What water may be used?
• Tap water:
Your appliance has been designed to function using untreated tap water. If your
water is very hard, we recommend you use a mix of 50% untreated tap water
19c
and 50% distilled water available in most shops.
• Types of water not to use:
Heat concentrates the elements contained in water during evaporation. The
types of water listed below may contain organic waste, 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. These types of water should not be used in your steam station. Also only
use distilled water as advised above.
Recommendations: • Set the soleplate temparature control dial and the steam output control dial (located on
the control panel) to the MAX position.

Power Zone Function (according to model)
fig. 6
• Your appliance includes the Power Zone function: concentrated steam shot at the tip of the soleplate, to be used in
particular to target stubborn creases, detailing and zones that are difficult to access.
• To use this function, press the Power Zone function on top of the iron as often as necessary
Maintenance and cleaning
Cleaning your steam station
• Do not use detergent or descaling products for cleaning the base-unit.
• Never hold the iron or the base unit under the tap.
• Empty and rinse the removable water tank.
fig. 9
• Clean the plastic parts of the appliance occasionally with a soft cloth.
Easy descaling of your steam station:
Do not use any To extend the life of your steam station and avoid scale on your ironing, your steam station
descaling substances is equipped with a built-in scale collector. In geographies with hard water, a scale of
(vinegar, industrial calcium may build up inside the boiler. This can effect preformance of the steam station
descaling products, etc.) and may deposit white substances on garments. The valve, located in the tank,
when rinsing automatically removes the scale that forms inside.

¿Qué agua se debe utilizar?
Millville, NJ 08332
• Agua del grifo:
El aparato está diseñado para funcionar con agua del grifo. Si el agua de su hogar
es demasiado calcárea, mezcle un 50% de agua del grifo con un 50% de agua
800-769-3682
embotellada disponible en la mayoría de las tiendas.
En algunas regiones de la costa, el porcentaje de sal en el agua puede ser elevado.
En ese caso, utilice únicamente agua embotellada.
• Descalcificador:
Hay distintos tipos de descalcificadores y el agua de la mayoría de ellos puede
utilizarse en el generador. Sin embargo, algunos descalcificadores, y concretamente
los que emplean productos químicos como la sal, pueden provocar derrames
blancos u oscuros; manchas marrones. Si tiene este tipo de problema, le
recomendamos que pruebe a utilizar agua potable o agua embotellada.
Cuando haya cambiado el agua, será necesario utilizar varias veces la plancha para
resolver el problema. Le recomendamos que pruebe la función de vapor por primera
vez sobre un trapo usado que pueda tirar, para evitar dañar sus prendas de ropa.
• The appliance must be used and placed on a flat,
stable, heat-resistant surface. When you place the iron
on the iron rest, make sure that the surface on which
you place it is stable. For best results use a mesh top
ironing board (vs. a perforated top ironing board) to
prevent water spots on the clothes and to avoid steam
venting sideways.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been given supervision
or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they
do not play with the appliance.
• Never leave the appliance unattended:
- when it is plugged in,
- until it has cooled down (around 1 hour).
• The soleplate and the iron rest on the base unit can
become very hot and cause burns: never touch these
parts.
Never touch the electric cords with the soleplate of the
iron.
• Your appliance gives off steam which can cause burns.
Handle your iron carefully, particularly when using the
vertical steam function. Never direct the steam
towards persons or animals.
• Before unscrewing the scale collecting valve cap,
wait until the base is cold (unplugged for more than
2 hours).
• If you lose or damage the scale collecting valve cap,
please contact Consumer Services.
• Never immerse your steam station in water or any
other liquid. Never hold it under the water tap.
• The appliance must not be used if it has fallen to the
floor, shows evidence of damage, leaks or fails to
function correctly. Never dismantle your appliance.
To avoid any danger, have it inspected in an approved
service centre.

• Place the steam station on a stable, horizontal and heat-resistant surface.
• Ensure that your station generator is unplugged and that the soleplate and the iron
rest have cooled down.
• Open the water tank filler cover - fig.4.
• Pour in untreated tap water up to the max mark (57oz)
• Close the water tank filler cover.
Switch on the steam station
• Completely unwind the power cord and the steam cord from its storage space.
• Lower the retaining hoop (depending on model) to unlock the safety catch
• Plug your steam station.
• Press on the on / off switch. The green light (located on the control panel)
flashes and the boiler heats up - fig.5.
When the green "steam ready" light stops flashing (after 2 minutes
approximately), the appliance is ready.
• When starting, and regularly while it is being used, your steam station's electric
pump injects water into the boiler. It makes a noise but this is quite normal.
You may also hear a clicking noise which is the steam valve opening. Again this
is normal.
Operating the control panel
• Green light flashes: the boiler heats up - fig.5.
• Green light on: the steam is ready.
• "Water tank empty" red warning light is flashing: the water tank is empty
• The orange "anti-calc" indicator flashes - fig.13: you need to rinse the scale collector.
Use
Steam ironing
• Place the soleplate's temperature control dial according to the type of fabric to be
ironed (see table below).
• The thermostat light comes on - fig.9. Be careful! The steam station is ready when
the thermostat light goes out and when the green "steam ready" light stays on.
• Adjust the steam output control dial (located on the control panel).
• When the iron is in use, the soleplate thermostat light on the iron comes on and goes
off according to the soleplate temperature requirement without this having any
effect on the use of the appliance.
• To obtain steam, press on the steam control trigger under the iron handle and keep
it pressed - fig.6. The steam will stop when you release the trigger.
• If using starch when ironing, always spray starch onto the reverse side of the fabric
to be ironed.

ECO MODE:
Your steam station iron has an ECO mode function which uses less power whilst still guaranteeing a sufficient steam flow for
you to iron your garments properly. In order to use this function, once the soleplate temperature thermostat has been
correctly set (see table above), position the steam flow setting on the ECO segment

best results.
