Care and Cleaning

To ensure your iron maintains optimum performance it is recommended that it be cleaned using the Self-Clean function to remove scale or impurities.

•Set the steam selector to the MIN position.

•Fill the water tank up to the maximum level (MAX) with the water cup supplied.

•Set the Temperature Control to MAX (linen) setting.

•Place the iron in the upright position, insert the plug into the power outlet and switch the iron on. The Power Indicator light will illuminate.

•Allow the iron to heat and let stand sitting upright for up to five minutes.

•Switch the iron off at the power outlet and remove the plug.

•Hold the iron horizontally over the sink.

•Press and hold the SELF CLEAN button.

•Water will drip through the holes in the soleplate. Move iron until all water has dripped out of the water tank.

NOTE: Once you have used the Self-Clean function, it is normal for some water to remain in the water tank. This is due to the Anti-Drip System preventing the tank from being emptied completely. This will not affect the performance of the iron.

Repeat the Self-Clean process if the iron still contains a lot of impurities.

Caution: Only push and hold the Self-Clean button when you want to activate the self cleaning function. Do not push and hold whilst ironing.

Boiling water and steam will drip from the holes in the soleplate during the cleaning process. Due caution and attention should be exercised.

Cleaning the Soleplate and Exterior

Ensure that the iron is disconnected from the power outlet.

To remove residue which may have built up from certain fabric finishes, clean the soleplate with a rough cloth that has been soaked in a vinegar and water solution. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.

To clean the steam holes, simply use a damp cloth to wipe away build up of lint or starch from inside the steam holes.

Wipe the outer housing with a soft, damp clean cloth and polish with a dry cloth.

NOTE: Never use abrasives or scouring pads to clean the soleplate. Avoid hard contact with metal objects. Do not scratch or damage the surface of the soleplate.

Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners as they may damage the surface of the iron. Never immerse the iron in water or any other liquid.
