Sudden jolts of the boiler unit can also
cause water droplets on the soleplate;
therefore, do not move the base unit during
ironing. We recommend for the first time
ironing that you iron over an old towel.
Vertical steam
Hold the iron in a vertical position
between 1cm and 2cm away from the item
I. Press the steam button ⁄, this will create
vertical steam. This feature is especially
useful for removing creases from hanging
clothes, curtains, wall hangings, etc.
Emptying and storing
When you have finished ironing, unplug
your iron.
1 Slide out the water tank and remove the
anti-scale cartridge J.
2 Empty the water in the tank by holding it
upside down K.
3 Replace the anti-scale cartridge and
reinstall the water tank.
Unplug the generator and leave the iron to
cool off for fifteen minutes minimum. The iron
must be placed on the iron rest plate.
The iron and boiler can now be stored
together.
Maintenance
To clean a stainless steel soleplate
To keep the soleplate of your iron clean
and free of limescale, we recommend that
you use one of the gentle chrome, silver or
stainless steel cleaners that are generally
available. Always follow the manufacturer’s
instructions. To clean off melted man-made
fibres, set the iron at 3-dot position and pass
it over a clean piece of cotton, this will draw
the deposit off the surface.
To clean the exterior
Allow the steam generator to cool and
wipe over with a damp cloth and mild
detergent, then wipe with a dry cloth.
