Performing the Calc-Clean process with the Calc-Clean
container
Warning: Do not leave the appliance unattended during the Calc-Clean process.
Caution: 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 (Fig. 4).
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. 5).
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.
4 Press and hold the Calc-Clean button for 2 seconds until you hear short beeps (Fig. 6).
5 During the Calc-Clean process, you hear short beeps and a pumping sound (Fig. 7).
6 When the Calc-Clean process is completed, the iron stops beeping and the CALC-CLEAN light
stops ashing (Fig. 8).
7 Wipe the iron with a piece of cloth and put it back on the base station (Fig. 9).
8 As the Calc-Clean container becomes hot during the Calc-Clean process, wait approx. 5 minutes
before you touch it. Then carry the Calc-Clean container to the sink, empty it and store it for future
use (Fig. 10).
9 If necessary, you can repeat steps 1 to 7. 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.
