Filling the water tank
NOTE
Use only tap water or distilled water.
If the mains water in your location is rated as hard, it is recommended that you
mix the mains water with some distilled water. Otherwise limescale deposits
can adversely affect the appliance functions.
Mix the tap water with distilled water as described in the table below:
Water hardness
Ratio of distilled water to
tap water
very soft/soft -
medium 1:1
hard 2:1
very hard 3:1
Do not add water with any additives (such as starch, perfume, softeners or
other chemicals) to the water tank 0. These could damage the appliance as
residues can form in the steam chamber. The residues could contaminate the
clothing if they come out of the steam outlets.
♦ Pull the water tank 0 by the grip 9 out of the base station q.
♦ Fill the water tank 0 with tap water via the filler opening r.
Do not fill above the MAX marking in the water tank 0.
♦ Push the water tank 0 back into the base station q until it clicks into place.
NOTE
► Do not tip or swivel the appliance when the water tank 0 is full.
Otherwise, water could drip from the filler opening r.
Before first use
♦ Clean the sole of the iron 6 using a slightly moist cloth.
♦ To remove any production residues, iron several times over an old, clean
cloth. Press the steam button 5 a few times.
