operation (Calc’n’Clean).
When water is already present in the steam generator during regular
use, heat up time to reach the operating temperature will be faster.

tank” indicator (6) will light when the water tank is empty.

vapors and odors, along with white particles on
the soleplate, this is normal and it will stop after a
few minutes

normal, indicating that water is being pumped to
the steam tank.
