MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Avoid scratching the iron; do not pass it over
hard surfaces. Traces of starch or sprays can
be removed from the base with damp cotton
wool or a non abrasive cleaning product.
The boiler tank is made of stainless steel. Due
to the characteristics of this material less lime
scale is produced. It is advisable to rinse the
boiler out regularly with clean water so as
to remove any traces of lime, following the
appliance's safety rules; being unplugged
and cold.
The outer surface of both the iron and the
boiler can be cleaned down with a damp
cloth, without the use of abrasive agents or
solvents.
REPAIRS
Should the cable and/or the appliance be-
come defective do not hesitate in taking it to
