constantly active and does not need to be replaced (Fig. 15).
2 The Calc-Clean function removes the scale particles from the iron.
Calc-Clean function
Use the Calc-Clean function once every two weeks. If the water in your area is very
hard (i.e. when akes come out of the soleplate during ironing), use the Calc-Clean
function more frequently.

Drip stop
This iron is equipped with a drip-stop function: the iron automatically stops producing
steam when the temperature is too low, to prevent water from dripping out of the
soleplate. When this happens, you may hear a sound.
The automatic shut-off function automatically switches off the iron if it has not been
moved for a while.
