BE CAREFUL ! Unplug your iron and let it cool down before cleaning it.
• CLEANING THE ANTI-CALC VALVE
(Once a month) :
- Unplug your iron and empty the water tank.
- To remove the anti-calc valve, pull it up using the tabs
located on each side (M).
NEVER TOUCH THE END OF THE VALVE.
- Soak the valve in a cup of white spirit vinegar or plain
lemon juice for 4 hours (N).
- Rinse the valve under running water.
- Replace the anti-calc valve.
N
THE IRON WILL NOT FUNCTION WITHOUT THE ANTI-CALC VALVE.
• SELF-CLEANING :
In order to extend the life of your iron, use the Self-Cleaning function once a
month.
- Fill the tank of your iron with untreated tap water. Stand the iron on it's heel with the
thermostat set to max and heat it up.
- When the thermostat light goes out, unplug the iron and hold it in a horizontal position,
over a sink.
- Remove the anti-calc valve.
- Shake the iron gently, over the sink, until some of the water in the water tank (with the
impurities) has flowed out through the soleplate.
- At the end of the operation, push the anti-calc valve back into position.
- Unplug the iron, and when the soleplate is just warm, wipe it with a soft cloth.
