Note
: To keep the soleplate smooth, avoid hard contact with metal objects. Never use a scouring pad,
vinegar or other chemicals to clean the soleplate.
Quick Calc Release (specific types only)
IMPORTANT
: The Quick Calc Release automatically collects loose scale particles during ironing. After
1 to 3 months of use, the Calc-Clean reminder light starts flashing to remind you to use the Quick Calc
Release function (Fig. 2-1). This is to remove scales collected from your iron to prolong its life. When
the Calc-Clean reminder light is flashing, the iron does not heat up.
Tip
: The Quick Calc Release function can be used at any time, even when the reminder light is not
activated yet. If you live in a hard water area, use the function more frequently.
Do not perform the Quick Calc Release when the iron is hot. Do not pour water into the Quick Calc
Release opening.

Calc-Clean (specific types only)

1
Make sure that the steam slider is set to “steam off” position.
2
Make sure there is enough water (more than 3/4) in the water tank. If there is not enough water,
unplug the iron, fill the water to MAX indication (Fig.3-2) and plug in the iron again (Fig.3-3).
Do not pour vinegar or other descaling agents into the water tank.
