Fabric protection soleplate
cover (E)
(depending on the model)
The fabric-protection soleplate cover is used for steam-
ironing delicate garments at maximum temperature without
damaging them. Use of the soleplate cover 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 soleplate cover to the iron, place the tip of the
iron into the end of the soleplate cover and pull the elastic
strap over the lower rear of the iron until it fits tightly. To
release the soleplate cover, pull the elastic strap and remove
the iron.
The fabric-protection soleplate cover may be purchased from
the customer service or specialist shops:

“Calc‘n clean” (F)
Cleaning the Boiler
To extend the life of your steam generator and to avoid any
build up of scale, it is essential that you rinse out the boiler
after several hours of use (approximately after 50 hours). If
the water is hard, increase the frequency.
Do not use descaling agents for rinsing out the boiler, as they
could damage it.
1. Check that the appliance is cold and unplugged for more
than 2 hours, and that the removable water tank (1) is
empty.
2. Place your appliance on the edge of your kitchen sink.
3. Remove the plastic cover located on the bottom of the
appliance by turning it to the
position.
4. Unscrew the boiler drainage plug located on the bottom of
the appliance using a coin.
5. Holding your steam generator in upside down position,
and using a jug, fill the boiler (in the base unit) with 1/4 litre
of water
6. Shake the base unit for a few moments and then empty it
completely over a sink or bucket. To obtain the best result,
we recommend that this operation is done twice
Important: before re-closing, make sure no water remains
in the boiler.
7. Replace and tighten up the boiler drainage plug with a
coin.
8. Insert and close the plastic cover by turning it to the
position.
Automatic clean warning
(depending on model)
Pilot light (3) will flash indicating that boiler must be rinsed. To
do this, follow the procedure described in the section above.
To reset “Calc‘n clean” pilot light and counter, switch the
station off twice, keeping it off during at least 30 seconds
each time
Rinsing the iron steam chamber (G)
This procedure helps to remove scale particles out of the
steam chamber.
Carry it out approximately every 2 weeks, if the water in your
area is very hard.
a) Ensure that the iron is cooled down.
b) Set the temperature selector (10) of the iron to the “min”
position.
c) Fill the tank with tap water.
d) Plug in the mains cable and set the main power switch (6)
to the “I” position.
e) Wait until the “steam ready” indicator lamp (7) lights up.
f) If the steam station has steam regulator (4), set it to the
maximum position (“10”).
g) Hold the iron over the sink or a container to collect the
water.
h) Press the steam release button (11) and gently shake
the iron. Boiling water and steam will come out, carrying
scale and or deposits that might be there. This could take
approximately 5 minutes.
i) Set the temperature selector (10) of the iron to the “max”
position, without pressing the steam release button (11).
The water in the steam chamber will start evaporating.
Wait until all the water inside the chamber has been
evaporated.
j) To clean the soleplate, immediately rub off any residue by
running the hot iron over dry cotton cloth.
