MAINTAINING YOUR
KAMBROOK STEAMLINE
IRON
After Each Use
Set the Variable Steam Control to DRY
Switch off the power from outlet and then
disconnect cord from the power outlet.
Over a sink or bucket turn the iron
upside down and shake the iron to empty
the water tank and then stand the iron in
an upright position to allow to cool.
In order to save space, after the iron has
cooled, the power cord may be easily
wound around the Large Resting Heel.
Always store the iron (with water
emptied from the tank) on its Resting
Heel, NOT on the soleplate. Even the
smallest amount of moisture will cause
corrosion and staining of the soleplate if
the iron is stored with the soleplate facing
downwards.
Cleaning the Exterior and Soleplate
Switch off the power from outlet and then
disconnect cord from the power outlet.
Certain fabric finish residues may build up
on the soleplate, these may be removed
by cleaning with a cloth soaked in vinegar
solution.Then dry with a dry cloth.
DO NOT USE ABRASIVES OR
SCOURING PAD TO CLEAN THE
SOLEPLATE.
KEEP THE SOLEPLATE SMOOTH;
AVOID HARD CONTACT WITH
METAL OBJECTS. DO NOT
SCRATCH OR DAMAGE THE
SURFACE OF THE SOLEPLATE.
Wipe down the outer housing with a
damp cloth and polish with a dry one.
Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners as
they may damage the surface of the iron.
NEVER IMMERSE THE IRON IN
WATER OR ANY LIQUIDS.
DO NOT PUT VINEGAR OR
OTHER DESCALING AGENTS
INTO THE WATER TANK.
To clean steam holes - simply use a damp
cloth to wipe away any build up or lint or
starch from inside the steam holes.
Self Cleaning
Your iron will give the best ironing results
and last longer if you apply the “Self
Cleaning” function regularly (once or
twice a month) to remove any scale or fluff.
Set the Variable Steam Control to DRY.
Fill the Water Tank with water using the
beaker provided to make pouring easier.
Place the iron on its heel. Set the Variable
Temperature Control to Linen.
Plug the cord into the power outlet and
turn the switch on.
Allow the iron to heat up until the
Heating Indicator Light goes out.
Switch off the power and remove cord
from the power outlet.
Hold the iron horizontally over the sink.
Push and hold the Variable Steam Control
to the
(self cleaning) symbol shown
on the control.
Boiling water and steam will now emit
from the holes in the soleplate of your
iron and wash away the impurities and
scale that has built up.
Move the iron backwards and forwards
over the sink while this happens. Allow all
the steam and water to escape until the
Water Tank is empty.
