17 After 3 minutes, turn the temperature control to max, and iron a damp cloth, to clean the
soleplate.
18 Unplug the iron, and sit it on the base unit to cool.
19 When it’s cold, wipe off any moisture, and wind the cable round the heel.
20 Store the iron on the base unit.
replacing the cartridge
21 To reduce scale build-up, you must change the anti-scale cartridge regularly. How often
depends on the hardness of your water, and how much you use the iron.
22 As the base unit now knows the hardness of the water in your area, it will tell you when to
change the anti-scale cartridge (flashing P on the display).
, You must change the cartridge while the base unit is plugged in and switched on, otherwise
it won’t register the new cartridge.
caution wait till the iron cools before replacing the cartridge
23 When you see the flashing P, turn the temperature control down as far as it’ll go, and let the
iron cool while you try to remember where you put the spare cartridge.
24 Remove the reservoir.
25 The next part is just a bit tricky.
26 The cartridge is full of water, which will spill as soon as you pull the holder out.
27 Tuck a folded towel under the front of the base unit, to catch the water.
28 If you can pull the holder out, and, at the same time, try to tilt it so that the rear of the holder
is higher than the front, then you won’t spill very much.
29 Give it a try, it’s easier than juggling.
30 Tip the old cartridge into the sink to drain.
31 Wipe any spillage from the base unit and cartridge holder, and remove the wet towel.
32 Remove the packaging from the new cartridge and drop it into the cartridge holder.
33 Replace the cartridge holder in the base unit.
34 Replace the reservoir in the base unit.
, Check the display, O flashing means the cartridge or holder isn’t pushed in properly.
35 When the cartridge and holder are fitted, replace the reservoir and carry on ironing.
36 If you don’t have a spare cartridge handy, or you’re waiting for one to be delivered, you
should use distilled water (not chemically descaled or softened water).
, Products returned under guarantee with faults due to scale will be subject to a repair charge.
