Maintenance
To clean a coated soleplate Do not use
scouring powder or solution as this could
cause damage to the coating. In the unlikely
event of any man-made fibre fusing to the
soleplate, set the iron at the MAX position and
pass it over a clean piece of cotton which will
draw the deposit off the surface. IMPORTANT:
Do not descale the soleplate with descaling
products, proprietary cleaning agents or
vinegar when flushing out the soleplate. To
clean the exterior Allow the iron to cool and
wipe over with a damp cloth and mild
detergent, then wipe with a dry cloth.
