USING THE SELF-CLEANING FEATURE
You should use the Self-Cleaning feature to maintain the optimal performance of
your iron. The Self Cleaning feature will clean the water reservoir and steam vents of
accumulated minerals, dust and lint.
To use the Self-Cleaning feature:
1. Move the Steam Dial/Buttons (for model GCSTTS7014 only) back and forth several
times to remove debris and minerals from the steam valve. This keeps water flowing
into the steam chamber.
2. Fill the water reservoir with tap water to the "MAX" line.
3. Plug in the iron and move the fabric select dial/press the button (for model
GCSTTS7014 only) to linen position "Lin", and allow the iron to heat until the wait/
ready light turns green.
4. Unplug the iron.
5. Hold the iron over a sink in a horizontal position.
WARNING: Be careful not to touch the iron's hot surfaces.
6. Press the Self-Clean button and hold. Water will begin dripping from the steam vents.
Slowly rock the iron side-to-side and front to back for 30 seconds. When rocking the
iron, dip the nose of the iron slightly below the rear to make certain the water
circulates completely.
7. Turn the iron upside down and allow the remaining water to flow out of the fill hole.
8. Dry the soleplate with a towel.
9. Plug in the iron and turn the Fabric Select Dial/press the Button (for model
GCSTTS7014 only) to the linen position "Lin". Let the iron heat until the wait light
turns green and dry out the iron completely.
10. Turn the fabric select dial/press the button (for model GCSTTS7014 only) to the off
position "O". The light will go out, indicating that the iron has turned itself off. Unplug
the iron and allow it to cool before storing.
