F Maintenance and cleaning
To clean the sole plate, use steel wool.
Never use a scouring pad, vinegar or
other chemicals. To clean the soft material
on the handle, use soapy water.
G Cleaning the anticalc valve
The anticalc valve located on the lower
end of the steam regulator has to be
decalcifi ed regularly (e.g. whenever steam
development is insuffi cient). For this, the
water tank has to be empty.
Removing the steam regulator with the
anticalc valve
Turn the steam regulator clockwise
towards the steam setting «6». Keep
on turning fi rmly beyond the resistance
until the steam regulator is lifted. When
positioned at x, pull it out vertically.
Do not touch the anticalc valve at its lower
end. Immerse the anticalc valve in vinegar
(not vinegar essence) or lemon juice for
a minimum of 30 minutes. Brush off
remaining residues and rinse under
running water (fi g. H, 1-7).
Re-inserting the steam regulator
When re-inserting the steam regulator,
make sure the steam regulator base still
points on setting x (fi g. H, 8). Firmly push
down the steam regulator until it turns
back to setting «6» (fi g. H) where it
catches.
Notice: The iron must never be used
without steam regulator.
H Decalcifying/anticalc system
In order to clean the steam chamber from
residues, decalcify it as shown in picture
section I, 1-8.
Caution: Hot water and steam will come
out from the sole plate when the steam
regulator is turned clockwise beyond
setting «6».
Wait for the sole plate to cool down, then
clean it as described above. Then refi ll the
tank with water, heat up the iron and press
the precision shot button 4 times to rinse
the iron before ironing (fi g. I, 9-13).
Do not use commercial decalcifi ers, they
may damage the iron.
