Fabric protection
10
soleplate cover
(model dependent)
The fabric-protection cover (18*) is used for steam-
ironing delicate garments at maximum temperature
without damaging them.
Use of the protector also does away with the need
for a cloth to prevent shine on dark materials.
It is advisable to first iron a small section on the
inside of the garment to see if it is suitable.
To attach the fabric protector to the iron, place
the tip of the iron into the end of the fabric
protector and press the rear of the protector
upward until you hear a click. To release the
fabric protector, pull down on the clip at the rear
and remove the iron.
Cleaning &
11
Maintenance
Attention ! Risk of burns !
Always unplug the appliance from the mains
supply before carrying out any cleaning or
maintenance operation on it.
• If the iron is only slightly soiled, pull out the
plug and allow the soleplate (13) to cool down.
Wipe the housing and the soleplate with a
damp cotton cloth only.
• If the cloth is synthetic, it may melt due to
the high temperature on the soleplate (13),
switch off the steam and rub off any residue
immediately with a thickly folded, dry cotton
cloth.
• To keep the soleplate (13) smooth, you should
avoid hard contact with metal objects. Never
use a scouring pad, or chemicals to clean the
soleplate.
• Never decalcify the tank (11) or treat it with
detergents or solvents, otherwise the iron will
drip water whilst steaming.
12
Storing the appliance
• Open the water inlet lid (9).
• Hold the iron with the front facing down and
shake it gently until the water tank (11) is empty.
• Set the iron aside in a vertical position to cool
down.
• Coil the power cable (16) loosely around the
heel of the iron, before storing.
• Store the iron in an upright position.
Tips to help you save
energy
Steam production consumes the most energy. To
help minimise the energy used, follow the advice
below:
• Start by ironing the fabrics that require
the lowest ironing temperature. Check the
recommended ironing temperature in the label
on the garment.
• Regulate the steam according to the selected
ironing temperature, following the instructions
in this manual. Iron at "eco" steam setting (see
"setting the steam level" section).
• Try to iron the fabrics while they are still damp
and reduce the steam setting. Steam will be
generated from the fabrics rather than the iron. If
you tumble dry your fabrics before ironing them,
set the tumble drier on the 'iron dry' programme.
• If the fabrics are damp enough, set the steam
to the
position (see "ironing without steam"
section).
