ENGLISH 15
IMPORTANT - DESCALING
It is very important to perform the descaling procedure as
soon as the EASY DE-CALC light starts to ash and the
appliance beeps continuously.
The EASY DE-CALC light ashes and the appliance beeps continuously
after about a month or 10 ironing sessions to indicate that the appliance
needs to be descaled. Perform the following descaling procedure
before you continue ironing.
3 Hold a container (with a capacity of at least 350ml) under the
EASY DE-CALC knob and turn the knob anticlockwise.
Tip: You can also take the appliance to a sink and place it in such a way that
the EASY DE-CALC knob points towards the sink.
4 Remove the EASY DE-CALC knob and let the water with scale
particles ow into the container.
Never remove the EASY DE-CALC knob when the appliance is hot.
Note: This appliance is specially designed to easily and effectively remove
scale together with the water. It is not necessary to shake or tilt the appliance.
5 When no more water comes out of the appliance, reinsert the
EASY DE-CALC knob and turn it clockwise to fasten it.
Make sure the EASY DE-CALC knob is properly tightened after
descaling.
