ANTI DRIP
1. Anti-drip system, which is designed to prevent water
escaping from the soleplate when the iron is too cold
automatically.
2. During use, the anti drip system may emit a loud clicking
sound, particularly during heat-up or whilst cooling down.
This is perfectly normal and indicates that the system is
functioning correctly.
ANTI SCALE
The build-in anti-scale cartridge is designed to reduce the
build-up of limescale which occurs during steam ironing.
This will prolong the working life of your iron. However,
please note that the anti-scale cartridge will not completely
stop the natural process of limescale build-up.

Before cleaning, remove the plug from the socket and allow the iron to cool down sufficiently.

2. If the fiber is adhered to the soleplate, use a damp cloth with vinegar to wipe off the soleplate.
3. Never use strong acid or alkali in order to avoid damaging the soleplate.
4. If the scale blocks the steam hole, please remove the scale with toothpick; do not damage the surface of soleplate.
5. Stand the iron on its end and let it cool down sufficiently, and meantime pour any remaining water out of the box, set
the steam knob to position “O”.
