Cleaning & maintenance
attention! risk of burns!
always unplug the appliance from the mains
supply before carrying out any cleaning or
maintenance operation on it.

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 (19). Switch
off the steam and rub off any residue
immediately with a thickly folded, dry cotton
cloth.
5. Never use abrasive products or solvents. To
keep the soleplate (19) smooth, you should
avoid hard contact with metal objects. Never
use a scouring pad, or chemicals to clean the

Tips to help you
save energy
Steam production consumes the most energy. To
help minimise the energy used, follow the advice
below:
• Start by ironing the fabrics that require the
lowest ironing temperature.
Check the recommended ironing temperature
in the label on the garment.
• Regulate the steam according to the selected
ironing temperature, following the instructions
in this manual.
• Try to Iron the fabrics while they are still damp
and reduce the steam setting. Steam will be
generated from the fabrics rather than the iron.
If you tumble dry your fabrics before ironing
them, set the tumble drier on the 'iron dry'
programme.
• If the fabrics are damp enough, turn off the
steam regulator completely.
