- When the amber pilot light (E) goes off, unplug the iron. - Hold the appliance horizontally over a sink (fig. 9). - Set the steam control to position 1 (self clean) (fig. 10). The steam control will then spring up slightly. - Pull the steam control up slightly (fig. 10). - Boiling water and steam will now come out of the holes in the soleplate. Impurities and scale (if any) are washed away with it. Move the iron forwards and backwards while this happens (fig. 11). - Repeat self-clean if a lot of impurities are flushed out. - You can pull the steam control further upwards to remove the steam control needle (fig. 12). It is then possible to remove any scale from the needle. For this purpose you may use vinegar. Avoid bending or damaging the steam control needle! - Replace the steam control needle. Insert the point of the needle exactly in the centre of the aperture and fit the small notch at the side into the spacing (fig. 13). - Press the steam control (fig. 14). - Set the steam control to position O (fig. 2). Do not put vinegar, starch, chemically descaled water or descaling agents in the water reservoir. After self-cleaning - Plug the iron into the mains to dry up the soleplate. - When the amber pilot light (E) goes off, unplug the iron. - Move the iron gently over a piece of used cloth to remove water stains. Cool down the iron for storage. Cleaning - Before cleaning remove the mains plug from the wall socket and allow the iron to cool down sufficiently. - Scale and other stains can be wiped off the soleplate with a damp cloth and a non-abrasive (liquid) cleaner. Keep the soleplate smooth: avoid hard contact with metal objects. - The upper part of the appliance can be cleaned with a damp cloth. - From time to time clean the inside of the water reservoir by filling with water and shaking (fig. 15). Then pour the water back out (fig. 16).
