How to care for and store an iron.

Stay Clean Vents

The built-in Anti Calcium System (Calc Cut) in the Water Tank continuously reduces scale build up in the vaporizing chamber of the iron.
This system makes it possible to use the steam function for a long period of time and prevents steam vents from clogging.


How to Care for your iron after each use.

  1. Set the Temperature Selector to " 0 "
  2. Unplug the Power Plug.
  3. Empty the Water Tank immediately and turn over the Iron so that the soleplate is facing in an upward direction. Shake it till the water tank is completely empty.
    Do not store the iron with water in it.

  4. Move the Steam/Dry Selector to the Dry position. If the Steam/Dry Selector is not in the Dry position after using, remaining water will move into the Soleplate and can result in burns when the iron is used next time.

  5. Wait until the iron has cooled and always set it on the Heel Rest position when storing the Iron. 
    • Do not wind the Power Cord around the iron. It may be damaged by the hot Soleplate.

  6. Wait until the iron has cooled before storing it, and always set it on the Heel Rest to protect the Soleplate from scratches, corrosion or stains.

Cleaning the outside surface of the iron

  1. After unplugging and cooling the iron, simply wipe off with a damp cloth and if necessary, use a mild detergent.
  2. Never use any harsh cleaners.

Cleaning the Soleplate

  1. Starch and other residue may be easily removed from the Soleplate with a damp cloth.
  2. To avoid scratching the finish, never use a metallic pad to clean the Soleplate, and never place the iron on a rough surface.
  3. The best way to remove synthetic residue from the Soleplate is to iron over an old cotton cloth rag after heating the iron.

Note

  • Never use cleaners in the iron, since they may damage the working parts of the iron. Some odor may be released during initial use of the iron, however, this is normal and the odor will not attach to your clothes. Never use steam iron detergent in the iron, as they may damage working parts of the iron.
