Additional Functions
ANTI SCALE SYSTEM
The appliance has a build-in anti-limescale container.
It is designed to reduce the build-up of limescale which
occurs during steam ironing.
The build-in anti-scale cartridge prolongs
the service life of the iron. However, it will
not completely stop the natural process of
limescale build-up.
SELF CLEANING
This function provides for removal of scale and mineral
built-up in the Steam Chamber. The performance of the iron
largely depends on the water hardness and the frequency
of performing the self-cleaning process. It is recommended
to perform self-cleaning at least once a month or more
regularly.
