rinsing the iron steam
chamber
E
E
Caution! risk of burns!
This procedure helps to remove scale particles from
the steam chamber.
This cleaning procedure may be performed
occasionally (approximately once a year), when after
a long period of use with very hard water, scale
particles start to come out of the soleplate.
a) Ensure that the iron has cooled down.
b) Fill the tank with tap water.
c) Plug in the mains cable and set the main power
button (9) to the “I” position, (illuminated in red).
d) Set the temperature to the
setting.
e) Set the steam setting to and wait until the icon
stops flashing.
f) Hold the iron over the sink or a container to collect
the water.
g) Press the steam release button (13) and gently
shake the iron. Boiling water and steam will be
released, carrying scale and or deposits that
might be inside. This could take approximately 5
minutes.
h) Set the temperature to the
setting, without
pressing the steam release buttons (13-14*).
The water in the steam chamber will start
evaporating. Wait until all the water inside the
chamber has been evaporated.
i) To clean the soleplate, immediately rub off any
residue by running the hot iron over dry cotton cloth.
