Before cleaning, ensure that

your steam generator is

nplugged and that the sole-

plate and the iron rest have

cooled down.

Do not use any

descaling substances

(vinegar, industrial

descaling products,

etc.) when rinsing the

anti-scale collector :

they could damage it.

Before descaling or

cleaning your

generator, you must

let it cool down for at

least 2 hours to avoid

any risk of burns.

Maintenance and cleaning

Cleaning your generator

• Do not use detergent or descaling products for cleaning the soleplate

base-unit.

• Never hold the iron or the base unit under the tap.

• Regularly clean the soleplate with a damp, non-metallic washing-up pad.

• Clean the plastic parts of the appliance occasionally with a soft cloth.

Descaling your generator easily :

For longer generator life, and to avoid scale emissions, your generator is equipped

with a built-in anti-scale collector. This collector, located in the tank, automatically

removes the scale that forms inside.

Operation:

• An orange “anti-scale” light located on the control panel starts blinking to tell you

that the anti-scale collector needs rinsing -

fig.11.

Caution: this operation must not be performed until the generator has

been unplugged for at least two hours and has completely cooled down.

When performing this operation, the generator should be placed near a sink

as water may flow out of the tank when it is opened.

• Once the generator has cooled down completely, remove the anti-scale collector

cap -

fig.12.

• Unscrew the anti-scale collector and remove it from the housing; it contains the

scale that has built up in the tank -

fig.13 and fig.14.

• To clean the collector properly, just rinse it under running water to remove the

scale it contains -

fig.15.

• Put the collector back into its housing and screw it in completely to keep it water-

tight -

fig.16.

•

Refit the scale collector cover -

fig. 18.

The next time you use your iron, press the “restart” button on the control panel

to turn off the orange “anti-scale” light.

Storing your generator

• Press the illuminated on/off switch and unplug the generator. Store the electrical

cord in its storage place –

fig.17.

• Raise the retaining hoop over the iron until it locks into place (audible click) –

fig.2.

Your iron is then safely retained on its base. Warning: do not touch the soleplate

while still hot.

• Wind the steam cord around the generator and insert it in its side storage place. –

fig.18.

• Leave the iron (and the iron rest) to cool down for 30 minutes.

• You can then put your steam generator away, carrying it by the handle –

fig.1.

Environment protection first !

Your appliance contains valuable materials which can be recovered or recycled.

‹ Leave it at a civic waste disposal centre.
