5. Auto switch off

For your safety and to save energy, the appliance switches
off automatically when it has not been used for 8 minutes.
Three beeps will be heard, and all indicator lights (1, 2, 3,
4) will flash.
1 To switch the steam station back on, press the steam
release button (14) again.

1. Descaling process

Important: to keep your appliance in good condition
for a long time, you should carry out the descaling
process after a period of use. The "Calc'nClean"
indicator light (2) will flash and three beeps will be
heard, indicating that the process should be
performed. You may continue ironing, but before the
next use, while the appliance is cold, a descaling
process should be performed.
Descaling the boiler
1 Take special care to ensure that the appliance is cold
and unplugged.
2 Empty the water tank.
3 Remove the iron from the pad (12).
4 Unscrew and remove the boiler cap (8) and take it out.
Empty the boiler completely.
5 Fill the boiler with approximately 300 ml of tap water.
Close the boiler cap and shake the base unit for a few
moments. Then, empty it completely.
Important: To obtain the best result, we recommend
that this operation be performed twice.
Before re-closing, make sure no water remains in the
boiler.
6 If your appliance is equipped with scale collector
(8*), it must be washed (see the "Descaling the scale
collector" section).
7 Replace and tighten up the cap.
