Anti-scale filter
A special filter in the generator reservoir
softens the water and reduces the build-up of
lime deposits in the sole plate.
Filling with water
- The steam generator is equipped with a
special anti-scale filter and is not
therefore liable to the build-up of lime
deposits.
- Before the steam function can be used,
the water reservoir must be filled with
water as follows:
- Switch off the generator and remove
the plug from the wall outlet.
- Push the release button inside the grip
recess up and keep it depressed.
- Lift out the reservoir.
- Lift out the anti-scale filter.
- Fill the reservoir with clean tap water,
observing the 'Max' marking on the
reservoir.
- Replace the anti-scale filter.
- Place the water reservoir into the
generator, ensuring it locks into place.
- Once the water has been used up during
ironing, the sound of the pump increases
as air is pumped instead of water. This is
perfectly normal and no cause for
concern. Re-fill the reservoir as described
above.
Main indicator light - pump
When the steam jet button or the steam
button is pressed during ironing, the main
indicator lamp for the pump comes on,
showing that the pump is active.
If the steam jet button or the steam button is
pressed when all the water has been used up,
the temperature in the working pump
increases. Once the maximum operating
temperature for the pump has been reached,
the integral thermal safety cut-out switches
the pump off; this is indicated by the main
indicator lamp for the pump which goes out.
If this occurs, switch the generator off. Fill
the reservoir with clean water and replace
the reservoir in the steam generator,
