- If the electrical cord becomes damaged, it must be immediately replaced by an Approved Service Centre to avoid any danger.
- The appliance should not be used if it has fallen, if it has obvious damage, if it leaks or has functional anomalies.
- Never dismantle your appliance: have it inspected by an Approved Service Centre, so as to avoid any danger.
- Never immerse your iron in water !
- Do not unplug your appliance by pulling on the cord. Always unplug your appliance: before filling or rinsing the reservoir, before cleaning it, after each use.
- Never leave the appliance unattended when it is connected to a power source; if it has not cooled down for approximately 1 hour.
- Your appliance gives off steam, which may cause burns, especially when you are ironing on a corner of your ironing board. Never direct the steam towards people or animals.
- Your iron should be used and placed on a stable surface.
- When you put your iron onto its iron rest, make sure that the surface on which you put it is stable.

Environment protection first
- Your appliance contains valuable materials which can be recovered or recycled. Leave it at a local civic waste collection point.
Keep these instructions
BEFORE USE
- Remove the soleplate sticker carefully and completely, or remove the transparent soleplate protector slowly.
STARTING UP
- When using the iron for the first time, plug it into the main electricity supply, set the temperature control to max., do not add any water, stand the iron on its heel and allow it to heat up in the vertical position for 2 minutes.
- A small amount of smoke or smell may be generated. This is perfectly normal and will disappear after a short period of use.
RECOMMENDATIONS
What water may be used ?
- Your iron has been designed to operate using untreated tap water. If in doubt, check with your local water authority. However, if your water is very hard, you can mix 50% untreated tap water with 50%distilled or demineralized water.
IMPORTANT
Heat concentrates the elements contained in water during evaporation. The
types of water listed below contain organic waste or mineral elements that can
cause spitting, brown staining or the premature wear of the appliance: water
from clothes dryers, scented or softened water, water from refrigerators,
batteries or air conditioners, pure distilled or demineralised water or rain
water should not be used in your iron. Also do not use boiled, filtered or
bottled water.
When ironing
The iron takes longer to cool down than to heat up. We recommend that you start with fabrics to be ironed at a low temperature. For mixed fabrics set the temperature for the most delicate fabric.
TIP
- Always spray starch onto the reverse side of the fabric to be ironed.
Automatic 3-position cut-out (depending on model)
- If, although switched on, the appliance is not moved, it will automatically switch off and the auto off light will blink after the following intervals :
- After 30 sec., if the iron is left placed down on the soleplate or lying on its side .
- After 8 mins., if the iron is left standing on its heel.
- To switch the iron back on, move the iron gently.
After ironing
IMPORTANT
- Do not wind the cord around the hot soleplate. Never store your iron placed down on the soleplate.
- Do not use descaling agents, as these damage the lining of the steam chamber and so may impair the steam function.
- TIP Use the Self Clean function approx. every 2 weeks. If the water is very hard, clean the iron weekly.
