MYour iron is equipped with two self clean functions.
Vapodur Valve
MThe patented Vapodur valve ensures that the opening which allows the water to drip from the tank into the steam chamber remains unaffected by hard water deposits.
MTo ensure that your iron continues to steam efficiently the valve MUST be opened and closed a few times after each use. This is done by moving the variable steam control left to right a few times.
Steam Chamber Cleaning Function
This function allows loose mineral deposits and other impurities that build up inside the iron to be flushed out. This type of self cleaning only needs to be carried out occasionally and never more than once a month.
MFill the iron with cold tap water halfway to the max line and set variable steam lever to min.
MStand on heel and plug in.
MSet thermostat dial to maximum (●●●) position.
MWhen the iron reaches the correct temperature, indicator light will go out, unplug iron.
MHold iron horizontally over the sink with soleplate pointing away from the body.
MMove variable steam lever completely to the right and hold in self clean position for one minute.
WARNING:
Doing this will cause steam and hot water to be ejected from the soleplate. Take all proper preacautions and hold iron away from body.
MMove the iron gently back and forth and side to side until all water has run through.
MCarefully wipe all water and material from the soleplate with an old towel, as the water and minerals can stain the soleplate (although this has no effect on glide or performance).
WARNING:
Iron and soleplate may still be hot, exercise care while wiping.
MPlace iron on heel and leave to cool.
MIMPORTANT: Before using the iron after self cleaning, test steam and burst of steam on an old towel or cloth that can be discarded to ensure all loose material have been removed from the iron.
