Energy saving - ECO mode
By using the ECO mode (reduced amount of steam), you can save energy without compromising
on the ironing result..
Note: For the shortest ironing time, we advise you to use the 'OptimalTemp' mode.
1
Press the ECO button when the appliance is switched on (Fig. 4).

To go back to the 'OptimalTemp' mode, press the ECO button again.
Safety auto-off mode (speciic types only)
To save energy, the steam generator switches off automatically when it has not been used for
10 minutes. The light in the on/off button lashes.
To reactivate the steam generator, press the on/off button.
IMPORTANT - cleaning and maintenance
Descaling the appliance
When DE-CALC light is lashing, perform the descaling procedure.This helps to prolong the lifetime
of the appliance and optimise the ironing performance.
If your water is very hard, increase the descaling frequency.
To avoid any risk of burns, make sure the appliance has been unplugged for at least 2 hours and
has completely cooled.
Tip: When you perform the descaling procedure, place the appliance on the edge of the table top or near
the sink. Water may low out of the appliance when the EASY DE-CALC knob is opened.
1
Hold a cup under the EASY DE-CALC knob and turn the knob anti-clockwise. (Fig. 5)
Remove the EASY DE-CALC knob and let the water with scale particles low into the cup (Fig. 6).

When no more water comes out of the appliance, reinsert the EASY DE-CALC knob and
tighten it. (Fig. 7)
Descaling the soleplate
If you do not descale your appliance regularly, you may see brown stains coming out of the soleplate
due to scale particles. Descale the soleplate by following the procedure below. We advise you to
repeat the procedure twice for better results.

Empty the water tank through the illing door. Tilt the appliance and remove the EASY

DE-CALC knob. Pour 500ml distilled water into the DE-CALC opening and tighten the
EASY DE-CALC knob. (Fig. 8)
3
Switch on the appliance and wait for 5 minutes.
4
Keep the steam trigger pressed continuously while you iron a piece of thick cloth in a
back-and-forth motion for 3 minutes. (Fig. 9)
Hot, dirty water comes out of the soleplate.
5
Stop cleaning when no more water comes out of the soleplate or when steam starts coming
out of the soleplate.

Unplug the steam generator and let it cool down for at least 2 hours. Remove the EASY
DE-CALC knob and let the remaining water low out. Tighten the EASY DE-CALC knob.
