The EASY DE-CALC light ashes and the appliance beeps continuously after about a month or 10 ironing
sessions to indicate that the appliance needs to be descaled. Perform the following EASY DE-CALC
procedure before you continue ironing.
To avoid the risk of burns, unplug the appliance and let it cool down for at least two hours before you
perform the EASY DE-CALC procedure.
1 Remove the plug from the wall socket (Fig. 13).
2 Place the appliance on the edge of the tabletop.
3 Hold a cup (with a capacity of at least 350ml) under the EASY DE-CALC knob and turn the knob
anticlockwise (Fig. 14).
4 Remove the EASY DE-CALC knob and let the water with scale particles ow into the cup (Fig. 15).
5 When no more water comes out of the appliance, reinsert the EASY DE-CALC knob and turn it
clockwise to fasten it (Fig. 16).
6 You can continue using your iron immediately after completing the EASY DE-CALC procedure.
IMPORTANT – Descaling the soleplate
If you do not use the EASY DE-CALC function regularly, scale particles may build up in the soleplate and
brown stains may come out of the soleplate during ironing. In this situation, you need to descale the
soleplate by following the procedure below. We advice you to repeat the procedure twice to better clean
the soleplate.
To avoid the risk of burns, unplug the appliance and let it cool down for at least two hours before you
descale the soleplate.
1 Remove the plug from the wall socket (Fig. 13).
2 Place the appliance on the edge of the tabletop.
3 Make sure that the water tank is empty.
4 Hold a cup (with a capacity of at least 350ml) under the EASY DE-CALC knob and turn the knob
anticlockwise (Fig. 14).
5 Remove the EASY DE-CALC knob and let the water with scale particles ow into the cup (Fig. 15).
6 Hold the appliance in the position that EASY DE-CALC opening is facing up and pour 900ml distilled
water into the opening (Fig. 17).
Note: Be mindful on the heavy weight of the appliance when you tilt it.
7 Keep the EASY DE-CALC opening facing up, reinsert the EASY DE-CALC knob and turn it clockwise to
fasten it (Fig. 18).
8 Put the appliance back on a stable and even surface. Plug in the appliance and switch it on (Fig. 19).
9 Wait for 5 minutes for the appliance to heat up.
10 Keep the steam trigger pressed continuously while you move the iron on a piece of thick cloth for 3
minutes (Fig. 20).
Warning: hot, dirty water comes out of the soleplate.
11 Stop moving the iron when no more water comes out or when steam starts coming out.
