Tip: When you perform the descaling procedure, place the appliance on the edge of the table top or
near the sink. Water may flow out of the appliance when the EASY DE-CALC knob is being opened.
1 Hold a cup (with a capacity of at least 350 ml) under the EASY DE-CALC knob and turn the knob
anti-clockwise. Remove the EASY DE-CALC knob and let the water with scale particles flow into
the cup. (Fig. 17)
2 When no more water comes out of the appliance, reinsert the EASY DE-CALC knob and tighten it
(Fig. 18).
Descaling the soleplate
If you do not descale your appliance regularly, you may see brown stains coming out of the soleplate
due to scale particles. Descale the soleplate by following the procedure below. We advise you to
perform the procedure twice for better results.
1 Make sure the appliance is cool and clean the soleplate with a damp cloth.
2 Empty the water tank through the filling door (Fig. 19). Tilt the appliance and remove the EASY DE-
CALC knob.
3 Pour 500ml distilled water into the DE-CALC opening and tighten the EASY DE-CALC knob (Fig.
20).
4 Fill up the water tank halfway. Switch on the appliance and wait for 5 minutes.
5 Keep the steam trigger pressed continuously while you iron a few pieces of thick cloth in a back-
and-forth motion for 3 minutes (Fig. 21).
Warning: Hot, dirty water (about 100-150 ml) comes out of the soleplate.
6 Stop cleaning when no more water comes out of the soleplate or when steam starts coming out of
the soleplate.
7 Unplug the steam generator and let it cool down for at least two hours. Remove the EASY DE-
CALC knob and let the remaining water flow out. Tighten the EASY DE-CALC knob.
Storage
1 Switch off the appliance and unplug it.
2 Pour the water out of the water tank through the filling door (Fig. 19).
3 Fold the supply hose.
4 Wind the supply hose inside the supply hose storage compartment (Fig. 22).
5 Fold the mains cord and fasten it with the Velcro strip.
6 Place the iron on the iron platform and lock it by pushing the carry lock release button (Fig. 23).
7 You can carry the appliance with one hand by the handle of the iron when the iron is locked on the
iron platform (Fig. 24).
