2. Cleaning the appliance
Regularly clean your appliance for properly maintenance.
Attention! Burn risk!
1
If the appliance is only slightly soiled, wipe it with a
damp cotton cloth only, and then dry it.
2
To keep the soleplate smooth, you should avoid
contact with hard metal objects. Never use a scouring
pad, or chemicals to clean the soleplate.
1
Unplug the appliance and let it cool down. Empty the
water tank (9).
2
Place the iron on the steam station, standing on the
pad (12).
If your steam station is equipped with iron lock system
(13*), fix the iron to it. First insert the heel and then
block the tip moving the lock system against the iron.
3
Store the steam hose (5) and the mains cable (6) on
the storage holder (7).
Possible causes
1. During first use: certain
components on the
appliance have been lightly
greased at the factory and
may produce a small
amount of smoke when
initially heated.
2. During subsequent use: the
soleplate may be soiled.
Solution
1. This is completely normal and
will stop after a short while.
2. Clean the soleplate according
to the cleaning instructions in
this manual.
