clothes . This will enable
any cold water to be ejected
from the steam circuit.
MODE ECO:
Your steam generator iron has an ECO mode function which uses less power whilst still guaranteeing a sufficient steam flow for you to
iron your garments properly. In order to use this function, once the thermostat of your iron has been correctly set (see table above),
position the steam flow setting on the ECO segment
or very creased fabrics, we recommend that you use the maximum steam flow for best results.

Dry ironing

• Do not press the steam control button under the iron handle.
Recommendations: for
fabrics other than linen or
cotton, hold the iron a few
centimetres from the
garment to avoid burning
the fabric.

Refilling the water tank

remains lit, the steam is ready.
• Your appliance includes the Power Zone function: concentrated steam shot at the tip of the soleplate, to be used in particular
to target stubborn creases, detailing and zones that are difficult to access.
• To use this function, press the Power Zone function on top of the iron as often as necessary
Catalysis Autoclean Soleplate
• The iron of your steam generator comes with a self-cleaning soleplate which functions by catalysis.
• Its unique coating makes it possible to continually eliminate all the impurities arising from normal usage.
• We recommend you always place your iron on its base or on the iron rest plate in order to protect its self-cleaning
coating.
