Models without scale collector
• To prolong the life of your steam
generator and prevent the release of
scale on to your ironing, your steam
generator is fitted with an orange "Boiler
rinse” light that flashes on the control
panel when you need to drain the
appliance -
fig. 21.
• If the orange “boiler rinse” warning light
flashes, you can continue ironing
normally but remember to rinse the
boiler before you use it again.
• Place the steam generator on the edge of
your sink, with the iron placed to one
side, standing on its heel.
• Unscrew the boiler rinse cap cover anti
clockwise for a quarter of a turn - fig. 22.
• Using a coin, gently unscrew the boiler
rinse cap - fig. 23.
• Holding the steam generator in a tilted
position, and using a jug, fill the boiler
with ¼ litre of untreated tap water -
fig.
24
.
• Shake the base unit for a few moments -
fig. 25 and then empty it completely into
your sink -
fig. 26.
• To obtain the best results, we
recommend that this operation is done
twice.
• Screw back and tighten up the boiler
rinse cap with a coin - fig. 27.
• Put the boiler rinse cap cover back in
place -
fig. 28.
IMPORTANT! This operation must
not be carried out unless the steam
generator has been unplugged for at
least two hours and has cooled down
completely.
The next time you use the generator
press the “restart” button to turn off
the orange light.
The steam generator does not work
without the scale collector / boiler
rinse cap (according to model).
Regular descaling of your steam
generator helps to maintain its
steam performance over time
IS THERE A PROBLEM?
Problems Possible Causes Solutions
The steam generator does
not switch on or the iron
indicator and ON/OFF
indicator do not switch
on.
The appliance is not
switched on.
Check that your appliance is correctly
plugged in and press the illuminated on/off
switch.
Water runs through the
holes in the soleplate.
You use steam too
frequently when your iron
is not hot enough.
Wait for the thermostat light to go out
before activating the steam button.
Adjust the frequency of use of the steam
trigger to match the position of the
thermostat (see § 6).
Water has condensed in the
pipes because you are using
steam for the first time or
you have not used it for
some time.
Press on the steam control button away
from your ironing board until the iron
produces steam.
