-clockwise direction. (Fig. 3)
- Empty the water boiler and close it by screwing on the
stopper and turning it in a clockwise direction.
- Fill the water tank (E) with approximately 500ml of
water and add the selected anti-lime scale product.
- Connect the appliance (with the iron selected at maxi-
mum steam) and wait 20 minutes in order for the anti
lime-scale liquid begin to take effect.
Anomalies and repair
- Take the appliance to an authorised technical support
service if problems arise. Do not try to dismantle or repair
without assistance, as this may be dangerous.
- If the connection to the mains has been damaged, it
must be replaced and you should proceed as you would
in the case of damage.
- If any anomaly is detected, check the following table:
