AFTER USE
10 • Emptying
Unplug the iron (fig.4), pour away remaining water (fig.19) and set steam control to
.
Open and close the steam control several times (fig.16) to prevent the valve hole
into the steam chamber from scaling or blocking up.
11 • Storing
Allow the appliance to cool down before storing the iron standing on its heel
(fig.20).
IMPORT NT Do not wind the cord around the hot soleplate. Never store your iron placed down
on the soleplate (fig. 21/22).
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
important Unplug and allow the iron to fully cool down before maintenance and cleaning.
12 • Anti-scale system
Your iron contains an anti-scale cartridge to reduce scale deposits. This
considerably prolongs the operational life of your iron.
The anti-scale cartridge is an integral part of the water tank and does not need to
be replaced.
IMPORT NT Do not use descaling agents, as these damage the lining of the steam chamber
and so may impair the steam function.
13 • Self Clean function
(prolongs the life of the iron)
The Self Clean function flushes dirt and scale particles out of the steam chamber.
Fill the water tank with untreated tap water up to the max mark and heat the iron to
the ••• temperature. Unplug the iron and hold it over a sink horizontally. Press the
Self Clean button 1 minute and shake the iron gently (fig.5a-5b): steam will now
begin to build up. After a few seconds water will emerge from the soleplate, rinsing
dirt and scale particles out of the steam chamber.
Plug in the iron and allow the iron to heat up again. Wait until the remaining water
has evaporated. Unplug from the mains and allow the iron to fully cool down.
When cool, the soleplate can be wiped with a damp cloth.
TIP Use the Self Clean function approx. every 2 weeks.
If the water is very hard, clean the iron weekly.
14 • Cleaning the iron
When the appliance has cooled down, wipe it down with a damp cloth or sponge,
as required.
Remove the dirt from the soleplate with a damp cloth or sponge.
IMPORT NT 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 § 13).
