12. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the water reservoir
Unplug the iron. To empty the water
reservoir, open the water inlet cover (8)
and hold the iron with the hole facing
downwards until all the water has run out
(Fig. I). Shake the iron gently to remove any
drops left inside.
Storage
Leave the iron to cool down before storing
it away. If you do not use the iron on a
daily basis, it is a good idea to empty the
water reservoir after each use to extend the
useful life of the iron. Wind the cord around
the support base (do not wind tightly) and
store the iron away on its base.
Cleaning
Unplug the iron and wait until it has cooled
down before cleaning it. Clean the outside
and the sole with a damp cloth. Do not use
detergent or abrasive products. Do not
immerse the iron in water or run it under
the tap.
Self-clean
This function will remove limescale and
minerals accumulating in the steam
chamber. The sole will need to be self-
cleaned once you have used the steam
function for 5 hours. When this is needed,
the symbol will appear on the LCD
screen (4).
1. Half-fill the water reservoir, as described
in Section 3 “Filling the water reservoir”.
2. Place the iron upright and plug it in.
Press the “increase temperature”
regulator (6) to turn on the unit.
3. Set the maximum temperature. See
Section 4 “Setting the temperature”.
4. Hold the “increase temperature”
setting (6) down for 2 seconds to
switch the iron off and then unplug it.
5. Place the iron upright in the sink and
hold the self-clean button (10) down.
6. The steam and hot water will remove
the limescale and minerals created in
the steam chamber.
7. Move the iron carefully forward until
the water reservoir is empty and let
go of the self-clean button.
8. Place the iron on its support base
and leave it to cool down completely.
9. Wipe the sole with a damp cloth.
13. INFORMATION FOR THE
CORRECT DISPOSAL OF ELECTRICAL
AND ELECTRONIC APPLIANCES
At the end of its working
life, the product must not be
disposed of as urban waste.
It must be taken to a special
local authority differentiated
waste collection centre or
to a dealer providing this service. Disposing
of a household appliance separately avoids
possible negative consequences for the
environment and health deriving from
inappropriate disposal and enables the
constituent materials to be recovered to
obtain significant savings in energy and
resources.
To remind you that you must collaborate with
a selective collection scheme, the symbol
shown appears on the product warning
you not to dispose of it in traditional refuse
containers.
For further information, contact your local
authority or the shop where you bought the
product.
