To turn on the iron again, just move it.
When the «auto-off» pilot light stops 
flashing, the electrical power is on again.

E Textile Protector

Before attaching the Textile Protector 
for the first time, iron approximately 
2 minutes without the Textile Protector.
The Braun Textile Protector protects 
delicate fabrics from heat damage and 
makes it possible to iron most dark fabrics 
without an intermediate cloth. To check 
the reaction of your fabrics before you 
start ironing, we recommend that you iron 
a small section of material on the reverse 
side. With the Protector, you are able to 
iron delicate fabrics with the temperature 
setting «•••» or «

max

», so that you can 

use all steam functions your iron offers.
After having attached the Textile Protec-
tor, wait about 1

 minutes before you 

start ironing. Always store your iron with 
the Textile Protector detached.

F After ironing

Unplug the iron. To prolong the life of the 
iron, empty the water tank. Store the cool 
iron in a dry place always standing on its 
heel rest.

G Maintenance and cleaning

To clean the sole plate, use steel wool. 
Never use a scouring pad, vinegar or other 
chemicals.

H Cleaning the anticalc valve

The anticalc valve on the steam regulator 
has to be decalcified regularly (e.g. when-
ever steam development is insufficient). 
For this, the water tank has to be empty.

Removing the steam regulator with the 
anticalc valve

Turn the steam regulator clockwise to the 
double arrow at the end of the anticalc 
section and it will lift. Pull it out vertically. 
Do not touch the anticalc valve at its lower 
end. Immerse the anticalc valve in vinegar 
(not vinegar essence) or lemon juice for 
minimum 30 minutes. Brush off remaining 
residues and rinse under running water 
(fig. H 1-5).

Re-inserting the steam regulator

To re-insert the steam regulator follow fig. 
6 and 7.

Notice: The iron must not be used without 
the steam regulator.

I Decalcifying/anticalc system

In order to clean the steam chamber from 
residues, decalcify it as shown in fig. 
I 1-11.

Caution: Hot water and steam will come 
out from the sole plate when the steam 
regulator is turned clockwise into the 
anticalc area.

Wait for the sole plate to cool down, then 
clean it as described above.

Then refill the tank with water, heat up 
the iron and press the power shot button 
4 times to rinse the iron before ironing 
(I 12-13).

Do not use commercial decalcifiers, they 
may damage the iron.
