Cleaning the Boiler
To extend the life of your steam generator and to
prevent any build up of scale, it is essential that
you rinse out the filter (4) and the boiler after
several hours of use. If the water is hard,
increase the frequency.
Do not use descaling agents for rinsing out the
boiler, as they could damage it.
automatic clean warning
Pilot light (12*) will flash indicating that boiler
must be rinsed.
1. Check carefully that the appliance is cold and
unplugged for more than 2 hours, and that the
water tank (1) is empty.
2. Fix the iron to the stand by inserting the tip of
the iron into the front slot and moving the
fixation lever (14) against the heel of the iron.
3. Place your appliance over a sink or bucket.
4. Lean the appliance on the opposite side of the
filter opening.
5. Unscrew the filter (4) and take it out.
6. (model dependent)
To wash the filter, you may:
a. Place the filter under the water tap and wash
it up until calc residues are removed. Squeeze
the filter as indicated in the picture E.
b. Immerse the filter in tap water (250 ml) mixed
with a measure (25 ml) of descaling fluid.

7. Holding your steam generator in the lateral
position and using a jug, fill the boiler with 1/4
litre of water and replace the filter.
8. Shake the base unit for a few moments,
unscrew the filter again and empty the boiler
completely over a sink or bucket.
For best results, we recommend that this
operation is performed twice.
Important: before re-closing, make sure no
water remains in the boiler.
9. Replace and tighten up the filter.
To reset the “Calc'n'Clean” counter, switch
the steam station off twice, keeping it off for
at least 30 seconds each time.

Cleaning & maintenance
attention! risk of burns!
always unplug the appliance from the mains
supply before carrying out any cleaning or
maintenance operation on it.
1. After ironing, pull out the plug and allow the
appliance to cool down before cleaning.
2. Wipe the housing, handle and iron body with a
damp cotton cloth.
3. If the soleplate is soiled with dirt or scale, clean
it with a damp cotton cloth.
4. If the cloth is synthetic, it may melt due to the
high temperature on the soleplate (20). Switch
off the steam and rub off any residue
immediately with a thickly folded, dry cotton
cloth.
5. Never use abrasive products or solvents. To
keep the soleplate (20) smooth, you should
avoid hard contact with metal objects. Never
use a scouring pad, or chemicals to clean the
soleplate.

rinsing the iron steam
chamber
Caution! risk of burns!
This procedure helps to remove scale particles
out of the steam chamber.
This cleaning procedure may be performed
occasionally (approximately once a year), when
after a long period of use with very hard water,
scale particles start to come out of the soleplate.
a) Ensure that the iron is cooled down.
b) Set the temperature selector (16) of the iron to
the “min” position.
c) Fill the tank with tap water.
d) Plug in the mains cable and set the main
power switch (13) to the “I” position.
e) Wait until the “steam ready” indicator lamp (9)
lights up.
f) If the steam station has steam regulator (11*),
set it to the maximum position .
g) Hold the iron over the sink or a container to
collect the water.
h) Press the steam release button (17) and gently
shake the iron. Boiling water and steam will
come out, carrying scale and or deposits that
might be there. This could take approximately 5
minutes.
i) Set the temperature selector (16) of the iron to
the “max” position, without pressing the steam
release button (17). The water in the steam
chamber will start evaporating. Wait until all the
water inside the chamber has been evaporated.
j) To clean the soleplate, immediately rub off any
residue by running the hot iron over dry cotton
cloth.
