Descaling your generator easily :
For longer generator life, and to avoid scale emissions, your generator is
equipped with a built-in anti-scale valve. This valve, located in the tank,
automatically removes the scale that forms inside.
Operation:
• An orange “anti-scale” light located on the control panel starts blinking to
tell you that the anti-scale valve needs rinsing - fig.13
Caution: this operation must not be performed until the generator has
been unplugged for at least two hours and has completely cooled down.
When performing this operation, the generator should be placed near a
sink as water may flow out of the tank when it is opened.
• Once the generator has cooled down completely, remove the anti-scale
valve cap - fig.16
• Unscrew the anti-scale valve and remove it from the housing; it contains
the scale that has built up in the tank - fig.17 and fig.18.
• To clean the valve properly, just rinse it under running water to remove the
scale it contains - fig.19.
• Put the valve back into its housing and screw it in completely to keep it
watertight - fig.20.
• Put the cap back on.
The next time you use your iron, press the “reset” button on the control
panel to turn off the orange “anti-scale” light.
“Auto off” System
• For your safety, the generator is equipped with an “auto off” system which
switches the generator to standby mode if it is not used for 8 minutes or if you
forget to turn it off.
• A red light blinks on the control panel to indicate that the appliance is in standby
mode - fig.15.
• To reactivate the generator:
- Press the “Restart” button.
- Wait for the light on the “steam ready” button to stop blinking before your start
ironing again.
• If the steam trigger is not pressed for at least 8 minutes, the “auto off” system will
cut off your generator for your safety.
Storing your generatorr
• Place the iron on the iron rest of the generator.
• Press the illuminated on/off switch and unplug the generator.
• Raise the retaining hoop over the iron until it locks into place (audible click)
– fig.2. Your iron is then safely retained on its base.
• Store the steam cord in its slide storage place. Take it, fold it in two so as to
make a loop. Put the end of this loop in the slide storage place then push
gently until you see the end on the other side of the slide storage place –
fig.24.
• Fold the Ultracord system back on the heel - fig.8.
• Leave the iron (and the iron rest) to cool down for 1 hour.
• You can then put your steam generator away, carrying it by the handle of
the iron.
Environment protection first !
D

substances (vinegar,
industrial descaling products,
etc.) when rinsing the anti-
scale valve :
t
hey could damage it.
Before descaling or cleaning
your generator, you must let
i
t cool down for at least 2
hours to avoid any risk of
