ANTI-SCALE CARTRIDGE
To reduce scale build-up, you must change the anti-scale cartridge regularly.
After 10 hours of steaming, the O light will glow to tell you that the cartridge needs to be replaced, and
the boiler needs to be descaled.
Press the 2 button and hold it down for 5 seconds, to turn off the O light.
CHANGING THE ANTI-SCALE CARTRIDGE
1. Switch off (2), unplug, and let the appliance cool down completely (at least 2 hours).
2. Lock the iron on top of the base unit.
3. Remove the reservoir.

to water and a sink (or a basin).
5. Turn the whole appliance on its side, with the underside towards you.
6. Open the door of the compartment, and pull the anti-scale cartridge out.

5. Turn the appliance on its side, and pour the vinegar/water mix into the pipe.
6. Replace the boiler access knob, and tighten it up.
7. Shake the appliance from side to side, to ensure the mixture coats the whole of the inside of the
boiler.
8. Leave it for half an hour.
9. Unscrew the boiler access knob, and pour the mixture into the sink.
10. Rinse the boiler with fresh water, to remove scale and vinegar:

12. Finally, replace the boiler access knob, replace the reservoir, wipe up any spillage, and store the
appliance away.
