NOTE! Always position the iron on its heel when not in use!
Even the smallest amount of water in the steam chamber may damage the soleplate,
if the iron is stored with the soleplate facing downwards. Such damage is not covered
by the warranty.
Descaling procedure – cleaning the steam chamber of the iron
You will obtain the best ironing quality and the iron will last longer if the self-cleaning
procedure is followed at regular intervals, such as once or twice a month as this will
remove possible scale and ”lint” in the steam chamber and in the steam holes.
•
Make sure that the plug of the iron is removed from the mains socket.
•
Set the steam selector in position (closed).
•
Fill the water tank to the MAX water level.
•
Place the iron on its heel.
•
Set the temperature indicator at
•••
and connect the plug in the socket.
•
Let the steam iron heat up and wait until the thermostat light has gone out and
then on again.
•
Set the thermostat at MIN.
•
Unplug and keep the iron horizontally over a sink.
•
Press the self-cleaning button and keep it pressed during the entire self-
cleaning procedure. The button may be a little tight, but this does not mean that
the iron is defective.
•
Steam and boiling water will now emit from the holes in the soleplate. Impurities
and scale will be flushed out at the same time.
•
Move the iron forwards and backwards over the sink while steam and boiling
water emit from the soleplate and continue until the water tank is empty.
•
After descaling release the self-cleaning button.
•
Let the soleplate cool off and wipe with a damp cloth.
Repeat the self-cleaning procedure until there are no more impurities.
IMPORTANT! Never use the self-cleaning button while ironing. The self-cleaning
button should only be used when activating the self-cleaning procedure
Cleaning and Maintenance
In case fabric finish residues should melt on the soleplate, these can be removed by
using a rough cloth soaked in a vinegar water solution. Dry with a soft cloth. There
are various products available that can be used as cleansing agents for the soleplate
in cases, where burned cloth fibres or others stick to the soleplate. We have not
tested all these products and a possible use of such products is therefore the user’s
responsibility. Damage to the soleplate or the iron due to the use of a cleansing agent
is not covered by the warranty.
