Please read these
instructions carefully.
Remove any labels from
the soleplate before

Preparation
What water to use?
• Your appliance has been designed to operate using untreated tap water.
However, it is necessary to operate the Self-Clean function regularly in order
to eliminate hard water deposits from the steam chamber.
• Never use water containing additives (starch, scents, softeners, etc.), or water
produced by condensation (e.g. water from tumble-driers, refrigerators, air
conditioners, rain water). The types of water contain organic waste or mineral
elements that can cause spitting, brown staining, or premature wear of the
appliance.
Fill the tank up to the "MAX".
Never fill the appliance by holding it
directly under the tap.
Do not remove the anti-scale valve to
fill the water tank.
