PREPARATION
Which water should I use?
Filling the water tank
• Your appliance was designed to operate using untreated
tap water. However, it is necessary to periodically clean
the steam chamber to remove any mineral deposits.
• Do not use pure demineralised or pure distilled water,
water from clothes dryers, scented or softened water, or
water containing additives (starch, perfume, aromatic
substances, softeners, etc.), rain water, filtered, bottled
or boiled water, water from refrigerators, batteries
or air conditioners, pure distilled water or rain water
as these may damage the iron. These types of water
contain organic waste, mineral elements that become
concentrated when heated and cause spitting, brown
staining, leaking or premature wear on your iron.
• Unplug the iron before filling it.
• Set the steam control to

• Lift the iron and, holding it at a slight incline, point
the soleplate up.
• Open the water tank cover.
• Fill the water tank to the mark “Max”.

If your water is very hard, mix 50% untreated tap water
with 50% distilled water (available in hardware stores).
Warning ! Do not fill your iron through the scale
collector opening. Do not remove the anti-calc
collector to fill the tank.
