We recommend you to always use distilled water or 50% tap water and 50% distilled
water. All steam generators work more efficiently when distilled water is added.
NOTE: if the iron station is unused for a longer period, ensure that the filter
cartridge (see chapter: Filter System) is removed and allowed to dry outside
of the appliance.
8.2.
Descaling
To rinse any limescale deposits from inside the utensil, operate the utensil with the water
tank filled up to maximum about every 4 weeks with distilled water or with at least 50%
distilled water. Hold the steam iron over a sink or a vessel which you can easily clean
afterwards. Do not iron during cleaning. Proceed as follows:
•
Set the temperature regulator of the iron to position •.
•
Set the steam volume regulator to the
pressure button until steam emerges. Then set the steam volume regulator to the
High position and keep the steam pressure button pressed until as much water as
possible drips from the sole of the iron.
•
Repeat the process but then set the temperature of the iron to the MAX position and
wait until the set temperature is reached (the temperature control lamp of the iron
stops flashing). The rest of the limescale particles are flushed out with the emerging
steam.
•
If limescale should still emerge during ironing, the filter cartridge must be changed
urgently.
8.3.
Filter system
The filter cartridge reduces the formation of residue caused by ironing with water. This
prolongs the life of the utensil. However, please bear in mind that regularly cleaning of
the utensil is important.
The filter cartridge should be changed when the filter indicator flashes. Proceed as follows
to change the filter cartridge:
•
Remove the water tank and the cartridge.
•
Insert a new cartridge and fill the water tank up to the MAX mark.
•
Push the water tank back into its rest.
•
Plug the mains lead back in and press the
at the same time. The filter indicator stops flashing.
