Vertical steam ironing

on the control panel) to the MAX position.
• Hang the garment on a coat hanger and hold the fabric slightly taut with one
hand.

the steam control button (underneath the iron handle) moving the iron from top
to bottom –

Maintenance and cleaning
Cleaning your generator
• Do not use detergent or descaling products for cleaning the soleplate
base-unit.
• Never hold the iron or the base unit under the tap.
• Empty and rinse the removable water tank
• Regularly clean the soleplate with a damp, non-metallic washing up pad.
• Clean the plastic parts of the appliance occasionally with a soft cloth.
• IIrro on n tte em mp pe erra attu urre e sse ettttiin ng g::
- Start with the fabrics to be ironed at a low temperature (•) and finish with those
which need higher temperatures (••• or Max).
- Mixed fibre fabric: set the ironing temperature to the setting for the most
delicate fabric.
- Woollen garments: press repeatedly on the steam control button –
fig.8 to
obtain short bursts of steam, without placing the iron on the garment itself.
• • S Stte ea am m o ou uttp pu utt sse ettttiin ng g::
- Thick fabric: increase the steam setting.
- At a low temperature : set the steam output control dial to the low position.
To prime the steam circuit,
either before using the
iron for the first time, or if
you have not used the
steam function for a few
minutes, press the
steam control button
several times in a row,
holding the iron away from
your clothes. This will enable
any cold water to be ejected
from the steam circuit.
Recommendations : for
fabrics other than linen or
cotton, hold the iron a few
centimetres from the
garment to avoid burning
the fabric.
Before cleaning, ensure
your steam generator is
unplugged and that the
soleplate and the iron
have cooled down.
