Cleaning the soleplate

 1 

Unplug the appliance and let it cool down.

 2 

Pour any remaining water out of the water tank. 

 3 

Wipe flakes and any other deposit off the soleplate with a damp cloth and a non-

abrasive (liquid) cleaning agent.

Note

: To keep the soleplate smooth, avoid hard contact with metal objects. Never use a 

scouring pad, vinegar or other chemicals to clean the soleplate. 

Quick Calc Release (specific types only)

IMPORTANT

: The Quick Calc Release automatically collects loose scale particles during 

ironing.  After 1 to 3 months of use, the Calc-Clean reminder light starts flashing to 

remind you to use the Quick Calc Release function (Fig. 2-1). This is to remove scales 

collected from your iron to prolong its life. When the Calc-Clean reminder light is 

flashing, the iron does not heat up.

Tip

: The Quick Calc Release function can be used at any time, even when the reminder 

light is not activated yet. If you live in a hard water area, use the function more 

frequently. 
Do not perform the Quick Calc Release when the iron is hot. Do not pour water into the 

Quick Calc Release opening. 

 1 

 Unplug the appliance (Fig. 2-2) and make sure that the appliance is cool (Fig. 2-3).

 2 

 Hold the appliance in vertical position over the sink.

 3 

 Flip up the lever of Quick Calc Release collector (Fig.2-4) and pull out the collector 

(Fig.2-5).

 4 

 Clean the Quick Calc Release collector with water (Fig. 2-6, Fig. 2-7).

 5 

 Gently shake the appliance to allow scale particles to fall out (Fig. 2-8).

 6 

 Insert the Quick Calc Release collector back into the appliance (Fig. 2-10).

 7 

 Push down the lever (“click”) to lock the collector (Fig. 2-11).

Calc-Clean (specific types only)

IMPORTANT

: After 1 to 3 months of use, the Calc-Clean reminder light starts flashing to 

remind you to use the Calc-Clean function (Fig. 3-1). This is to remove scales in your iron 

to prolong its life. 

Tip

: The Calc-Clean function can be used at any time, even when the reminder light is 

not activated yet. If you live in a hard water area, use the function more frequently.
