Before first use 

Note: The iron may give off some smoke when you use it for the first time. This 

is normal and stops after a short while.

Note: Some particles may come out of the soleplate when you use the iron for 

the first time. This is normal; the particles are harmless and stop coming out of 

the iron after a short while.

Note: When you switch on the appliance, the steam generator may produce a 

pumping sound. This is normal; the sound tells you that water is pumped into 

the steam generator. 

  1 

 Remove any sticker or protective foil from the soleplate and clean 

the soleplate with a soft cloth.

Preparing for use

 Place the steam generator on a stable and level surface, e.g. on the 

hard part of the ironing board or on a table.

Filling the detachable water tank

You can fill the water tank at any time during use. 

Do not put hot water, perfume, vinegar, starch, descaling agents, ironing 

aids or other chemicals in the water tank.

filling opening when you reinsert the water tank.

  1

  2

Note: If the tap water in your area is very hard, we advise you to mix it with an 

equal amount of distilled water.

  3 

 Slide the water tank firmly back into the steam generator (‘click’).

Note: If the water tank is not properly placed, the iron does not produce any 

steam.
