Dry ironing
• Do not press the steam control button under the iron handle.
Vertical steam ironing

• As steam is very hot: never attempt to remove creases from a garment while it is
being worn, always hang garments on a coat hanger.
• Holding the iron in a vertical position - fig.14 tilted slightly forwards, press repeatedly
on the steam control button (underneath the iron handle) moving the iron from top
to bottom - fig.15.
Refilling the tank during use
• When the red «Tank empty» light is flashing - fig.4 , there is no more steam. The water tank is empty.

Maintenance and cleaning
Cleaning your steam generator
• Do not use any type of cleaning or descaling product to clean the soleplate or the base unit.
• Never hold the iron or the base unit under a running tap.
• Cleaning the soleplate: we recommend using a soft damp cloth on the soleplate while it is
still warm to avoid damaging the coating.
• Your steam iron is fitted with an Autoclean soleplate, its exclusive active coating allows it to
eliminate any impurities that may be regularly generated during normal conditions of use.
Ironing with an unsuitable programme could nonetheless leave traces that require manual
cleaning.
• We recommend always standing your iron upright or on the iron rest to protect its coating.
• Clean the plastic parts from time to time using a slightly damp soft cloth.
Easy descaling of your steam generator
To extend the life of your steam generator and avoid scale on your ironing, your steam
generator is equipped with a built-in scale collector. This collector, located in the tank,
automatically removes the scale that forms inside.
Operation:
• An orange «Anti-Calc collector» light located on the control panel starts flashing to tell you
that the Anti-Calc collector needs rinsing - fig.13.
Important: This operation must not be carried out unless the steam generator has
been unplugged for at least two hours and has cooled down completely. To carry out
this operation, the steam generator must be close to a sink as water may come out of
the tank when it is opened.
• Once the steam generator has cooled completely unscrew the scale collector - fig.17.
• Fully unscrew the collector - fig.18 and pull it out of the base unit - fig.19 , it contains the scale that has built up in
the tank.
• To clean the collector, simply rinse it under running water to remove any scale it contains - fig.20.
• You can soak the collector rod in white vinegar or lemon juice for a few hours to remove any stubborn scale stuck to
the rod.
Never use harsh or
abrasive cleaning
products.
Warning! The use of
abrasive pads will
damage the
soleplate coating- fig.26.
