• Unplug the CVG and fill the tank with the beaker that is supplied Fig 1 (12), in the vertical position as
shown in figure Fig 3.
• If the appliance were to run out of water completely, you would hear a strange noise from the
micro-pump. In this case, unplug the appliance and fill the tank with water. When you switch it on
again, this noise will disappear.
ANTICALC - SYSTEM
If you do not change the resin of your CIS it will be affected by scale just like other ironing systems.
• The Compact Vapor Generator is fitted with a replaceable anticalc - system consisting of a resin filter,
which retains the limy substances in the water, preventing these from reaching the steam chamber in
the sole-plate and thereby extending the life of your CVG. If you so wish, on this model you may replace
the resin so that the CVG is kept in optimum condition. If you want to replace the resin, we recommend
you to do it every 6 months. Changing the resin does not mean that you may overlook the advice about
water hardness given in the section “BEFORE STARTING TO IRON” .
• In the event of not changing the resin of this CVG, it will be subject to the effects of scale just like
other irons.
• For replacement and before removing it, make sure there is no water in the tank.
• Turn the part, situated in the heel of the appliance, in an anticlockwise direction as far as it will go, and the
arrow lines up with the open padlock (approx. 180º) and pull it back.
• To replace it, line up the arrow with the open padlock and turn it in a clockwise direction, fol-
lowing the directions in the drawing, pressing the part inwards at the same time, until reaching
the padlock closed position Fig 3.
• When the filter is in place, make sure that it DOES NOT STAND OUT of the back of the iron, otherwise
you will not have fitted it properly and water will leak from the tank.
CLEANING
A) Sole-plate
• Unplug the iron and let it cool down.
• Use environment-friendly clay-based products to clean the sole-plate.
B) Outside
• To clean the outside of your CVG, use a cloth moistened in soapy water.
• Do not clean with abrasive chemical products or solvents as it may attack certain plastic parts and
/ or remove some of the marks and / or indications.
• Store your CVG in the vertical position, wind the cord round the heel and secure it with the clip.
• Although the power cord is fitted with a 360º rotational elbow, NEVER FORCE this cord when
winding it around the appliance on the first turn.
