Cleaning the soleplate
Clean the soleplate regularly to remove stains from the soleplate.
- To maintain a good gliding of your soleplate, it is recommended to
clean it regularly (once every 2 months). You can do that by heating up
the iron and moving the soleplate over a moist cloth.
- Descaling the soleplate: if you do not descale your steam generator
regularly, scale may build up on the soleplate. You can remove scale by
following the instructions below:
1
Descale the steam generator before you clean the soleplate
(see section ‘IMPORTANT - Descaling the steam generator’).
2
Tilt the steam generator and pour 500ml distilled water into the
opening. Reinsert the EASY DE-CALC knob and turn the knob
clockwise to fasten it.
3
Press the on/off button and wait for 5 minutes.
4
Put a piece of thick cloth on your ironing board. Place your iron on
the cloth, press and hold the steam trigger. While pressing the steam
trigger, slowly move the iron back and forth across the cloth until no
water comes out anymore or when steam comes out.
Hot, dirty water comes out of the soleplate.
5
Switch off the steam generator and let it cool down for 2 hours.
6
Remove the EASY DE-CALC knob and let the water flow into a cup.
Reinsert the EASY DE-CALC knob and turn the knob clockwise to
fasten it.
7
Repeat steps 2 to 6 of this cleaning procedure.
