Cleaning & Maintenance - Bosch Sensixx'x DA30 Gebrauchsanleitung

Tips to help you save energy
Steam production consumes the most energy. To
help minimise the energy used, follow the advice
below:
1. Start by ironing the fabrics that require
the lowest ironing temperature. Check the
recommended ironing temperature in the label
on the garment.
2. Regulate the steam according to the selected
ironing temperature, following the instructions
in this manual.
3 Only use steam if necessary. If possible, use
the spray function instead.
Try to iron the fabrics while they are still damp
and reduce the steam setting. Steam will be
generated from the fabrics rather than the
iron.
If you tumble dry your fabrics before ironing
them, set the tumble drier on the 'iron dry'
program.
4. If the fabrics are damp enough, turn off the
steam regulator (3) completely.
5. Stand the iron upright during pauses. Resting
it horizontally with the steam regulator on
generates wasted steam.
Cleaning & Maintenance
E Attention! Risk of burns!
Always unplug the appliance from the
mains supply before carrying out any
cleaning or maintenance operation on it.
1. If the iron is only slightly soiled, pull out the
plug and allow the soleplate (7) to cool down.
Wipe the housing and the soleplate with a
damp cotton cloth only.
2. If the cloth is synthetic, it may melt due to the
high temperature on the soleplate, switch off
the steam and rub off any residue immediately
with a thickly folded, dry cotton cloth.
3. To keep the soleplate smooth, you should
avoid hard contact with metal objects. Never
use a scouring pad, or chemicals to clean the
soleplate.

Multiple descaling system
AntiCalc
A self-clean
Each time you use the steam regulator (3), the
"self-clean" system cleans the mechanism of
scale deposits.
B Calc'nClean
The "Calc'nClean" function helps to remove
scale particles out of the steam chamber. Use
this function approximately every 2 weeks if the
water in your area is very hard.
1 Unplug the iron from the mains socket, set
the steam regulator (3) to the
2 Set the temperature control (12) to the "max"
position and plug in the iron.
3 After the necessary warm-up period, the lamp
goes out. Then, unplug the iron (very
important!).
4 Set steam regulator to the "max" position.
5 Hold the iron over a sink. Press the "clean"
button (10) and shake the iron until
approximately one third of the water capacity
of the tank is evaporated. Boiling water and
steam will come out, carrying scale or
deposits that might be there.
6 Release the "clean" button, and gently shake
the iron for some seconds.
7 Repeat the steps 5 and 6 three times until the
tank is empty.
8 Then plug the iron in and heat it up again until
the remaining water has evaporated.
9 Unplug the iron and let the soleplate (7) cool
down. Wipe the soleplate with a damp cotton
cloth only.
C anti-calc
The "anti-calc" cartridge has been designed to
reduce the build-up of scale produced during
steam ironing, helping to extend the useful life of
your iron. Nevertheless the "anti-calc" cartridge
cannot remove all of the scale that is produced
naturally over time.
