FILLING THE RESERVOIR WHILE IRONING
• if the water in the reservoir falls below the minimum level, the water light will come on (4) and the iron will
stop producing steam;
• lift the lid on the water reservoir (1) and fill the reservoir with water. Do not allow the water to overflow. Then
close the lid (1).
• the appliance is now ready for use again.
CLEANING THE BOILER
The boiler should be cleaned regularly, at least once every 3 months.
When the boiler needs cleaning, the steam light (5) will flash for 20 seconds when the iron is turned on. The
light will then remain switched on and you can begin ironing.
The steam light (5) will flash whenever the iron is turned on, until the boiler is cleaned.
Only clean the boiler when the iron is completely cold.
Sequence of operations:
• disconnect the plug (7) from the mains;
• hold the boiler above a sink;
• shake the base to allow flakes of lime scale to fall out (Fig. B);
• remove the cap cover (12) at the base of the boiler, turning it anti-clockwise (Fig.C);
• unscrew the cleaning cap (13) in an anti-clockwise direction, using a coin (Fig. D);
• allow the water and flakes of lime scale to flow out of the hole;
• shake the boiler again, to remove any remaining water or lime scale;
• tighten the cleaning cap (13) in a clockwise direction, using a coin;
• replace the cap cover (12) turning it in a clockwise direction.
NOTE:
• do not screw the cleaning cap (13) too tightly, as you may damage the screw thread;
• do not clean the boiler with detergent, anti-lime scale products, vinegar or any other type of
substance;
• cleaning should only be done when the boiler is cold, at least 4 hours after it has been turned off.
After cleaning, always fill the reservoir with water before using the boiler again. This must be
done in order to prevent overheating.
AFTER USE
• press the buttons to turn off the iron/boiler main swich (2);
• disconnect the plug (7) from the mains;
• wait until the iron is completely cool before laying it flat. It is not necessary to empty the water reservoir.
NOTE:
• If you are not expecting to use the appliance for several weeks, empty the boiler completely: wait
for the appliance to cool down completely, then turn it upside down so that all the water in the
reservoir can flow out..
MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the iron:
Before cleaning your iron, turn it off and remove the plug from the socket!
If necessary, clean the iron with a damp cloth. Do not use solvents or other harsh, abrasive detergents, as they
may damage the surface.
Before re-using the appliance, check that all the cleaned parts are completely dry!
