Spray Setting

- This feature is ideal for stubborn wrinkles or 

set in creases.

- Ensure there is water in the tank then press 

the spray button.

- Do not spray silk.

Anti-Drip System

- In order to produce steam, all irons require a high tempera-

ture. If the soleplate is not hot enough some of the water will
not turn to steam and can spit or leak from the soleplate. 
The Anti-Drip system automatically switchez off the steam 
when ironing at low temperatures to prevent spitting.

Anti-Calc System

- Minerals in water can build up in the steam chamber. 

The Anti-Calc system contains a special material that 
neutralizes the harmful minerals. This system is designed 
to extend and main-tain the high steam performance of the 
iron. The cartridge is not replaceable.

Self Clean

Warning! Do not use descaling agents. They can damage the 
lining of the steam chamber.

This feature allows loose mineral deposits and other impuri
ties to be flushed from the soleplate.
Self Clean should be carried out occasionally and at least
once  a month.

- Fill the iron with tap water to the max mark

on the water tank.

- Be sure that variable steam lever is set to m

minimum.

- Stand the iron onheel and plug in.

`

- Set thermostat to ••• setting.
- Once heated, unplug iron.
-  Hold iron horizontally over the sink with the 

soleplate pointing away from body.

- Move the variable steam lever completely to

the right and hold in the self clean position 
for one minute.

Warning! Doing this will cause steam and hot water to be 
ejected from the soleplate. Take all proper precautions and 
hold iron away from body.

-  Move the iron gently back and forth and side to side until all

water has run through plate.

- Carfully wipe all water and material from the soleplate with 

an old towel, as the water and minerals can stain the sole-
plate (although this has no effect on glide of performance).
