IMPORTANT - DESCALING

It is very important to perform the descaling procedure
as soon as the EASY DE-CALC light starts to flash and the
appliance beeps continuously.
The EASY DE-CALC light flashes and the appliance beeps
continuously after about a month or 10 ironing sessions to
indicate that the appliance needs to be descaled. Perform the
following descaling procedure before you continue ironing.
To avoid the risk of burns, unplug the appliance and let it
cool down for at least two hours before you perform the
descaling procedure.
1 Remove the plug from the wall socket.
2 Place the appliance on the edge of the tabletop.
3 Hold a container (with a capacity of at least 350ml) under
the EASY DE-CALC knob and turn the knob anticlockwise.
Tip: You can also take the appliance to a sink and place it in
such a way that the EASY DE-CALC knob points towards the
sink.
4 Remove the EASY DE-CALC knob and let the water with
scale particles flow into the container.
Never remove the EASY DE-CALC knob when the appliance is
hot.
Note: This appliance is specially designed to easily and
effectively remove scale together with the water. It is not
necessary to shake or tilt the appliance.
