Anti-Calc CartridgeThe anti-calc cartridge in the water tank removes calc from the water, hence preventing calc from building up in the system.

1 cartridge can effectively treat up to 14 full tanks of water before depletion. This is approximately 3 months of usage for a light or moderate user.

Replace the anti-calc cartridge when the red REPLACE CARTRIDGE light is on.

Active ironing boardThe ironing board has 2 portions: Passive & Active board. The longer portion is the Active board. The Active board is specially shaped for shirt or blouse during ironing. It also has a bi-directional fan that offers suction or blowing during use. For optimized performance of the appliance, fan is permanently on during use.

Auto Calc Cleaning System

When the Auto Calc Clean process is activated, the blue Auto Calc Clean light blinks and there will be beeping sounds. This process takes place for ~3min. During this time, it is normal to hear pumping and clicking sounds from the system.After ~3 min, rinse water is flushed into the rinse tank below, the beeping becomes faster and the red light blinks on the rinse tank. Pull out the rinse tank & empty its content into the sink. Put back rinse tank in place, the beeping and the red light blinking will stop.The Auto Calc Clean process is now completed.The green power-on light will come on.The appliance will heat up and steam is ready for use in ~2 min.The Auto Calc Clean process is automatically activated the first time you use the iron after you replaced the anti-calc cartridge

Optimal TEMP IronThe iron is preset with the perfect combination of steam & temperature on all fabrics with:• Cyclonic steam chamber• Smart control processor

With perfect combination of steam & temperature,• No adjustment is required.• Safe on all delicate fabrics.• Fast & effective on the toughest fabrics.
