E Attention! Risk of burns!
Always unplug the appliance from the
mains supply before carrying out any
cleaning or maintenance operation on it.
1. If the iron is only slightly soiled, pull out the
plug and allow the soleplate (7) to cool down.
Wipe the housing and the soleplate with a
damp cotton cloth only.
2. If the cloth is synthetic, it may melt due to the
high temperature on the soleplate, switch off
the steam and rub off any residue immediately
with a thickly folded, damp cotton cloth.
3. To keep the soleplate smooth, you should
avoid hard contact with metal objects. Never
use a scouring pad, or chemicals to clean the
soleplate.
