of steam button a few times to start this

Build-in Anti-scale System

The build-in anti-scale cartridge is designed 
to reduce the build-up of limescale which oc-
curs during steam ironing.  This will prolonge 
the working life of your iron.

Note: 

The anti-scale cartridge will not com-

pletely stop the natural process of limescale 
build-up.

Self-Cleaning 

SELF-CLEAN

This function removes the scales and 
minerals built up in the Steam Chamber. The 
iron will remain in the best condition if this 
function is performed at least once a month 
or more regularly depending on the hardness 
of the water used.

Water; fill the water tank up to half.

Cleaning Knob to
