10 - RINSING OUT THE BOILER
Caution:
• To extend the life of your boiler and to avoid any build-up of scale, it is essential that you
rinse out the boiler after every 10 uses. If your water is hard, increase the frequency.
• Never use descaling agents to rinse out the boiler : they could damage it.
1. Press the 2 switches (K and L) on the control panel.
2. Unplug the generator.
3. Place the iron on its rest-plate (E).
4. Allow the iron (and the rest-plate) to cool down for 30 minutes.
You can then put your steam generator away in full safety.
1. Make sure that the generator has cooled down and has been unplugged for more than 1 hour.
2. Use a jug and fill the boiler with tap water until 3/4 full.
3. Shake the base unit a little then empty it out completely into a container.
For best results, we recommend that you repeat the operation once more.

• Before cleaning your appliance, make sure that it is disconnected and the soleplate (D) and the
iron rest-plate (E) have cooled down.
• Do not use any cleaning or descaling agents to clean the soleplate or boiler.
• Never put the iron or the base unit under the tap.
• Do not place the iron on a metal rest as this could damage it.
Always place it on the rest-plate on the base unit (E) : it is fitted with non-slip inserts and has
been designed to withstand high temperatures.
Your iron's soleplate : Clean the soleplate with a damp cloth after each ironing session.
The base unit : From time to time, clean the plastic parts of the appliance with a slightly damp, soft cloth.
VERY IMPORTANT:
Before you open your boiler, ensure that there is no steam left in it. To do this, press the steam control
button (A) until there is no steam left.
1. Press the 2 switches (K and L) on the control panel.
2. Unplug the generator.
3. Slowly unscrew the boiler cap (F).

If any water spills out, wipe off the excess.
