Cleaning
- Before you start cleaning the iron, unplug the appliance and leave it to
cool down sufficiently.
- Scale or other dirt can be wiped off the soleplate by means of a damp
cloth and some non-abrasive (liquid) cleaner.
Keep the surface of the soleplate smooth: avoid hard contact with
metal objects.
- The upper part of the iron can be cleaned with a damp cloth.
- Clean the water reservoir from time to time by filling it with water and
shaking the iron well. Afterwards, empty the reservoir again.
Storage
- Unplug the appliance.
- Pour the remaining water, if any, out of the water reservoir (fig. 13).
- Set the steam control dial to O.
- Put the iron on its heel and leave it to cool down sufficiently.
- Wind the cord around the heel of the appliance (fig 14). Make a loop
first before winding the rest of the cord.
- Always put the iron away on its heel (fig. 15).
Regularly check if the cord is still in good and safe condition.
