places it on standby after it has been left
unused for 8 minutes or in the event of it
being left on accidentally.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEA-
NING
13 • Cleaning the steam
generator
• The iron soleplate: clean the soleplate of
your iron when it is cool with a damp
cloth or non-abrasive sponge.
• The base unit: clean the plastic parts of
the appliance occasionally with a soft
cloth.
14 • Easy descaling of your
steam generator
• To extend the life of your steam generator
and avoid scale being deposited on your
ironing, your steam generator is equip-
ped with a built-in scale collector. This
collector, located in the tank, automati-
cally removes the scale that forms inside.
Operation:
• An orange “Calc-Away” light
- fig.17
located on the control panel starts flas-
If this occurs, pour away the excess
water.
Never hold the iron or the base unit
under a running tap.
Do not use any maintenance or desca-
ling product to clean the soleplate or
the base unit.
Do not use any descaling substances
(industrial descaling products, etc.)
when rinsing the scale collector or boi-
ler tank, they could damage it. Before
emptying your steam generator, it
must always be left to cool for 2 hours
to avoid any risk of scalding.
