Important
Read the separate important information leaet and the user
manual carefully before you use the appliance. Save both
documents for future reference.
Using your appliance
Filling the water tank
Fill the water tank before every use and when the ‘water tank
empty’ light ashes.
Do not add perfume, water from the tumble dryer, vinegar,
starch, descaling agents, ironing aids, chemically descaled
water or other chemicals, as they may cause water spitting,
brown staining or damage to your appliance.
1 Remove the water tank from the appliance and ll it with
tap water up to the MAX indication.
Tip: Your appliance has been designed for use with tap water.
ENGLISH 7
If you live in an area with very hard water, scale builds up
quickly. In this case it is recommended to use distilled water
to prolong the life of your appliance.
2 Put the water tank back into the appliance by sliding in the
bottom part rst. Then push the top part until it locks into
place.
‘Water tank empty’ light
When the water tank is almost empty, the ‘water tank
empty’ light goes on. Fill the water tank and press the steam
trigger to let the appliance heat up again. When the ‘iron ready’
light lights up continuously, you can continue steam ironing.
OptimalTEMP Technology
The OptimalTEMP Technology enables you to iron all types
of ironable fabrics, in any order, without adjusting the iron
temperature setting.
Fabrics with these symbols are ironable, for example linen,
cotton, polyester, silk, wool, viscose and rayon.
Fabrics with this symbol are not ironable. These fabrics include
synthetic fabrics such as Spandex or elastane, Spandex-mixed
fabrics and polyolens (e.g. polypropylene), but also prints on
garments.
Ironing
1 Place the steam generator on a stable and even surface.
2 Make sure that there is enough water in the water tank
(see section ‘Filling the water tank’).
3 Put the mains plug in an earthed wall socket and press the
on/o button to switch on the steam generator. The blue
power-on light on the appliance and the ‘iron ready’ light
start to ash to indicate that the appliance is heating up
(this takes approx. 2 minutes).
, When the appliance is ready for use, the ‘iron ready
light’ and the power-on light stop ashing and light up
continuously.

Vertical ironing
Hot steam is emitted from the iron. Never attempt to remove
creases from a garment that someone is wearing. Do not
apply steam near your or someone else’s hand.
You can use the iron in vertical position to remove wrinkles
from hanging fabrics.
1 Hold the iron in vertical position, press the steam trigger
and touch the garment slightly with the soleplate.
ENGLISH 9
Putting down the iron during ironing
- During ironing, you can place the iron either on the iron
platform or horizontally on the ironing board. Thanks to the
OptimalTEMP technology, the soleplate will not damage
the ironing board cover.

Ironing tips
Minimising wrinkles while drying
Start wrinkle removal early in the drying process by spreading
out your laundry properly after washing and by putting
garments on hangers to make them dry naturally with fewer
wrinkles.
Best practice shirt ironing
Start with the time-consuming parts like collar, cu links and
sleeves. Next, iron the bigger parts like front and back to
prevent wrinkling the bigger parts when you are busy ironing
the time-consuming parts.
Collar: When you iron a collar, start on its underside and work
from the outside (the pointy end) inwards. Turn over and
repeat. Fold down the collar and press the edge for a more
crisp nish.
Buttons: Iron on the reverse side of the buttons for more
eective and faster ironing.
Cleaning and maintenance
To properly maintain your appliance, clean the iron and the
appliance regularly.
1 Clean the appliance with a moist cloth. To remove
stubborn stains, you can use a small amount of washingup liquid.
2 To easily and eectively remove stains from the soleplate,
switch on the appliance and let it heat up. When the
appliance has heated up, move the iron over a moist cloth
while you press the steam trigger.
Tip: Clean the soleplate regularly to ensure smooth gliding.
IMPORTANT - DESCALING
It is very important to perform the descaling procedure as
soon as the EASY DE-CALC light starts to ash.
The EASY DE-CALC light ashes after about a month or 10
ironing sessions to indicate that the appliance needs to be
descaled. Perform the following descaling procedure before
you continue ironing.
To avoid the risk of burns, unplug the appliance and let it cool
down for at least two hours before you perform the descaling
procedure.
1 Remove the plug from the wall socket.
2 Place the appliance on the edge of the tabletop.
ENGLISH 11
3 Hold a cup (with a capacity of at least 350ml) under the
EASY DE-CALC knob and turn the knob anticlockwise.
4 Remove the EASY DE-CALC knob and let the water with
scale particles ow into the cup.
5 When no more water comes out of the appliance, reinsert
the EASY DE-CALC knob and turn it clockwise to fasten it.
Storage
1 Switch o the appliance and unplug it.
2 Remove the water tank and empty it.
3 Put the iron on the iron platform. Push the carry lock to
lock the iron onto the platform.
4 Fold the supply hose and mains cord. Put them in their
respective storage compartments.

the EASY DE-CALC knob is
worn.
Impurities or chemicals
present in the water have
deposited in the steam
