If your water is very hard, mix 50% untreated tap water 

with 50% distilled water (available in hardware stores).

PREPARATION

Which water should I use?

Filling the water tank

•  Your appliance was designed to operate using untreated 

tap water. However, it is necessary to periodically clean 
the steam chamber to remove any mineral deposits.

•   Do not use water with additive, pure demineralised 

or pure distilled water, water from clothes dryers, 
scented or softened water, rain water, filtered, bottled 
or boiled water, water from refrigerators, batteries, 
air conditioners or rain water as these may damage 
the iron. These types of water contain organic waste, 
mineral elements that become concentrated when 
heated and cause spitting, brown staining, leaking or 
premature wear on your iron

•  Unplug the iron before filling it.

•  Set the steam control to 

 .

•  Lift the iron and, holding it at a slight incline, point 

the soleplate up.

• Open the water tank cover. 

•  Fill the water tank to the mark “Max”.  

•  Close the water tank cover.

 

Max.
