AFTER USE
• Set the steam selector knob to ‘DRY’.
• Disconnect from the mains supply.
• Open the water filling inlet cover.
• Invert iron and shake the iron to empty the water tank, and then stand the iron in
an upright position to allow to cool.
• In order to save space, the power cord may be easily wound around the cord
stowage facility after the iron has cooled.
• Always store the iron (with water emptied from water tank) on its heel rest, not
on the soleplate. Even the smallest amount of moisture will cause corrosion and
staining of the soleplate if the iron is stored with the soleplate facing downwards.
MAINTENANCE
* Self-cleaning
Your iron will give the best ironing results and last longer if you apply self-cleaning
regularly (once or twice a month) to remove any scale or fluff.
• Set the steam selector knob to ‘DRY’ position.
• Fill the water tank up to ‘MAX’ water level with water filling beaker supplied.
• Place the iron on its heel.
• Set the temperature dial to ’LINEN’.
• Plug into the mains supply and switch on at the socket.
• Allow the iron to heat up until the heating indicator light first goes out and then
comes on again.
• Remove the plug from the wall socket.
• Hold the iron horizontally over the sink.
• Set the steam selector knob at position (= descaling) and carefully pull up the
steam selector knob so that it rests in this position.
Caution: When the steam selector knob is pulled up, boiling water and steam will emit
from the holes in the soleplate and wash away the impurities and scale.
• Move the iron forwards and backwards while this happens. Go on letting steam
and water escape until the water tank is virtually empty.
