ASSEMBLING AND
PREPARING FOR USE
SETTING UP THE STEAM-GENERATOR
WATER CHAMBER
Always make sure that the appliance
is disconnected from the power mains
before you perform any setting-up or
maintenance operations.
To open the water chamber, twist the cap
counterclockwise to unscrew (fig. 1).
Fill the chamber with no more than 1.5 litres of
tap water (a higher level could impair the
operation of the machine) (fig. 2).
Reposition the cap and tighten until securely
locked.
SAFETY CAP
Your machine is equipped with a safety cap
that will turn idly as long as the chamber is
pressurized only to engage and unscrew as
soon as the pressure abates.
To open the steam generator, proceed as fol-
lows:
- Never open the cap until the wa-
ter is completely finished.
- Discharge all steam using the switch on
the handgrip or the steam delivery button
on the iron.
- Turn the appliance off using the ON/OFF
switch and unplug from the mains socket.
- Wait a few minutes (at least 15).
- Place a cloth over the tank cap when
opening. Open the cap slowly and care-
fully to allow residual steam to escape.
FITTING CLEANING TOOLS ONTO THE
MACHINE
To fit the flexible hose onto the machine (fig. 3):
• insert the flexible hose into its coupling
pressing in until it clicks into place;
• clamp with slight pressure the flap into its
housing.
• make sure the hose is firmly in place by
trying to remove it without pressing the
locking button.
