Cleaning the removable steam valve

• In addition to the self-cleaning operation, we advise cleaning
the steam valve once a month (e.g. whenever steam
development is insufficient). The steam valve is located at the
lower end of the steam selector .
• Before removing and cleaning the steam valve unplug the iron
and empty the water tank.
• Carefully pull out the steam selector . Do not touch the steam
valve at its lower end (Figure 14).
• Immerse the steam valve in vinegar (not vinegar essence) for
4 hours until the lime becomes soft. Using a non-metallic
brush to remove remaining residues, then rinse under running
water. Do not use sharp objects for cleaning the steam
valve(Figure 15).
• Replace the steam selector by pressing the steam selector
down (Figure16) and turn the knob to position '
(Figure 17).
• Insert the plug into the wall socket.
• Set the temperature dial to position LINEN.
• Let the iron heat up again.
• The remainder of the water inside the steam chamber will now
vaporize.
• Unplug from power supply and allow soleplate to cool and
wipe it clean with a soft damp cloth.
NOTE!
The iron will not operate without the steam selector
fitted.
