remaining water out of the filling hole.
Replace the water inlet cover.
Ensure the iron is cool and thoroughly dry
before storing in the bag provided.
IMPORTANT: The flex can be damaged if
wound too tightly around the iron after use.
Make a loose loop with the flex and wrap it
around the iron. The iron must be cool before
winding the flex and storing on its heel.
Jet cleaning
Your iron has a built-in cleaning system
designed to keep the water valve, steam
chamber and steam vents clear of lint and
loose mineral deposits. Jet clean should be
used after each period of ironing.
1 Ensuring that there is a little water in the
tank, place the iron on its heel and turn
the temperature control dial to the 3-dot
setting.
2 Wait for the temperature indicator light to
go out, then unplug the iron and hold it
about 6" (150mm) above the sink in the
ironing position.
3 Press the surge button about 10 times in
succession.
4 Empty out any remaining water.
IMPORTANT : Do not use descaling
products in this iron.
To clean a coated soleplate
In the unlikely event of any man-made
fibres fusing to the soleplate, set the iron at
the 3-dot position and pass it over a clean
piece of cotton which will draw the deposit
off the surface.
Do not use scouring powder or solution as
this could cause damage to the coating.
To clean the exterior
Allow the iron to cool and wipe with a
damp cloth, then dry.
