11.1. Cleaning the Boiler
See the leaflet sides
Do not use descaling agents for rinsing out the
boiler, as they could damage it.
1 Fix the iron to the stand by inserting the tip of
the iron into the front slot and moving the lock
system (3) against the heel of the iron. Place
your appliance on the edge of your kitchen
sink.
2 Unscrew the scale collector (12) and take it
out.
3 To wash the scale collector, place it under the
water tap and wash it up until calc residues
are removed. Squeeze it as indicated in the
picture a).
To obtain the best result, you may immerse
the scale collector for approximately 30
minutes in tap water (250 ml) mixed with
a measure (25 ml) of descaling fluid, as
indicated in the picture b). Then, rinse it again
with water (very important!).
The descaling fluid can be obtained from our
Aftersales Service or Specialist outlets:

4 Holding your steam generator in upside down
position, and using a jug, fill the boiler (in the
base unit) with 1/4 litre of water.
5 Shake the base unit for a few moments and
then empty it completely over a sink or bucket.
To obtain the best result, we recommend that
this operation is performed twice.
Important: before re-closing, make sure no
water remains in the boiler.
6 Replace and tighten up the scale collector.

4 Wait until the indicator light (8) stops flashing
and remains lit continuously. Two beeps will
be heard at the same time.
5 Hold the iron over the sink or a container to
collect the water.
6 Press the steam release button (14) and
gently shake the iron. Boiling water and
steam will be released, carrying scale and/or
deposits that might be inside.
After approximately one minute, the "Calc"
automatic clean warning indicator light (4) will
go off.
Keep on shaking the iron gently for five
minutes while the steam release button is
pressed, so that water and steam clean the
chamber completely.
7 Without pressing the steam release button
(14), turn the programme selector (9) and
choose "Linen / max" programme. The water
in the steam chamber will start evaporating.
8 Wait until all the water inside the chamber
has been evaporated. Then, you can set the
power button (10) to the "O" position.
9 To clean the soleplate, immediately rub off
any residue by running the hot iron over a wet
cotton cloth.
12. Cleaning & Maintenance
See the leaflet sides
E
Attention! Risk of burns!
Always unplug the appliance from the
mains supply before carrying out any
cleaning or maintenance operation on it.
1. After ironing, pull out the plug and allow the
appliance to cool down before cleaning.
2. Wipe the housing, handle and iron body with a
damp cotton cloth.
3. If the soleplate is soiled with dirt or scale,
clean it with a damp cotton cloth.
4. If the cloth is synthetic, it may melt due to the
high temperature on the soleplate. Switch off
the steam and rub off any residue immediately
with a thickly folded, damp cotton cloth.
5. Never use abrasive products or solvents. To
keep the soleplate smooth, you should avoid
hard contact with metal objects. Never use
a scouring pad, or chemicals to clean the
soleplate.
