∙ To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not
clean the appliance with water and do
not immerse it in water.

a dry fuzz-free cloth.
∙ Starch, fat and other deposits on the
soleplate may be removed with a
woollen cloth soaked in a vinegar-water
solution.
∙ Do not use abrasives or harsh cleaning
solutions.
∙ Do not put vinegar or other descalers
into the water reservoir.

insert the plug into the wall socket.

maximum.

ironing’ position.
∙ Wait until the indicator light goes out.
∙ Remove the plug from the wall socket.
∙ Hold the iron horizontally over a sink.
∙ Turn the steam control button to its
CLEAN position and press it.
∙ With the steam control button
depressed, swing the iron lightly to and
fro until no more steam or hot water is
emitted.
∙ Pour out any remaining water from the
reservoir.
∙ Allow the soleplate to cool down before
cleaning it with a damp, lint-free cloth.
Storage

from the wall socket and let the unit cool
down completely.
