SELF-CLEANING
This function removes the scales and minerals built up in the iron, and remains unit in the best
condition if this function is performed at least once a month or more regularly depending on the

Place the iron on a stable surface in upright standing position.
4.
Connect the iron with a suitable socket.
5.
Turn the temperature dial in clockwise direction to (max) position.
6.
Pilot light will glow to indicate the iron is heating up.
7.
Pilot light will go off when the required temperature is reached.
8.
Wait for one next heating cycle; pilot light will glow and go off.

Turn the temperature dial in anti-clockwise direction to ‘MIN’ position.
10.
Disconnect the iron from the socket.
11.
Hold the iron horizontally over a sink.
12.
Move and hold the Self-Cleaning knob to position.
13.
Steam and boiling hot water will emit from the holes on the sole plate which contains scales and
minerals that deposited in steam chamber in previous uses.
14.
Gently move the iron back and forth until the water tank is empty.
15.
When self-cleaning is completed, release the self-cleaning knob.
16.
Rest your steam iron back on its heel rest and allow it to fully cool down.
17.
Wipe the soleplate with a cold damp cloth.
Caution:
Keep skin/body away from the hot water and hot surface of the iron.
ANTI-DRIP
1.
Anti-drip system is designed to prevent the water escapes from
the soleplate automatically when the iron is too cold.
2.
During use, the anti drip system may emit a loud clicking sound,
particularly during heat-up or whilst cooling down. This is normal
and indicates that the system is functioning correctly.
