fabric protection
E
soleplate cover
(depending on the model)
The fabric-protection soleplate cover is used for
steam-ironing delicate garments at maximum
temperature without damaging them. Use of the
soleplate cover also does away with the need for
a cloth to prevent shine on dark materials.
It is advisable to first iron a small section on the
inside of the garment to see if it is suitable.
To attach the soleplate cover to the iron, place
the tip of the iron into the end of the soleplate
cover and pull the elastic strap over the lower
rear of the iron until it fits tightly. To release the
soleplate cover, pull the elastic strap and remove
the iron.
The fabric-protection soleplate cover may be
purchased from the customer service or specialist
shops:

Cleaning the Boiler
To extend the life of your steam generator and
to avoid any build up of scale, it is essential that
you rinse out the boiler after several hours of use
(approximately after 50 hours). If the water is
hard, increase the frequency.
Do not use descaling agents for rinsing out the
boiler, as they could damage it.
1. Check that the appliance is cold and
unplugged for more than 2 hours, and that the
water tank (1) is empty.
