Calc-clean function
You can use the calc-clean function to remove scale and impurities.
◗ Use the calc-clean function once every two weeks. If the water in
your area is very hard (i.e. when flakes come out of the soleplate
during ironing), the calc-clean function should be used more
frequently.
1 Make sure the appliance is unplugged.
2 Fill the water tank until it is half full.
Do not put vinegar or other descaling agents in the water tank.
3 Put the plug in the wall socket.

control to position 4.

5 Hold the iron over the sink, press and hold the calc-clean
button and gently shake the iron to and fro.
Steam and boiling water will come out of the soleplate. Impurities and
flakes (if any) will be flushed out.
6 Release the calc-clean button as soon as the water in the tank
has been used up.
Repeat the calc-clean process if the iron still contains a lot of impurities.
After the calc-clean process
- Put the plug in the wall socket, set the temperature dial to position
2 and let the iron heat up to allow the soleplate to dry.
- Unplug the iron when it has reached the set ironing temperature.
- Move the hot iron gently over a piece of used cloth to remove any
water stains that may have formed on the soleplate.
- Let the iron cool down before you store it.
