Frequently Asked Questions - ECVD 2001 ESSENTIELB

Why does a slight odor and smoke come out during first use?

This is normal. Some parts were greased at the factory. This phenomenon disappears quickly.

Dirt particles come out of the soleplate, what to do?

At first, it's normal. Run the iron over an old cloth while pressing the steam trigger. If it persists, clean the soleplate or perform a self-cleaning.

Why do water drops come out of the soleplate?

The soleplate is not hot enough. Make sure the thermostat is in the steam activation zone (40°-230°). Hold the iron over a cloth and press the trigger until steam is produced.

How to lock the iron for transport?

Place the iron on the iron rest, make sure the locking device is unlocked, then press the locking device. To unlock, press the unlock button.

How to use vertical steaming?

Hang the garment on a hanger, gently stretch the fabric, then press the steam trigger intermittently in an upward motion. Keep the iron at a distance depending on the fabric. Beware of burns.

What water to use in the steam station?

Use 50% tap water and 50% demineralized water. Never use only demineralized water. Do not add any chemicals.

How to perform self-cleaning?

Fill the tank, set the thermostat to MAX, hold the iron horizontally over a heat-resistant container. Press the self-cleaning button for 2 seconds. A beep sounds, and intense steam is emitted for 2 minutes. Beware of burns.

Why does the soleplate get dirty during use?

Residues of detergent or fabric softener may settle. Clean the soleplate with a damp cloth. Also check the recommended ironing temperature.

What to do if water leaks from the body of the station?

This may indicate internal scaling. First perform a self-cleaning. If the problem persists, contact after-sales service.

How to store the steam station after use?

Set the thermostat to MIN, turn off the station by holding the on/off button for 2 seconds, unplug, lock the iron on the base, let it cool, then wrap the cords around the station.

Iron thermostat indicator light

When the iron heats up, the thermostat indicator light is on. The light goes out again when the iron reaches the selected temperature. The indicator light switches on and off during use; it regulates the selected temperature. This is normal.

Self-cleaning

To extend the life of your steam generator iron and limit the formation of limescale, you must undertake the self-cleaning of the device when the symbol appears.

Please refer to the "Self-cleaning" paragraph in the "CLEANING" section at the end of the manual.

Steam output selection

When the indicator light stops flashing, press the steam output adjustment button to select the desired output:

- Low/Eco:

• High:

before initial use

1. Before first use, carefully remove the protective films and all the bracing elements as well as the sticker from the sole plate.
2. Place the steam generator iron on a flat and stable surface.
3. Place the iron on its iron rest.
4. Fully unwind the AC power cord and steam cord.
5. Plug the power cord into a mains outlet; a beep is heard.
6. Switch on the appliance and set the iron thermostat knob to the "MAX" position; heat the iron for a few minutes in order to remove any manufacturing residue from the sole plate.

NOTES:

• When you switch on the steam generator iron, you may hear a pumping noise. This is normal. It shows that water is being pumped through the system.
• When the sole plate is heating up, steam may automatically escape from it. This is normal.

use

Filling the water tank

• Never immerse the steam generator iron in water or other liquids.
• Never add perfume, vinegar, starch, descaler or other products to the tank.

Fill the tank when using the appliance for the first time and when empty.

To do this, press the tank release button while pushing the tank against the generator, until you hear a "click".

Then, remove the tank by grabbing its handle.

What water should I use for ironing?

We recommend a half-and-half mixture of tap water and demineralised water. The proportion of demineralised water should be increased in hard water areas.

Never use demineralised water on its own as it could seriously damage your appliance.

Fill the tank with tap water via the filler hole by placing it under a tap.

Warning! Do not overfi ll beyond the "MAX" level mark. Tank capacity: 1.8 litres.

Next, put the tank back in place and make sure it is in the correct position.

Iron temperature adjustment

Set the recommended ironing temperature by turning the thermostat knob on the iron.

Check the washing labels on the clothes and follow the manufacturer's ironing instructions, often indicated by symbols similar to the ones below:

Temperature setting

• Acetate
  • Elastane
• Polyamide
• Polypropylene
• Polyester

• Nylon
• Polyester
• Cellulose
• Silk
  • Viscose
  • Wool

• Cotton

• Linen

• Sort the items to be ironed according to the type of fabric. This will enable you to reduce the frequency of temperature settings for different garments. The iron heats up quickly and cools down more slowly. That's why we advise you to start by ironing the most delicate fabrics.

• Test a small area on the back or inside of the garment if you are unsure of the type of fabric. Start with a low temperature and gradually increase it.
• Apply lighter pressure to heat-sensitive fabrics and always keep the iron moving.
• To better iron delicate fabrics such as silk, wool, velvet, etc. and prevent gloss marks, use a damp cloth.
• Never iron zip fasteners, buttons or transfers; only iron around them.
• If the fabric is made of different fibres, always select the temperature required by the most delicate fibre, i.e. the lowest temperature. If, for example, the fabric is composed of 60% polyester and 40% cotton, it must be ironed at the temperature indicated for polyester, i.e.: “●”.
• The symbol 📄 on the washing label means that the garment should not be ironed.

Never touch the iron sole plate when the iron is hot: risk of burns!

Empty the water tank AFTER EACH USE.

Cleaning the steam generator

If necessary, clean the plastic parts of the steam generator iron using a soft, slightly damp cloth.

Self-cleaning

To extend the life of your steam generator iron and limit the formation of limescale, you must undertake self-cleaning when the 📋 indicator light comes on.

Note: This operation can be carried out more frequently, without waiting for the indicator light to come on. For example, if your water has a high limescale content or if you notice traces of limescale on the iron.

1. Fill the tank.
2. Stand above a heat-resistant container of at least 1 litre.
3. Set the thermostat to the "MAX" position.
4. Hold the iron horizontally by placing it above the container, so that any droplets can fall inside it.
5. Press the 📁 button for 2 seconds; it starts flashing. Once you hear a beep, self-cleaning is underway: keep holding the iron horizontally, making sure the steam jets are not pointed at yourself or anyone else, as intense steam will be emitted: you may burn yourself. The 🌐 indicator light flashes throughout the self-cleaning process.
6. After 2 minutes, self-cleaning is complete.
7. Empty the water from the tank.

frequently asked questions

Why does the iron smoke and produce a slight odour when it is used for the first time?

This is completely normal. Certain parts of the iron are lightly greased at the factory. It will stop very quickly.

Why are dirt particles coming out of my new iron's sole plate?

This happens with new irons and is quite normal. These particles are not dangerous and will stop appearing after a few uses. Hold the iron over an old cloth and press the steam release button when you start using your machine to avoid staining your clothes.

Why are dirt particles coming out of the iron when I'm ironing?

Impurities and chemical particles found in water may have been deposited on the sole plate. Clean the sole plate. If necessary, carry out the self-cleaning of the generator.

Drops of water flow from the sole plate. Why?

The iron soleplate is not hot enough to produce steam. This is normal. Make sure the button is in the steam activation area. Hold the iron over an old cloth and press the steam release button. The cloth absorbs the drops of water. After several seconds, the steam emission returns to normal.

Why does the sole plate get dirty?

Impurities and chemicals present in the water or on your clothes may have been deposited on the sole plate. These residues can come, for example, from your detergent or fabric softener. Clean the sole plate with a damp cloth.

Or, you may have set the temperature too high. Clean the sole plate with a damp cloth. Select the recommended ironing temperature.

What should I do if water is leaking from the steam generator iron's body?

There may be a limescale build-up inside your product or abrasive products may have been inserted into the appliance. If so, this can cause abnormal leakage. First of all, perform the self-cleaning procedure. If this does not solve the problem, contact your store's customer service department.

Is it normal that the steam generator iron heats up when in use?

Don't put your hands on areas that display the ⚠ symbol!

While other parts of the appliance may be slightly warm, they are not too hot to touch. If you feel the steam generator iron is excessively hot, unplug the appliance from the mains, let it cool down on a heat-resistant surface and contact your store's customer service department.
