After use
When the ironing is done, put the steam selector in position . Disconnect
from the mains supply and empty the water tank by opening the filling inlet
and turn the iron upside down over a sink to let the water run out. Reconnect
the appliance and set the temperature at “MAX” for 1 to 2 minutes to let any
remaining water evaporate. Now disconnect from the mains supply and position
the iron on its heel to let the soleplate cool off.
NOTE! Always position the iron on its heel when not in use!
Even the smallest amount of water in the steam chamber may damage the
soleplate, if the iron is stored with the soleplate facing downwards. Such
damage is not covered by the warranty.
Cleaning the iron’s steam chamber
The iron will provide the best ironing results and will last longer if the cleaning
procedure is carried out regularly, i.e. once or twice a month. This ensures that
any calcium deposits and fluff in the steam chamber and the steam holes are
removed.
• Plug the appliance into a wall socket.
• Set the steam function button to the position (off).
• Fill the water tank to the MAX mark.
• Set the temperature control to •••.
• Allow the steam iron to heat up and wait until the thermostat light goes out.
• Unplug the appliance and hold the iron horizontal over a sink.
• Turn the steam function button to .
• Steam and boiling water will now come out of the holes in the soleplate.
Impurities and calcium deposits will be rinsed out at the same time.
• Move the iron back and forth over the sink while steam is emitted from the
soleplate. Continue until the steam stops.
• Allow the soleplate to cool and wipe with a cloth.
Repeat the cleaning procedure until no more impurities come out of the iron.
IMPORTANT!
Never activate the cleaning function while ironing.
Cleaning and Maintenance
In case fabric residues should melt on the soleplate, these can be removed by
using a rough cloth soaked in a vinegar water solution. Dry with a soft cloth.
There are various products available that can be used as cleansing agents
for the soleplate in cases, where burned cloth fibres or others stick to the
soleplate. We have not tested all these products and a possible use of such
products is therefore the user’s responsibility. Damage to the soleplate or the
iron due to the use of a cleansing agent is not covered by the warranty.
