Cleaning
lf the iron is only slightly soiled, pull out the plug
and allow the soleplate to cool down. Wipe the
housing and the soleplate with a damp cloth only.
lf synthetic cloth melts due to too high
temperature on the stainless steel soleplate,
switch off the steam and rub off the residue
immediately with a thickly folded, dry cotton cloth.

hard contact with metal objects. Never use a
scouring pad, or chemicals to clean the soleplate.
Never decalcify the tank or treat it with detergents
or solvents: otherwise the iron will drip water

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.

BO SCH
• Regulate the steam according to the selected
ironing temperature, following the instructions
in this manual.
• Only use steam if necessary. If possible, use
position. the spray function instead.
• 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, turn off the
steam regulator completely.
• Stand the iron upright during pauses. Resting
it horizontally with the steam regulator on
generates wasted steam.
