Important
Read the separate important information leaet and the user manual carefully
before you use the appliance. Save both documents for future reference.
Preparing for use
Filling the detachable water tank
Do not put hot water, perfume, vinegar, starch, descaling agents, ironing
aids or other chemicals in the water tank.
Fill the water tank before use and as soon as the ‘water tank empty’
light ashes.
1 Remove the detachable water tank from the steam generator and ll
the water tank with tap water.
Note:Your appliance has been designed to be used with tap water. If you live
in an area with very hard water, fast scale build-up may occur. In this case, it is
recommended to mix 50% distilled water and 50% tap water to prolong the
life of your appliance.
2 Slide the water tank back into the steam generator (‘click’).
’Water tank empty’ light
When the water tank is almost empty, the ‘water tank empty’ light goes
on and steam ironing is no longer possible. Fill the water tank to continue
steam ironing.

Using the appliance
OptimalTemp technology
Do not iron non-ironable fabrics.
This steam generator is equipped with OptimalTemp technology, which
enables you to iron all types of ironable fabrics without adjusting the iron
temperature or steam 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
polyolens (e.g. polypropylene), but also prints on garments.

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 detachable water tank’).
3 Put the mains plug in an earthed wall socket and press the on/off
button to switch on the steam generator. The ‘iron ready’ light starts
to ash, to indicate that the steam generator is heating up (this takes
approx. 2 minutes).
, When the ‘iron ready’ light lights up continuously, the steam
generator is ready for use.
4 Specic types only: Press the carry lock release button to unlock
the iron from the iron platform.

There are two steam boost functions for removing stubborn creases.
- Press the steam boost button for extra-strong steam output.
- Press the steam trigger twice quickly for a high continuous steam
output.You do not have to press the steam trigger continuously,
which gives a more comfortable ironing experience.
Vertical steam 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 steam 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 lightly with the soleplate.
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.

To ensure a long life for your steam generator, it is very important that
you perform the descaling procedure when the EASY DE-CALC light
starts to ash.
- The EASY DE-CALC light starts ashing after approx. one month or
10 ironing sessions to indicate that the steam generator needs to be
descaled.To descale the steam generator, perform the steps below.
Never remove the EASY DE-CALC knob when the steam generator
is hot.
1 Press the on/off button to switch off the steam generator and
remove the plug from the wall socket.
2 Place the steam generator on a stable table with the EASY
DE-CALC knob sticking out beyond the edge of the table or take
the steam generator to a sink.
3 Hold a cup under the EASY DE-CALC knob. Turn the EASY
DE-CALC knob anti-clockwise and let the water with scale particles
ow into the cup. When no more water comes out of the steam
generator, reinsert the EASY DE-CALC knob. Turn the knob
clockwise to fasten it and put the plug back into the socket again.
You can now use the steam generator again.
