Calc clean function

IMPORTANT: This iron comes with a Built-in calc container, which collects loose scale

particles during ironing. The calc container is not meant for removal by the user. The

scale particles are flushed out of the iron during calc clean process. Perform calc clean

once every 1 month to maintain good steam performance and prolong the life of your

iron. If water in your area is hard, or you see scales coming out from the soleplate

during ironing, use calc clean more frequently.

1 Make sure the iron is unplugged and the steam slider is set to dry setting (Fig. 11).

2 Fill the water tank to the MAX indication (Fig. 12).

Do not pour vinegar or other descaling agents into the water tank.

3 Plug in the iron and set the temperature dial to MAX (Fig. 13-14).

4 Unplug the iron when the temperature light goes out (Fig. 15-17).

5 Hold the iron over the sink. Keep pushing the calc clean button and gently shake the

iron forth and back until all water in the water tank has been used up (Fig. 18).

Scales is ushed out, steam and boiling water also come out of the soleplate.

Note: Repeat steps 2 to 5 if the water that comes out of the iron still contains scale

particles.

7 Unplug the iron when the temperature indicator light goes out.

soleplate.
