Anti-Calc Function:
The anti-calc function is a permanet system loacated inside the
water tank to eliminate impurities from the water and to reduce
the problems connected with limescale build-up.
To prolong the efficiency of this system, follow these steps
occasionally:
1. Unplug the iron and allow it to cool down.
2. Locate the water cup that accompanied the iron. Fill it with
water 3/4 full. Add 1 teaspoon of salt to water and fill the
water tank with this solution.
3. Leave the solution in the water tank for 15 minites, shaking
occasionally, and then empty it.
4. Fill the water tank a second time with salt water solution,
shaking occasionally and empty it again after 15 minites.
5. Fill the tank with fresh water to rinse and empty.
Anti-Drip Function:
This system controls the water flow to the soleplate at all times.
Below a certain temperature, the anti-drip function cuts off the
flow of water and stops the iron from dripping onto the fabric.
Auto-Shut Off Function:
The iron will automatically switch off if it is has not been
moved for a while, usually 30 seconds in level state; 8 minutes
in vertical state.
To indicate that the iron has been switched off, the auto-off
indicator light will start blinking.
To heat up the iron again:
1. Pick up the iron or move it slightly.
2. The blue auto-shut off pilot light will go out. The blue
temperature pilot light will come on.
3. When the temperature pilot light had gone out and comes on
again, the irons is ready for use
After each use:
1. Turn the iron off and unplug.
2. Empty the iron immediately after using. Do not store the iron
with water in it.
3. Wait until the iron has cooled before storing it, and always
set it on the Hell Rest to protect the soleplate from scratches,
corrosion or stains.
4. After letting iron cool down completely, store the iron
vertically in a safe place.
Outside surface of the iron:
After unplugging and cooling the iron, simply wipe off with
a damp cloth and if necessary, use a mild detergent.
NEVER USE ANY HARSH CLEANERS .
Soleplate:
Starch and other residue may be easily removed from the
soleplate with a damp cloth.
To avoid scratches the finishing, never use a metallic pad to
clean the Soleplate, and never place the iron on a rough surface.
If synthetics are ironed at too high temperature not only is the
fabric usually ruined, but the iron Soleplate is often covered
with the melted remains of the synthetic fabric. The best way to
remove synthetic residue from the Soleplate is to heat the iron
and to iron over an old cotton rag.
CAUTION:
Never Use steam iron cleaners in the iron, since
they may damage the working parts of the iron.
Maintenance – Self Cleaning:
IMPORTANT:
Your iron will give the best iro-
ning results and last longest if you apply the Self
Cleaning once a month, or more depending upon
the usage.
1. Filling the water tank up to half with water.
2. Position the iron on its rear heel.
3. Select the temperature control dial to ‘MAX’.
4. Plug the iron.
5. Allow the iron to heat up until the indicator light first goes
out.
6. Unplug the iron from the electrical outlet.
7. Keep the iron horizontally over the sink.
8. Set the variable steam knob at maximum position. Boiling
water and steam will now emit from the holes in the
soleplate.
9. Move the iron forwards and backwards white this happens;
go on letting steam and water escape until the water tank is
virtually empty.
10. Turn the variable steam knob to ‘0’ position.
11. Plug in the iron
12. Set the temperature dial to the ‘MAX’ position, let the iron
heat up again, the remainder of the water inside the steam
chamber will now vaporize and leave the iron through the
soleplate.
During this process of dry steaming it is advised to use it over
and old piece of cloth.
