Performing the Calc-Clean process with the Calc-Clean 

container

Warning: Do not leave the appliance unattended during the Calc-Clean process.

Caution: Always perform the Calc-Clean process with the Calc-Clean container. Do not interrupt 
the process by lifting the iron up from the Calc-Clean container, as hot water and steam will come 
out of the soleplate.

1 

Fill up the water tank halfway.
Note: Make sure that the appliance is plugged in and switched ON during the Calc-Clean process.

2 

Place the Calc-Clean container on the ironing board or any other even, stable surface.

3 

Place the iron stably on the Calc-Clean container (Fig. 15).

4 

Press and hold the CALC-CLEAN button for 2 seconds until you hear short beeps (Fig. 16).
Note: The Calc-Clean container has been designed to collect scale particles and hot water during 
the Calc-Clean process. It is perfectly safe to rest the iron on this container during the entire 
process.

5 

During the Calc-Clean process, you hear short beeps and a pumping sound (Fig. 17).

6 

Wait approximately 2 minutes for the appliance to complete the process (Fig. 18). When the 
Calc-Clean process is completed, the iron stops beeping and the CALC-CLEAN light stops flashing.

7 

Wipe the iron with a piece of cloth and put it back on the base station (Fig. 19).

Caution: The iron is hot.

8 

As the Calc-Clean container becomes hot during the Calc-Clean process, wait about 5 minutes 
before you touch it. Then carry the Calc-Clean container to the sink, empty it and store it for future 
use (Fig. 20).

9 

If necessary, you can repeat steps 1 to 8. Make sure that you empty the Calc-Clean container 
before you start the Calc-Clean process.
Note: During the Calc-Clean process, clean water may come out of the soleplate if no scale has 
accumulated inside the iron. This is normal.

For more information on how to carry out the Calc-Clean process, refer to the videos in this link:

Cleaning the soleplate

To properly maintain your appliance, clean it regularly.

1 

Clean the appliance with a moist cloth.

2 

To easily and effectively remove stains, let the soleplate heat up and move the iron over a moist 
cloth (Fig. 21).

Tip: Clean the soleplate regularly to ensure smooth gliding.

Storage

1 

Switch off the appliance and unplug it.

2 

Pour the water out of the water tank into the sink (Fig. 22).

3 

Fold the mains cord and water supply hose together. Push them into the storage compartment 
(Fig. 23).

4 

For GC6819, GC6820 and GC6830 series only: push the carry lock to lock the iron onto the iron 
platform (Fig. 24). You can carry the appliance by the handle of the iron when it is locked onto the 
iron platform (Fig. 25).
