OptimalTemp Technology

The OptimalTemp technology enables you to iron all types of ironable fabrics, without adjusting

the iron temperature or steam setting.

- Fabrics with these symbols are ironable, for example linen, cotton, polyester, silk, wool,

viscose and rayon (Fig. 4).

- Fabrics with this symbol are not ironable. These fabrics include synthetic fabrics such as Spandex

or elastane, Spandex-mixed fabrics and polyolens (e.g. polypropylene), but also prints on

garments (Fig. 5).

Recommended water to use: distilled or demineralised water

Your appliance has been designed to be used with tap water. If you live in an area with hard water,

fast scale build-up may occur. It is therefore recommended to use distilled or demineralised water to

prolong the lifetime of your appliance.

Do not add perfume, water from the tumble dryer, vinegar, magnetically treated water

(e.g. Aqua+), starch, descaling agents, ironing aids, chemically descaled water or other chemicals,

as they may cause water spitting, brown staining or damage to your appliance.

Ironing

Please read the quick start guide on the packaging carefully to start using your

appliance.

Note: Keep the steam trigger pressed continuously when you move the iron over the fabric while you iron.

IMPORTANT - Cleaning and maintenance

Smart Calc-Clean System

Your appliance has been designed with a Smart Calc-Clean system to ensure that descaling and

cleaning is done regularly. This helps to maintain a strong steam performance and avoids dirt and

stains coming out of the soleplate over time. To ensure that the cleaning process is performed, the

steam generator gives regular reminders. Besides that, a second defence step to protect the steam

generator from scale is integrated: the steam function gets disabled if descaling is not done after

1 hour steam ironing once the reminder came up. After descaling is done, the steam function will be

restored. This takes place regardless of the type of water used.
