Drip stop
This iron is equipped with a drip-stop function: the iron automatically
stops producing steam when the temperature is too low to prevent
water from dripping out of the soleplate.When this happens you may
hear a sound.

ironing (2 to MAX). Make sure that the steam setting you
select is suitable for the ironing temperature selected (see
'Steam ironing' in chapter 'Using the appliance').
The iron will start steaming as soon as the set temperature has been
reached.

Cleaning and maintenance

After ironing
1 Remove the mains plug from the wall socket and let the iron
cool down.
2 Wipe flakes and any other deposits off the soleplate with a
damp cloth and a non-abrasive (liquid) cleaning agent.
To keep the soleplate smooth, you should avoid hard contact with
metal objects. Never use a scouring pad, vinegar or other chemicals to
clean the soleplate.
