iron is ready for use.

Cleaning and maintenance

Calc-Clean

This is a Calc-Cleaning function which removes scale and impurities.

Use the Calc-Clean function once every two weeks. If the water in

your area is very hard (when flakes coming out from the soleplate

during ironing), the Calc-Clean function should be used more

frequently.

1Set the steam control to position O.

2Fill the water tank to the maximum level.

Do not use vinegar or other descaling agents.

C3Set the temperature control to MAX.

4Put the plug in the wall socket.

5Unplug the iron when the amber pilot light has gone out.

C6Hold the iron over the sink, press and hold the calc-clean

button and gently shake the iron.

BSteam and boiling water will come out of the soleplate. Impurities and

flakes (if any) will be flushed out.

7Release the Calc-Clean button as soon as all the water in the

tank has been used up.

ENGLISH

Repeat the calc-cleaning process if the iron still contains a lot of

impurities.

After calc-cleaning

- Plug in the iron to let the soleplate dry up.

- Unplug the iron when the amber pilot light has gone out.
