Important

Read these instructions for use carefully before using the appliance and save them for future

reference.

◗Check if the voltage indicated on the type plate corresponds to the local mains voltage

before you connect the appliance.

◗Only connect the appliance to an earthed wall socket.

◗Do not use the appliance if the plug, the cord or the appliance itself shows visible damage, or

if the appliance has been dropped or is leaking.

◗Check the cord regularly for possible damage.

◗The soleplate of the iron can become extremely hot and may cause burns if touched.

◗Do not allow the cord to come into contact with the soleplate when it is hot.

◗When you have finished ironing, when you clean the appliance, when you fill or empty the

water tank and also when you leave the iron even for a short while: set the steam control to

4Fill the water tank with tap water up to the maximum level (fig. 3).

Do not fill the water tank beyond the MAX indication.

Do not put perfume, vinegar, starch, descaling agents, ironing aids or other chemicals in the water

tank.

◗If the tap water in your area is very hard, we advise you to mix it with an equal amount of

distilled water or to use distilled water only.

Setting the temperature

1Put the iron on its heel.

2Set the required ironing temperature by turning the temperature dial to the appropriate

position (fig. 4).

Check the laundry care label for the required ironing temperature:

1Synthetic fabrics (e.g. acrylic, viscose, polyamide, polyester)

1Silk

2Wool

3Cotton, linen

If you do not know what kind or kinds of fabric an article is made of, determine the right ironing

temperature by ironing a part that will not be visible when you wear or use the article.

Silk, woollen and synthetic materials; iron the reverse side of the fabric to prevent shiny patches.

Avoid using the spray function to prevent stains.

Start ironing the articles that require the lowest ironing temperature, such as those made of

synthetic fibres.

3Put the mains plug in an earthed wall socket.

4When the temperature light has gone out, wait a while before you start ironing (fig. 5).

The temperature light will go on from time to time during ironing.

Cleaning and maintenance

After ironing

1Remove the mains plug from the wall socket and let the iron cool down.

2Wipe scale and any other deposits off the soleplate with a damp cloth and a non-abrasive

(liquid) cleaner.

To keep the soleplate smooth, you should avoid hard contact with metal objects. Never use a

scouring pad, vinegar or other chemicals to clean the soleplate.

3Clean the upper part of the appliance with a damp cloth.

4Regularly rinse the water tank with water. Empty the water tank after cleaning.

Double-Active Calc System (specific types only)

◗The anti-calc tablet prevents scale from clogging the steam vents.The anti-calc tablet is

constantly active and does not need replacement (fig. 11).

◗The Calc-Clean function removes the scale particles.

Use the Calc-Clean function once every two weeks. If the water in your area is very hard (i.e. when

flakes come out of the soleplate during ironing), the Calc-Clean function should be used more

frequently.

1Set the steam control to position O.

2Set the temperature dial to MAX.

3Fill the water tank to the maximum level.

Do not pour vinegar or other descaling agents into the water tank.

4Put the plug in the wall socket.

5Unplug the iron when the temperature light has gone out.

6Hold the iron over the sink and set the steam control to the Calc-Clean position x(fig. 12).

7Pull the steam control slightly upwards and gently shake the iron until all water in the tank

has been used up.

Steam and boiling water will come out of the soleplate. Scale (if any) will be flushed out.

8After having used the Calc-Clean function, press down the steam control while turning it to

position O.

Repeat the Calc-Clean process if the water coming out of the iron still contains scale particles.

After the Calc-Clean process

1Connect the iron to the mains to let the soleplate dry.

2Unplug the iron when the temperature light has gone out.

3Move the iron gently over a piece of used cloth to remove any water stains that may have

formed on the soleplate.

4Let the iron cool down before you store it.
