CLEANING
CAUTION: NEVER IMMERSE STEAM STATION IN WATER. THIS COULD
DAMAGE THE PRODUCT.
1. Move the Temperature/Steam Control to MIN.
2. Remove the Detachable Water Tank and empty completely.
NOTE: Do not put vinegar or other descaling agents into the
Detachable Water Tank. Regular Filter cleaning will prevent scale
build-up. See, “CLEANING THE FILTER.”
CAUTION: AVOID COMING IN CONTACT WITH STEAM.
3. Move Temperature/Steam Control to MIN and unplug Steam Station
from outlet and allow to cool completely.
4. Replace Detachable Water Tank to its correct position and then, press
the Steam Button until no more steam comes out of the Iron. This clears
any water from the Water Supply Hose.
5. Wipe the Goldtone Non-Stick Soleplate with a damp, soft cloth. Dry all
parts thoroughly. If starch or other residues cling to the soleplate, use
hot iron cleaner according to directions. Hot iron cleaner is available
at mass merchandise, discount or hardware stores.
CLEANING THE FILTER
The removable Filter should be cleaned for continuous protection against
scaling. We recommend cleaning the Filter system after ten uses. This will
keep the system clean and allow better performance.
1. Move the Temperature/Steam Control to MIN and unplug Steam
Station from outlet.
2. Always allow Steam Station to cool completely.
3. Depress the Water Tank Lock Button and carefully pull out the
Detachable Water Tank. (see Figure 4).
4. Remove Filter from water tank by turning Filter toward arrow and
lifting up (see Figure 5). Set Filter aside.
5. Make a salt-water solution of one part salt to ten parts water. Stir until
salt is dissolved.
6. Place Filter into salt-water solution for about 5 minutes.
7. Remove Filter and shake several times.
8. Repeat steps 6 and 7 three to four times.
9. Discard salt-water solution and place Filter into (or rinse with) clean
water for 5 minutes.
10. Replace filter in Detachable Water Tank. Turn to lock into place.
11. Replace Detachable Water Tank back into Base.
STORAGE
1. Unplug and allow to cool completely. Wipe appliance clean.
2. Store in original box or in a clean, dry place. Never store Steam
Station while it is hot or plugged in. Wrap cords loosely around
product, never wrap cords tightly around product as this could dam-
age the cords.
