Failure to comply with the above-mentioned regulations leads to the loss of
guarantee.
Anti-calc system
A special resin filter inside the water reservoir softens the water and
prevents scale build-up in the plate. The resin filter is permanent and does
not need replacing. The “anti-calc” cartridge has been designed to reduce the
build-up of scale produced during steam ironing, helping to extend the useful
life of your iron. Nevertheless, the “anti-calc” cartridge cannot remove all
of the scale that is produced naturally over time. Please note : Do not
use chemical additives, scented substances or decalcifies. Failure to comply
with the above-mentioned regulation leads to the loss of guarantee.
Auto shut-off
