SOLVING MINOR PROBLEMS YOURSELF
Adjusting the steam flow
• The steam flow setting can be adjusted to suit the type of ironing. Turning the

can be achieved by turning it to the right.
• The control knob is also the appliance’s pilot lamp.
Ironing without steam

• Make sure that there is water in the tank
• Press the spray “ ” button
Vertical steaming with jet of steam
• Never spray or aim steam at people !
• Set the temperature control to the “•••” or “max” position
• Hold the iron in an upright position 10-20 cm away from the object being

Ironing with jet of steam

Additional features:
(dependent on model)
Auto shut-off
A safety circuit carries out an initialization check when the iron is switched on.
The red OFF lamp will flash and the circuit will proceed to preheat the iron for 2
minutes.
After such time, if the iron has not been moved for 8 minutes while in the upright
position or 30 seconds while resting on its sole plate or on its side then the
safety circuit will switch the appliance off automatically and the red OFF lamp will
start to flash. To reconnect the iron just move it about gently.
Anti-scale system
Your iron is equipped with an anti-scale system, this will reduce the build up
of lime scale, consequently prolonging the life of the appliance. However, this
system does not completely prevent the formation of lime scale. Please read the
“After finishing each ironing session” section of the instructions for use. If you
live in a hard water area, please also read the “Filling the water tank” section of
the instructions for use
After finishing each ironing session
• Unplug the iron from the mains socket
• Empty out the water tank – hold the iron with the point facing down and shake
it gently
• Coil the cable around the heel of the iron but not too tightly
• Leave the iron standing in the vertical position to cool down before storing
Cleaning and maintenance
Attention ! Risk of burns !
•
Clean the body of the iron and the soleplate with a damp cloth and then dry it
• In the event that the soleplate is heavily stained: when the soleplate is cold,
iron a linen cloth soaked in white vinegar or stand the soleplate in a container
with vinegar for 15 minutes (maximum depth 1mm). Then dampen a cloth
with water and wipe the soleplate clean, then dry it thoroughly.
Or:
• To immediately remove any marks on the soleplate use a dry cotton cloth
folded several times with the iron set to the maximum temperature setting
• Do not de-scale or clean the water tank with cleaning products or solvents, as
these could cause the iron to drip when using the steam function
• Do not use a “professional steam cleaner” for cleaning the appliance
