DESCRIPTION
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance complies with the technical rules and standards for safety
currently in force (Electromagnetic Compatibility, Low Voltage,
Environment).
This appliance is not designed to be used by people (including children)
with a physical, sensory or mental impairment, or people without know-
ledge or experience, unless they are supervised or given prior instruc-
tions concerning the use of the appliance by someone responsible for
their safety. Children must be supervised to ensure that they do not play

Caution, before plugging in your iron, check that your mains voltage cor-
responds to the voltage indicated on the information panel on the iron.
Connecting to the wrong voltage may cause irreversible damage to the
iron and will invalidate the guarantee.
This iron must always be plugged into an earthed socket. If using a
mains extension lead, ensure that it is correctly rated. If you use an
extension lead, check that it is adapted to the power indicated on the
information panel on the iron.
If the electrical cord becomes damaged, it must be immediately replaced
by an Approved Service Centre to avoid any danger.
The appliance should not be used if it has fallen, if it has obvious
damage, if it leaks or has functional anomalies. Never dismantle your
appliance: have it inspected by an Approved Service Centre, so as to
avoid any danger.

your appliance: before filling or rinsing the reservoir, before cleaning it,
after each use.
Never leave the appliance unattended when it is connected to a power
source; if it has not cooled down for approximately 1 hour.
Your appliance gives off steam, which may cause burns, especially when
you are ironing on a corner of your ironing board. Never direct the
steam towards people or animals.
Your iron should be used and placed on a stable surface. When you put
your iron onto its iron rest, make sure that the surface on which you put
it is stable.
This product has been designed solely for domestic use. Any inappro-
priate use or use contrary to the instructions releases the brand from all
responsibility and renders the guarantee invalid.
Environment protection first !
Your appliance contains valuable materials which can be recove-
red or recycled. Leave it at a local civic waste collection point.
Keep these instructions
BEFORE USE
1 • Unpacking
Take the iron out of the box and remove all the stickers.
2 • What water may be used ?
Your iron has been designed to operate using untreated tap water
up to 17° dH (German water hardness) or 3 mmol/liter (If in doubt
consult your local water authority). However, if your water is very
hard, you can mix 50% untreated tap water with 50% distilled or
demineralised water.
IMPORTANT Before doing anything else, remove the soleplate
protector (fig.1)!
IMPORTANT Heat concentrates the elements contained in
water during evaporation. The type of water listed below
contain organic waste or mineral elements that can cause
spitting, brown staining or premature wear of the appliance:

3 • Using for the first time
Plug in the iron (fig.2) and set the temperature control dial (fig.3) to
••• to heat the appliance.
A little smoke and a slight smell may be emitted, but this is only
temporary.
Unplug the iron (fig.4) and fill the water tank (§ 4 Filling the water tank).
To remove any impurities in the iron's steam chamber, unplug the
iron and hold it over a sink horizontally. Push the steam control into
the Self Clean position : steam will now begin to build up. After a
few seconds water will emerge from the soleplate, rinsing any
impurities out of the steam chamber (fig.5).
Move the steam control to steam position after approx. 1
minute. Plug in the iron and allow the iron to heat up again.
Wait until the remaining water has evaporated. Unplug from the
mains and allow the iron to fully cool down.
water from clothes dryers, scented or softened water, water
from refrigerators, batteries or air conditioners, pure distilled
or demineralised water or rain water should not be used in
your iron. Also do not use boiled, filtered or bottled water.
USE
4 • Filling the water tank
Tilt the iron. Open the filling inlet (fig.6). Pour in water up to the
max mark (fig.7). Close the filler inlet (fig.8) and return the iron to
the horizontal.
5 • Setting the temperature
Set the iron temperature to suit the type of material using the
temperature control dial (fig.3).
Temperature control*: The temperature control light indicates that
the soleplate is heating up. When the temperature control light
goes off (fig.9), the set temperature is reached and you can begin
ironing.
IMPORTANT Before filling the water tank, unplug the iron and
set the steam control to dry position .

TIP Always spray starch onto the reverse side of the fabric to

up. We recommend that you start with fabrics to be ironed at
a low temperature. For mixed fabrics set the temperature for
the most delicate fabric.
