1 Set the steam control to position 0, remove

the plug from the wall socket and let the iron

cool down.

2 Wipe akes 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.

3 Clean the upper part of the iron with a damp

cloth.

4 Regularly rinse the water tank with water.

Empty the water tank after you have rinsed it.

- The Anti-Calc tablet prevents scale from clogging

the steam vents. This tablet is constantly active and

particles from the iron.

Calc-Clean function more frequently.

1 Make sure the appliance is unplugged.

2 Set the steam control to position 0.

3 Fill the water tank to the MAX level.
