1 • What water to use ?
Your iron has been designed to operate using
untreated tap water. However, it is necessary
to operate the Self-Clean function regularly in
order to eliminate hard water deposits from
the steam chamber.
If your water is very hard (check with your
local water authority) it is possible to mix tap
water with store-bought distilled or
demineralised water in the following
proportions : 50% untreated tap water, 50%
distilled or demineralised water.
Ironing Boards
Due to the powerful steam output, a mesh
type ironing board must be used to allow any
excess steam to escape and to avoid steam
venting sideways.
2 • Preparing your steam
generator
Place your steam generator on a flat, stable,
heat-resistant surface.
Unscrew the boiler cap (A).
Take a jug and fill it with a maximum of one
litre of water then pour the water into the tank,
taking care not to let it spill over (B).
Replace the boiler cap, screwing on firmly, but
not over tight (C).
Unwind the electric cord completely and take
the steam cord out of its housing.Connect
your generator to an earthed socket (D).
If this occurs, remove the excess water.
Before filling it, check that your appliance is
unplugged and cold.
These types of water should NOT be used in
your steam generator. Also only use distilled
or demineralised water as advised above.
Types of water not to use: Heat concentrates
the elements contained in water during
evaporation. The types of water listed below
may contain organic waster, mineral or
chemical elements that can cause spitting,
brown staining or premature wear of the
appliance: water from clothes dryers,
scented or softened water, water from
refrigerators, batteries, air conditioners, rain
water, boiled, filtered or bottled water.
Your steam generator is equipped with the Water Control function which keeps track of the water
level in the tank during ironing and warns you when it is almost empty.
The lights gradually switch off when the water level drops in the tank:
- full tank
: all lights are on
- tank half full
: 3 lights are on
- tank almost empty
: the last light blinks, you can still iron one item.
