• Allow your iron to heat up with a full water tank while

on its heel rest and with the temperature control set
to maximum.

• Once the indicator light switches off, unplug the iron

and place it over a sink.

turbo steam trigger to help flush out the minerals.

• To finish the process, replace the anti-calc collector,

pushing it until you hear a click.

• Plug in your iron for 2 minutes on the heel rest to dry
