iron-off function
The iron-off function automatically switches off the soleplate when you

have not pressed the steam trigger for a particular number of minutes. The

number of minutes depends on the iron-off time you have selected.

You can select an iron-off time of 5, 10, 20 or 30 minutes (see section

‘Display menu’).

1

The display shows the text ‘IRON OFF’ and you hear an intermittent

beep.

If you want to iron again, press any button on the iron.

The soleplate heats up again.

Note: The iron-off function switches off the soleplate but does not switch

off the steam generator. If you intend to stop ironing, switch off the appliance

and unplug it.
tips

When you steam iron woollen fabrics, shiny patches may occur. To

prevent this, use a dry pressing cloth or turn the article inside out and

iron the reverse side.

Silk, woollen and synthetic materials: iron the reverse side of the fabric

to prevent shiny patches.

Iron velvet and other fabrics that tend to acquire shiny patches in one

direction only (along with the nap) while you apply very little pressure.

Do not use steam when you iron coloured silk. This could cause stains.

Cleaning and maintenance

after ironing

1

Put the iron on the iron stand (see chapter ‘Storage’) and switch off

the appliance.

Remove the mains plug from the wall socket and let the appliance

cool down.

Wipe scale and any other deposits off the soleplate with a damp

cloth and a non-abrasive (liquid) cleaner.

Clean the upper part of the iron and the outside of the steam

generator with a moist cloth.

5

Empty the water tank after cleaning.

Calc-Clean function

Never remove the Calc-Clean rinsing cap when the steam generator is

hot.
VERY IMPORTANT: Rinse the steam generator once a month or after

every 10 times of use to prevent damage to the appliance and for

optimal steaming performance.

Unplug the appliance and let it cool down for at least hours.
