To let the iron heat up again:
1
Pick up the iron or move it slightly
The red auto-off indication goes out.
If the temperature of the soleplate has dropped below the set ironing temperature, the
amber temperature light goes on.
If the amber temperature light goes on after you have moved the iron, wait for it to go out
before you start ironing.
Note: If the amber temperature light does not go on after you move the iron, the soleplate still has the
right temperature and the iron is ready for use.
Cleaning and maintenance
Cleaning
1
Set the steam control to position 0, remove the plug from the wall socket and let the iron
cool down.
Wipe flakes and any other deposits off the soleplate with a damp cloth and a non-abrasive
(liquid) cleaning agent.
To keep the soleplate smooth, avoid hard contact with metal objects. Never use a scouring pad,
vinegar or other chemicals to clean the soleplate.
Clean the upper part of the iron with a damp cloth.
Regularly rinse the water tank with water. Empty the water tank after you have rinsed
it (Fig. 1).
Double-active Calc system (specific types only)
The Double-Active Calc System consists of an Anti-Calc tablet inside the water tank combined with
the Calc-Clean function.
1 The Anti-Calc tablet prevents scale from clogging the steam vents. This tablet is constantly active
and does not need to be replaced (Fig. 13).
2 The Calc-Clean function removes the scale particles from the iron.
Calc-Clean function
Use the Calc-Clean function once every two weeks. If the water in your area is very hard (i.e. when
flakes come out of the soleplate during ironing), use the Calc-Clean function more frequently.
1
Make sure the appliance is unplugged.
Set the steam control to position 0.
Fill the water tank to the maximum level.
Do not pour vinegar or other descaling agents in the water tank.
Set the temperature dial to MAX.
5
Put the mains plug in an earthed wall socket.
6
Unplug the iron when the temperature light goes out.
7
Hold the iron over the sink, press and hold the Calc-Clean button and gently shake the iron
to and fro (Fig. 1).
Steam and boiling water come out of the soleplate. Impurities and flakes (if any) are flushed
out.
8
Release the Calc-Clean button as soon as all the water in the tank has been used up.
