Cleaning &
Maintenance
Attention! Risk of burns!
Always unplug the appliance from
the mains supply before carrying
out any cleaning or maintenance
operation on it.
1. After ironing, pull out the plug and
allow the 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 (15). Switch off the steam
and rub off any residue immediately
with a thickly folded, dry cotton cloth.
5. Never use abrasive products or
solvents. To keep the soleplate
(15) smooth, you should avoid hard
contact with metal objects. Never
use a scouring pad, or chemicals to
clean the soleplate.

3. Place the iron on the iron pad,
standing on the soleplate.
4. Empty the water tank, store the mains
cable on the cord storage facility and
the steam hose in the storage xing.
Do not wrap the cords too tight.

Tips to help you
save energy
Steam production consumes the most
energy. To help minimise the energy
used, follow the advice below:
• Start by ironing the fabrics that require
the lowest ironing temperature.
• Check the recommended ironing
temperature on the label on the
garment.
• Regulate the steam according to the
selected ironing temperature, following
the instructions in this manual.
• Try to Iron the fabrics while they are
still damp and reduce the steam
setting. Steam will be generated from
the fabrics rather than the iron. If you
tumble dry your fabrics before ironing
them, set the tumble drier on the
‘iron dry’ programme.
• If the fabrics are damp enough, turn
off the steam regulator completely.
