Cleaning and maintenance
Descaling the appliance
Perform the descaling procedure when the EASY DE-CALC light starts to ash (Fig. 16). This helps to prolong
the lifetime of the appliance and optimizes the ironing performance.
Note: If your water is hard, increase the descaling frequency.
Warning: To avoid the risk of burns, unplug the appliance and let it cool down for at least two hours
before you perform the descaling procedure (Fig. 17).
Tip: When you perform the descaling procedure, place the appliance on the edge of the table top or near
the sink. Water may ow out of the appliance when the EASY DE-CALC knob is being opened.
1 Hold a cup (with a capacity of at least 350 ml) under the EASY DE-CALC knob and turn the knob anti-
clockwise. Remove the EASY DE-CALC knob and let the water with scale particles ow into the cup.

2 When no more water comes out of the appliance, reinsert the EASY DE-CALC knob and tighten it
(Fig.19).
Descaling the soleplate
If you do not descale your appliance regularly, you may see brown stains coming out of the soleplate due
to scale particles. Descale the soleplate by following the procedure below. We advise you to perform the
procedure twice for better results.
1 Make sure the appliance is cool and clean the soleplate with a damp cloth.
2 Empty the water tank through the lling door (Fig. 20). Tilt the appliance and remove the EASY DE-CALC
knob.
3 Pour 500ml distilled water into the DE-CALC opening and tighten the EASY DE-CALC knob (Fig. 21).
4 Fill up the water tank halfway. Switch on the appliance and wait for 5 minutes.
5 Keep the steam trigger pressed continuously while you iron a few pieces of thick cloth in a back-and-
forth motion for 3 minutes (Fig. 22).
