Auto CalcClean
Note:
The Auto CalcClean process is automatically activated at intervals of approximately 3-5 tanks of water used.
Note:
Once the Auto CalcClean process is activated, it cannot be stopped or skipped.If the Auto CalcClean process is interrupted (for
example unplugged, rinse tray removed, water tank empty), return it to the original status (for example put the mains plug in an
earthed wall socket, put back the rinse tray, fill up the water tank) then the Auto CalcClean process will resume and continue untill it
is completed.
When the Auto CalcClean process
is activated the blue Auto CalcClean
light flashes and the appliance beeps.
This process lasts approximately
3 min.
During this process it is normal to
hear pumping and clicking sounds
from the system.

After approximately 3 minutes, rinsed
water is flushed into the rinse tray
below. The beeping becomes faster and
the red light flashes on the rinse tray.
Pull out the rinse tray.
Empty the water into the sink.
The rinse tray overflows when it is
not emptied before the next Auto
CalcClean session.
Slide the rinse tray back into the
appliance. The appliance stops beeping
and the red light goes out.
Note
: When the Auto CalcClean process
is finished, the power-on light goes on.
The appliance starts to heat up and will
be ready for use again in
approx. 2 minutes. The iron will be heated
up before the steam is ready for use.
Cleaning and maintenance

Cleaning the iron soleplate
Sometimes brown or white scale particles come out of the soleplate together with steam or water droplets. This may happen when
you steam iron at a low temperature (
2
or lower, e.g. ironing without steam), when there is too much water in the water tank
or after the Auto CalcClean process has finished.
To clean the iron soleplate:
1 Set the temperature dial to ‘MIN’.
2 Press the iron on/off button to switch on the iron and wait until the power-on light stops flashing.
3 Place the iron on a cotton cloth.
4 Press the steam activator and move the iron to and fro.
The combination of water and steam flushes out the dirt from the soleplate.
5 Repeat step 1 to 4 until the water that comes out of the soleplate is clean.
