IMPORTANT Do not wind the cord around the hot soleplate. Never store your iron placed down
on the soleplate (fig 22/23).
IMPORTANT Unplug and allow the iron to fully cool down before maintenance and cleaning.
IMPORTANT Do not use descaling agents, as these damage the lining of the steam chamber
and so may impair the steam function.
TIP Use the Self Clean function approx. every 2 weeks. If the water is very hard, clean the iron
weekly.
IMPORTANT Do not use sharp or abrasive cleaning agents or objects to clean soleplate and
other parts of the iron. If the appliance has been standing unused for long periods, use the Self
Clean function (see § 14).
