• To extend the life of your steam station and
avoid scale on your ironing, your steam station
is equipped with a built-in scale collector. This
collector, located in the boiler, automatically
removes the scale that forms inside.
Operation:
• An orange "Calc Away OK button" light located
-
fig. 17
on the control panel starts flashing to
tell you that the scale collector needs rinsing.
• Once the steam station has cooled completely,
remove the scale collector -
fig.

IMPORTANT! This operation must not be
carried out unless the steam station has
been unplugged for at least two hours and
has cooled down completely. To carry out
this operation, the steam station must be
close to a sink as water may come out of
the tank when it is opened.
• Unscrew the scale collector and remove it
from the housing; it contains the scale
that has built up in the tank -
