Cleaning and maintenance

Descaling the steam generator with the EasY DE-CalC knob
To prevent scale build-up inside the steam generator and to ensure long-
lasting steaming performance, this steam generator has a DE-CALC light
on the control panel. This light flashes after about a month or 10 ironing
sessions. When this light flashes, perform the descaling procedure with
the EASY DE-CALC knob by following the steps below.
Never remove the EASY DE-CALC knob when the steam generator
is hot.
1 Press the on/off button to switch off the steam generator and
remove the plug from the wall socket.
2 Let the steam generator cool down for 2 hours.
3 Place the steam generator on a stable table top, with the EASY
DE-CALC knob over the edge of the table top.
Tip: You can also take the steam generator to a sink and place it so that the
EASY DE-CALC knob is pointing towards the sink.
4 Hold a cup of at least 350cc under the EASY DE-CALC knob to
collect the water that flows out.
5 Turn the EASY DE-CALC knob anti-clockwise to remove it and let
the water with scale particles flow into the cup.
Note: Water starts to flow out of the steam generator as soon as you turn the
EASY DE-CALC knob to remove it.
Note: This steam generator is specially designed to remove scale together with
the water easily and effectively. It is not necessary to shake or tilt the steam
generator.
6 When no more water comes out of the steam generator, reinsert
the EASY DE-SCALE knob and turn it clockwise to fasten it.
7 Put the mains plug in an earthed wall socket and press the DE-CALC
reset button to reset the EASY DE-CALC function. The DE-CALC
light goes out.
