Self Clean - Russell Hobbs Rapidsteam RHC902 Instructions & Warranty

SELF CLEAN

To prevent residues building up, use the Self Clean button regularly,
at least monthly in normal water areas, more often in hard water
areas. You will require a sink or a large bowl to catch the water
coming out of the soleplate.
• Fill the tank to the 'max' level.
• Sit the iron on its heel.
• Plug the power cord into the wall power outlet, and switch it on.
Turn the temperature control dial to 'max'. Wait until the
•
temperature light switches off.
• Hold the iron over the basin or bowl, with the soleplate facing down.
• Press the Self Clean button and hold, whilst gently moving the iron to and from over the sink
or bowl.
CAUTION: Keep clear of the escaping water and steam.
• Water and steam will wash any residues through the soleplate, and into the sink or bowl.
• Release the self clean button when done.
• Empty the remaining water from the tank.
• Turn the temperature control dial to 'nylon', move the steam control to no steam.
• Unplug the iron, and sit the iron on its heel to cool.
• When it is cold, wipe off any moisture.
• Store the iron on its heel, to avoid corrosion and damage to the soleplate.
CLEANING
• Unplug the iron when not in use, and before cleaning.
• Allow the iron to cool down completely before cleaning and storing away.
• Wipe outer surfaces with a damp cloth. If necessary, use a little dishwashing liquid.
• Remove spots, or burnt on fabrics, by ironing a damp cotton or linen cloth with the iron hot.
Take care not to scratch the soleplate.
• Do not immerse the iron in water or any other liquid.
• Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaning agents, solvents or scourers on the soleplate as these
will damage the coating.
