After ironing / storage
• Press the On/Off button (2) to turn off the
appliance.
• Unplug and let the appliance cool down before
storing.
• Empty the water tank.
• Lock the iron.
(E) Lock system
The lock system can be used for a safe and easy
storage of the steam station and the iron. Do not lift
or carry the appliance on the handle of the locked
iron.
• Place the soleplate into the recess on the iron
mat.
• Press down the tip of the iron until you hear a
"click" and the iron will be locked automatically.
• To unlock the iron slide the locking system
forward. The iron will be released.
(F) Descaling
Never open or touch the closure (8) when the
appliance is hot and/or plugged in.
To maintain optimum performance, the system
needs to be decalcified after every 15 litres of water
consumption (about 8 complete refills).
Do not use any chemicals, additives or descaler to
rinse the boiler.
The icon
is flashing.
a. Switch off (2) and unplug the appliance. Unlock
the iron and remove it from the iron rest. Wait
until the appliance has cooled down (minimum
2.5 hours).
b. Empty the water tank.
c. Turn the closure (8) anticlockwise to open it.
Empty the boiler.
d. Pour in 500 ml tap water.
e. Screw the closure to close the boiler.
f. Shake the base unit to rinse.
g. Empty the boiler. Repeat this procedure one
more time.
h. After having finished the descaling procedure,
plug in and switch on.
i. Press the calc clean system button (3) for
2 seconds to reset.
If the appliance is switched off without descaling,
the icon
will start to flash again when it is next
switched on.
Note: Because of the different water composition
by using an installed in-house permanent descaler,
it is recommended to descale the system after
every 4 complete refills or at least once per month.
Please note that in this case the icon for descaling
will not automatically start flashing.
(G) Care and Cleaning
• Before cleaning, always make sure that the
appliance is switched off, unplugged and has
cooled down completely.
• To clean the soleplate it is suggested to use a
damp cloth.
• To clean the soft material on the handle and the
high glossy surface use a damp cloth only.
• Never use chemicals, vinegar or scouring pads
(eg. sponges with coarse nylon fabrics etc).
Please do not dispose of the product in the
household waste at the end of its useful life.
Disposal can take place at a Braun Service
Centre or at appropriate collection points
provided in your country.
