After each use

1. Turn the power off and remove the plug 

from the power outlet.

2. Allow the iron to cool before winding  

the cord around the built-in cord wrap.

Storage  

Empty the tank before storage.
Always store the iron on the base of the 
steam generator.

Cleaning 

To clean the exterior of your iron, wipe  
over with a damp soft cloth and wipe dry.

Caution:

 Do not use harsh abrasives, 

chemical cleaners or solvents to clean the 
exterior of your iron as these will damage 
the surface.

Cleaning the steam holes 

To remove build up from the steam holes 
which may affect steam performance,  
use a cotton wool tip moistened in 
methylated spirits.

Cleaning the soleplate

 

Wipe with a soft damp cloth and wipe dry.

Caution:

 Do not use scouring pads, 

abrasives or harsh cleaners to clean 
your soleplate, as these will scratch and 
damage the surface.

Calc Clean Reminder

Mineral deposits in tap water solidify 
when the water is heated and can build 
up in the steam holes and boiler system 
which can affect steam performance. It is 
important to regularly flush out the boiler 
to maintain the performance of the ironing 
system.
The Calc Clean light illuminates BLUE to 
remind you when it is time to flush the 

boiler. The Calc Clean light illuminates 
after approximately 8 hours of use.

1. To flush the boiler, turn the unit off and 

wait for it to cool completely (approx 2 
hours).

2. Place the unit on a waterproof surface, 

or on the edge of the sink. 

3. Tilt the steam generator onto its side so 

that the bottom surface is visible.

Caution:

 if the unit has been used prior to 

cleaning the boiler cap will be very hot. 
Ensure that the unit has cooled completely 
before commencing the Calc cleaning 
process.
4.  Use the screw driver provided to slowly 

release the boiler cap. See fig 6.

Note:

 The boiler cap needs to be turned
