Care and Cleaning
To ensure your iron maintains optimum
performance it is recommended that
it be cleaned using the Self-Clean
function to remove scale or impurities.
•
Set the steam selector to the
DRY position.
•
Fill the water tank up to the
maximum level (MAX) with the
water cup supplied.
•
Set the Temperature Control to MAX
(Linen) setting.
•
Place the iron in the upright position,
insert the plug into the power outlet
and switch the iron on.
•
Allow the iron to heat until the
heating indicator light turns off.
•
Switch the iron off at the power
outlet and remove the plug.
•
Hold the iron horizontally over
the sink.
•
Press and hold the SELF
CLEAN button.
•
Water will drip through the holes
in the soleplate. Move iron until
all water has dripped out of the
water tank.
NOTE:
Once you have used the
Self-Clean function, it is normal
for some water to remain in the
water tank. This is due to the
Anti-Drip System preventing
the tank from being emptied
completely. This will not affect
the performance of the iron.
Repeat the Self Clean process if the
iron still contains a lot of impurities.
CAuTION:
Only push
and hold the self clean
button when you want
to activate the self
cleaning function.
Do not push and hold
whilst ironing.
Boiling water and steam
will drip from the holes
in the soleplate during
the cleaning process.
Due caution and
attention should
be exercised.
Cleaning the Soleplate
and Exterior
Ensure that the iron is disconnected
from the power outlet.
To remove residue which may have
built up from certain fabric finishes,
clean the soleplate with a rough cloth
that has been soaked in a vinegar
and water solution. Dry thoroughly
with a soft cloth.
To clean the steam holes, simply
use a damp cloth to wipe away build
up of lint or starch from inside the
steam holes.
Wipe the outer housing with a soft,
damp clean cloth and polish with a
dry cloth.
