rinsing the iron steam

chamber

Caution! risk of burns!

This procedure helps to remove scale particles from

the steam chamber.

This cleaning procedure may be performed

occasionally (approximately once a year), when after

a long period of use with very hard water, scale

particles start to come out of the soleplate.

a) Ensure that the iron has cooled down.

b) Fill the tank with tap water.

c) Plug in the mains cable and set the main power

button (9) to the “I” position, (illuminated in red).

d) Set the temperature to the

setting.

e) Set the steam setting to and wait until the icon

stops flashing.

f) Hold the iron over the sink or a container to

collect the water.

g) Press the steam release button (13) and gently

shake the iron. Boiling water and steam will be

released, carrying scale and or deposits that

might be inside. This could take approximately 5

minutes.

h) Set the temperature to the

setting, without

pressing the steam release buttons (13-14*).

The water in the steam chamber will start

evaporating. Wait until all the water inside the

chamber has been evaporated.

i) To clean the soleplate, immediately rub off any

residue by running the hot iron over dry cotton cloth.
