life of the iron, empty the water tank.
Store the cool iron in a dry place always
standing on its heel rest.
Maintenance and cleaning (F)
To clean the sole plate, use steel wool.
Never use a scouring pad, vinegar or
other chemicals. To clean the soft
material on the handle, use soapy water.
Cleaning the anticalc
valve (G)
The anticalc valve located on the lower
end of the steam regulator has to be
decalcifi ed regularly (e.g. whenever
steam development is insuffi cient). For
this, the water tank has to be empty.
Removing the steam regulator with the
anticalc valve
Turn the steam regulator clockwise
towards the steam setting «6». Keep
on turning fi rmly beyond the resistance
until the steam regulator is lifted. When
positioned at x, pull it out vertically.
Do not touch the anticalc valve at its lower
end. Immerse the anticalc valve in
vinegar (not vinegar essence) or lemon
juice for a minimum of 30 minutes. Brush
off remaining residues and rinse under
running water (fi g. H, 1-7).
Re-inserting the steam regulator
When re-inserting the steam regulator,
make sure the steam regulator base still
points on setting x (fi g. H, 8). Firmly push
down the steam regulator until it turns
back to setting «6» (fi g. H) where it
catches.
Notice: The iron must never be used
without steam regulator.
Decalcifying/anticalc
system (H)
In order to clean the steam chamber from
residues, decalcify it as shown in picture
section I, 1-8.
Caution: Hot water and steam will come
out from the sole plate when the steam
regulator is turned clockwise beyond
setting «6».
Wait for the sole plate to cool down, then
clean it as described above. Then refi ll
the tank with water, heat up the iron and
press the precision shot button 4 times to
rinse the iron before ironing (fi g. I, 9-13).
Do not use commercial decalcifi ers, they
may damage the iron.
