• Your appliance has been designed to function with untreated
tap water. However, Self-cleaning of the appliance should be
carried out once a month.
• Never use any of the types of water below that contain orga-
nic waste or mineral elements and may cause spitting, brown
staining or premature ageing of your appliance : commercially
available pure demineralised water, water from tumble dryers,
scented water, softened water, water from refrigerators, water
from batteries, water from air conditioners, distilled water, rain
water, boiled or filtered water, bottled water, etc.
• The integrated anticalc system (according to model) gives bet-
ter quality ironing: a constant flow of steam throughout the iro-
ning session and lasting performance of your appliance.
Preparation

(
fig 1).

What water to use ?
Filling the water tank
Fill the tank up to the
“MAX”.
If you have very hard

commercially available
demineralised water in the
following ratio :
- 50% tap water,
- 50% demineralised water.
Use
• Select the temperature (see table below or iron’s heel) setting
the termostat facing the indicator (
fig 4).
• The thermostat light comes on (
fig 5). It will go out when the
soleplate is hot enough.
• Set the steam control (
fig 6) to the desired position, consulting
the table below.
Adjust the temperature and the steam
It is normal for the indi-
cator light to switch on
and off during ironing.
In order to avoid water
dripping from the iron
onto the linen :
- turn off the steam when
ironing silk or synthetic
fabrics.
- set it at the minimum
position for wool.
If you turn down the
thermostat, wait until the
thermostat light comes
back on before beginning
to iron again. When
ironing fabrics with mixed
fibres, set the ironing
temperature for the most
delicate fibre. For delicate
fabrics we recommend
testing the fabric first on
an inconspicious place eg
(inside the hem).
If you want to dry iron,
set the Steam control to
.
• Your iron heats up quickly : so begin by ironing fabrics that are
ironed at low temperatures first, then go on to those requiring a
higher temperature.
• To obtain extra steam, keep the slide switch in position
(according to model). When you release the slide switch, it auto-
matically comes back to .
