Cleaning and maintenance
After ironing
1 Remove the mains plug from the wall socket and let the iron cool down.
2 Wipe scale and any other deposits off the soleplate with a damp cloth and a non-abrasive
(liquid) cleaner.
To keep the soleplate smooth, you should avoid hard contact with metal objects. Never use a
scouring pad, vinegar or other chemicals to clean the soleplate.
3 Clean the upper part of the appliance with a damp cloth.
4 Regularly rinse the water tank with water. Empty the water tank after cleaning.
Double-Active Calc System (specific types only)
◗ The anti-calc tablet prevents scale from clogging the steam vents.The anti-calc tablet is
constantly active and does not need replacement (fig. 11).
◗ The Calc-Clean function removes the scale particles.
Use the Calc-Clean function once every two weeks. If the water in your area is very hard (i.e. when
flakes come out of the soleplate during ironing), the Calc-Clean function should be used more
frequently.
1 Set the steam control to position O.
2 Set the temperature dial to MAX.
3 Fill the water tank to the maximum level.
Do not pour vinegar or other descaling agents into the water tank.
4 Put the plug in the wall socket.
5 Unplug the iron when the temperature light has gone out.
6 Hold the iron over the sink and set the steam control to the Calc-Clean position x (fig. 12).
7 Pull the steam control slightly upwards and gently shake the iron until all water in the tank
has been used up.
Steam and boiling water will come out of the soleplate. Scale (if any) will be flushed out.
8 After having used the Calc-Clean function, press down the steam control while turning it to
position O.
Repeat the Calc-Clean process if the water coming out of the iron still contains scale particles.
After the Calc-Clean process
1 Connect the iron to the mains to let the soleplate dry.
2 Unplug the iron when the temperature light has gone out.
3 Move the iron gently over a piece of used cloth to remove any water stains that may have
formed on the soleplate.
4 Let the iron cool down before you store it.
