cleaning and maintenance

Anti-calc system

•The water reservoir (12) with its anti-calc resin is designed to reduce the buildup of limescale that occurs during steam ironing.

•This will prolong the working life of your iron.

Cleaning the iron

•Do not use harsh abrasives, chemical cleaners or solvents to clean the casing of your iron, as these will damage its surface.

•To clean the occasional build-up of scale on the soleplate (14) and the casing, just wipe with a soft damp cloth.

•Always store the iron in an upright position on its heel (10) (ill. d ).

Storage

•To get the longest working life from your iron, it is best stored in a dry place.

•Disconnect the iron from the wall outlet.

•Empty the water reservoir (12) before storing the iron.

•When the iron has cooled completely, use the provided tie (11) to manage the power cord (11).

•Store the iron on a stable shelf or in a cupboard. To avoid accidents, ensure that both the iron and its power cord (11) are beyond reach of children or pets.
