5. Holding your steam generator in upside down position, and
using a jug, fill the boiler (in the base unit) with 1/4 liter of
water.

completely over a sink or bucket. To obtain the best result, we
recommend that this operation is done twice.
Important!:
Before re-closing, make sure no water remains in the
boiler.
7. Replace and tighten up the boiler drainage plug with a coin.
8. Insert and close the plastic cover by turning it to the
position.
To reset the "Calc'n'Clean" counter, switch the steam station off

3.8.2 Rinsing the iron steam chamber
Caution!
Risk of burns!
This procedure helps to remove scale particles out of the steam
chamber. This cleaning procedure may be performed occasionally
(approximately once a year), when after a long period of use with very
hard water, scale particles start to come out of the soleplate.
a) Ensure that the iron is cooled down.
b) Set the temperature selector (12) of the iron to the "min" position.
c) Fill the tank with tap water.
d) Plug in the mains cable and set the main power switch (7) to the "I"
position.
e) Wait until the "steam ready" indicator lamp (4) lights up.
f) If the steam station has steam regulator (5*), set it to the maximum
position.
g) Hold the iron over the sink or a container to collect the water.
h) Press the steam release button (13) and gently shake the iron.
Boiling water and steam will come out, carrying scale and or deposits
that might be there. This could take approximately 5 minutes.
i) Set the temperature selector (12) of the iron to the "max" position,
without pressing the steam release button (13-14*). The water in the
steam chamber will start evaporating. Wait until all the water inside the
chamber has been evaporated.
j) To clean the soleplate, immediately rub off any residue by running
the hot iron over dry cotton cloth.
