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

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

Fill the water tank before first use and as soon as the ‘water tank empty’ 

light flashes. 

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

aids or other chemicals in the water tank.

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

equal amount of distilled water.
Note: Do not tilt or shake the steam generator when the water tank is full, 

otherwise water may spill out of the filling hole.
