Storing
Set the steam regulator to the
position
Cleaning
lf the iron is only slightly soiled, pull
out the plug and allow the soleplate to
cool down. Wipe the housing and the
soleplate with a damp cloth only.
lf synthetic cloth melts due to too high
temperature on the soleplate, switch
off the steam and rub off the residue
immediately with a thickly folded, dry
cotton cloth.
To keep the soleplate smooth, you
should avoid hard contact with metal
objects. Never use a scouring pad, or
chemicals to clean the soleplate.
Never decalcify the tank or treat it with
detergents or solvents: otherwise the
iron will drip water whilst steaming!

(9) 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
(10)
the lowest ironing temperature.
Check the recommended ironing
temperature in the label on the
garment.
(11)
• Regulate the steam according to
the selected ironing temperature,
following the instructions in this ma-
nual.
• Only use steam if necessary. If
possible, use the spray function
instead.
• 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.
• Stand the
pauses. Resting it horizontally with
the steam regulator on generates
wasted steam.
