Energy saving "eco" setting

(model dependent)
If the "eco" steam setting on the steam regulator
(8*) is selected, the energy consumption of the
appliance will be reduced, by means of the
reduction of water consumption and electricity.
A good ironing result can be obtained for most of
the garments.
Use higher settings only for thick and highly
wrinkled fabrics.

Cleaning the Boiler

To extend the life of your steam generator and to
avoid any build up of scale, it is essential that you
rinse out the boiler after several hours of use
(approximately after 50 hours). If the water is
hard, increase the frequency.
Do not use descaling agents for rinsing out the
boiler, as they could damage it.
1. Check that the appliance is unplugged and cold
for more than 2 hours.
2. Unscrew the boiler´s cap (1)
3. Empty the boiler above a sink by holding the
appliance upside down.
4. Fill the boiler with 500 ml of fresh water.
5. Shake the base unit for a few moments and
then empty it completely over a sink or bucket.
6. To obtain the best result, we recommend that
this operation is done twice
7. Close the cap

appliance to cool down before cleaning.
2. Wipe the housing, handle and iron body with a
damp cotton cloth.
3. If the soleplate is soiled with dirt or scale, clean
it with a damp cotton cloth.
4. If the cloth is synthetic, it may melt due to the
high temperature on the soleplate (14). Switch
off the steam and rub off any residue
immediately with a thickly folded, dry cotton
cloth.

keep the soleplate (14) smooth, you should
avoid hard contact with metal objects. Never
use a scouring pad, or chemicals to clean the
soleplate.
