CLEANING, STORAGE & MAINTENANCE
• Always turn the variable steam control to ‘0’ after you have emptied the water tank.
• Allow iron to cool down.
• Always store the iron on the metal iron rest or in an upright position on it’s heel rest to
protect the soleplate.
• From time to time clean the exterior with a damp cloth and wipe dry.
• If you use spray starch, wipe the soleplate occasionally with a soft damp cloth to prevent the
forming of a deposit.
• If the iron has not been used for a few weeks, hold the iron horizontally and allow it to steam for
2 minutes before ironing.
WARNING: The anti-drip function reduces water dripping and water stains. It does
not prevent water dripping or water stains if you press the steam burst
button too often or if temperature is too low. The amount of water
droplets will eventually decrease after iron is used for 2 to 3 tankfuls of
steaming and ironing.
