| Steam control positions | O = no steam, q = moderate steam, w = maximum steam, x = Calc‑Clean function |
|---|---|
| Electronic safety shut‑off timing | 30 seconds when horizontal, 8 minutes when vertical |
| Temperature dial range | 2 to MAX for moderate steam, 3 to MAX for maximum steam and extra‑steam |
Wipe the soleplate with a damp cloth and a non‑abrasive liquid cleaning agent; avoid scouring pads, vinegar, or other chemicals.
The Calc‑Clean function removes scale particles from the steam vents by heating the iron and flushing water through the soleplate.
If the iron is not moved for a set time, the function automatically switches off power; the auto‑off light blinks to indicate shutdown.
