-Shake the iron gently, over the sink, until some of the water in the water tank (with the impurities) has flowed out through the soleplate.

-At the end of the operation, push the anti-calc valve back into position.

-Turn the iron back on for 2 minutes, setting it on its heel, to dry the soleplate.

-Unplug the iron, and when the soleplate is just warm, wipe it with a soft cloth.

2. Cleaning the soleplate

Your iron is equipped with a self-cleaning soleplate, which works by catalysis.

Its exclusive active coating helps continuously eliminate all the impurities generated by the normal day-to-day use of the iron.

However, if you iron using an unsuitable programme, some traces may be left which require manual cleaning. In this case, it is recommended that you use a soft damp cloth on the warm soleplate, in order not to damage the surface.

Note!

The steam control position must necessarily be on STEAM in order to remove or replace the iron's antiscale rod.

Attention! The use of a scouring pad will cause damage to your soleplate's self-cleaning coating - fig. 17

Storing your iron

-Unplug the iron and wait for the soleplate to cool down.

-Empty the water tank and set the steam control to DRY . A little water may remain in the tank.

-Wind the cord not too tightly around the heel at the back of the iron.

-Store the iron on its heel.
