Be careful:
• To ensure that the steam generator tank continues to function efficiently and avoid scale
being discharged, the steam generator tank must be rinsed out once in every 10 times it
is used.
• Do not under any circumstance use descalers for rinsing the steam generator tank : this
could damage it.
9- PUTTING YOUR STEAM GENERATOR AWAY
1. Unplug the appliance from the socket
2. Place the iron on the rest
3. Put the power cord in the appropriate compartment
4.Tidy away the iron-base cord by making a loop passing over the front of the generator and then fastening
the cord in the clip .
5. Let the iron and iron rest cool for 30 minutes.
You can then safely put your steam generator away.
10- CARING FOR YOUR STEAM GENERATOR
• Be careful, ensure that the appliance is not plugged in and the soleplate has cooled down
before cleaning.
• Do not use detergent or descaling products to clean the soleplate or steam generator tank.
• Never put the iron or base under the tap
• Do not place the iron on a metal rest as this could damage it. Place it on the iron-rest on the base: it has
non-slip pads and has been designed to withstand high temperatures
The iron soleplate: Regularly clean the soleplate with a damp, plastic, non-metallic washing up pad. If you are
using starch, it should be sprayed onto the reverse side of the fabric to be ironed.
The base: Clean the plastic parts of the appliance occasionally with a slightly damp cloth.
11- RINSING OUT THE STEAM GENERATOR TANK
12- SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
1. Check that the steam generator is cold, is unplugged for more than 2 hours prior to
cleaning and the water tank is empty.
2. Unscrew the cord clip by turning a quarter turn to the left .
3. Using a coin unscrew the steam generator plug .
4. Using a jug, fill the steam generator tank (in the base) with 1/4 litre of water through the generator drain
plug hole.
5. Shake the base for a few moments and then empty completely over a sink or bucket .
6. Replace and tighten up the steam generator plug, without filling up again.
7. Put the cord clip back in place .
• Your steam generator is an electric appliance. It should be used in normal usage conditions.
• This appliance is intended for domestic use only. It is fitted with 2 safety systems :
- A pressure release valve which, in the event of a malfunction, releases any excess steam.
- An overheat fuse to prevent the appliance from overheating.
• Always plug your steam generator into:
- An electrical installation with voltage between 220 and 240V. Connecting to the wrong voltage may cause irrepa-
rable damage to the appliance and will invalidate your guarantee.
- An earthed socket. If you are using a mains extension lead, ensure that it is correctly rated (10A) with an earth,
and is fully extended.
• If the power cord or iron-base cord is damaged, they must be replaced by an Approved Service Centre as this is dan-
gerous.
Be careful:
•
The soleplate and generator iron-rest can become very hot and cause burns: never touch these parts.
• Your appliance gives off steam which can cause burns.
• Handle your iron carefully, particularly when using the vertical steam function
