cupboard or confined space. You can
store the steam generator in complete
safety.
11 • Cleaning the generator
The Iron soleplate: clean the soleplate of
your iron when it is cool with a damp
cloth or a non-abrasive sponge.
The base unit: Clean the plastic parts of
the appliance occasionally with a soft
cloth.
12 • Easy descaling of your
steam generator
To extend the life of your steam
generator and avoid scale on your
ironing, your steam generator is
equipped with a built-in scale collector.
This collector, located in the tank,
automatically removes the scale that
forms inside.
Operation:
An orange “Calc-Away System” light
located - fig.13 on the control panel
starts flashing to tell you that the scale
collector needs rinsing.
Once the steam generator has cooled
down completely, remove the scale
collector cover - fig.14.
Unscrew the scale collector valve and
remove it from the housing; it contains
the scale that has built up in the tank -
fig.15.
To clean the collector properly, just rinse
it under running water to remove the
scale it contains - fig.16.
Put the the collector back into its housing
and screw it in completely to keep it
watertight - fig.17.
Put the scale collector cover back on -
fig.18.
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.
To carry out this operation, the steam
generator must be close to a sink as
water may come out of the tank
when it is opened.
Do not use any descaling substances
(vinegar, industrial descaling
products, etc.) when rinsing the scale
collector : they could damage it.
Before emptying your steam
generator, it must always be left to
cool for 2 hours to avoid any risks of
scalding.
Do not use any cleaning or descaling
products for cleaning the soleplate or
the base-unit. Never hold the iron or
the base unit under the tap.
MAINTENANCE AND
CLEANING
The next time you use your iron,
press the “Restart” button on the
control panel to turn off the orange
“Calc-Away System” light.
