Models without scale collector

• To prolong the life of your steam

generator and prevent the release of

scale on to your ironing, your steam

generator is fitted with an orange "Boiler

rinse” light that flashes on the control

panel when you need to drain the

appliance -

fig. 21.

• If the orange “boiler rinse” warning light

flashes, you can continue ironing

normally but remember to rinse the

boiler before you use it again.

• Place the steam generator on the edge of

your sink, with the iron placed to one

side, standing on its heel.

• Unscrew the boiler rinse cap cover anti

clockwise for a quarter of a turn - fig. 22.

• Using a coin, gently unscrew the boiler

rinse cap - fig. 23.

• Holding the steam generator in a tilted

position, and using a jug, fill the boiler

with ¼ litre of untreated tap water -

fig.

• Shake the base unit for a few moments -

fig. 25 and then empty it completely into

your sink -

fig. 26.

• To obtain the best results, we

recommend that this operation is done

twice.

• Screw back and tighten up the boiler

rinse cap with a coin - fig. 27.

• Put the boiler rinse cap cover back in

place -

fig. 28.

IMPORTANT! This operation must

not be carried out unless the steam

generator has been unplugged for at

least two hours and has cooled down

completely.

The next time you use the generator

press the “restart” button to turn off

the orange light.

The steam generator does not work

without the scale collector / boiler

rinse cap (according to model).

Regular descaling of your steam

generator helps to maintain its

steam performance over time

IS THERE A PROBLEM?

Problems Possible Causes Solutions

The steam generator does

not switch on or the iron

indicator and ON/OFF

indicator do not switch

on.

The appliance is not

switched on.

Check that your appliance is correctly

plugged in and press the illuminated on/off

switch.

Water runs through the

holes in the soleplate.

You use steam too

frequently when your iron

is not hot enough.

Wait for the thermostat light to go out

before activating the steam button.

Adjust the frequency of use of the steam

trigger to match the position of the

thermostat (see § 6).

Water has condensed in the

pipes because you are using

steam for the first time or

you have not used it for

some time.

Press on the steam control button away

from your ironing board until the iron

produces steam.
