If the safety stop function is activated, the lamp of the water tank will start to
flash to indicate that the power supply to the iron has been cut.
In order to reactivate the iron, move the iron forwards and backwards until the
lamp of the water tank is on constantly.
After use
When the ironing is done, set the steam selector at position “0”. Disconnect from
the mains supply and empty the water tank by opening the filling inlet and turn
the iron upside down over e.g. the kitchen sink to let the water run out.
Reconnect the appliance and set the temperature at MAX for 1-2 minutes to let
any remaining water evaporate. Now disconnect from the mains supply and
position the iron on its heel to let the soleplate cool off.
NOTE! Always position the iron on its heel when not in use!
When the iron has cooled down, the cord can easily be wrapped around the heel
of the iron and kept in place by the clip on the cord.
Self-cleaning procedure - cleaning of the steam chamber of the iron
You will get the best result and the iron will last longer if the self-cleaning process
is followed at regular intervals, i.e. once or twice a month. By doing this possible
limestone and fluff in the steam chamber and in the steam holes will be removed.
• Unplug from the wall outlet.
• Set the steam selector at position “0” (closed).
• Fill the water tank to the MAX marking.
• Position the iron vertically on its heel.
• Turn the temperature indicator to MAX and plug the appliance.
• Let the steam iron heat and wait until the signal lamp goes out.
• Unplug from the wall outlet and hold the iron horizontally over a sink.
• Press the “SELF-CLEAN” button and keep it pressed during the entire process.
The button may be a little slow, but this does not mean that the iron is
defective.
• Steam and boiling water will now evaporate from the holes of the soleplate.
Impurities and limestone will be flushed out.
• Move the iron forwards and backwards over the sink while steam and boiling
water evaporate from the soleplate. Continue until the water tank is empty.
• After descaling, release the ”SELF CLEAN” button.
• Let the soleplate cool off and wipe it with a cloth.
