Cleaning the soleplate
Your steam iron is equipped with a self-cleaning soleplate (depending on
model):
• Its exclusive active coating eliminates all impurities that can be generated under
normal conditions of use.
• Ironing using the incorrect temperature could however leave traces that require
manual cleaning. In this case, it is recommended that you use a soft damp cloth
on the still warm soleplate so as not to damage clothing.
Your steam iron is equipped with the Ultragliss soleplate (depending on
model):
• Clean with a damp non-metallic sponge or damp soft cloth while the soleplate
is still warm.
Storing your iron
• Unplug it and wait for the soleplate to cool down – fig.18.
• Empty the tank and set the steam control to . A little water may remain in the tank.
• Wind the cord around the heel of the iron. Position the iron on its support base – fig.19.

extend the life of your iron,
use the Self-Cleaning
function once a month.
Do not use corrosive or
abrasive products.
Warning! Using any
abrasive sponge damages
the self-cleaning coating
(according to model) of
your soleplate – fig.17.
