The anti-scale cartridge is designed to reduce
the build-up of limescale which occurs during
steam ironing, this will prolong the working life of
your iron. However, please note that the anti-
scale cartridge will not completely stop the natural
process of limescale build-up.
Using your anti-scale iron for the first time
If you are using your iron for the first time you
will notice that there are no anti-scale granules
present in the anti-scale cartridge. To keep the
granules in optimum working condition they are
stored in an air-tight container located in the
packaging of your iron. To activate the anti-scale
system you must fill the anti-scale cartridge with
granules, as described below.
Filling/Refilling your anti-scale cartridge
1 Empty any remaining
water from the tank,
(see emptying and
storing section).
2 Remove the anti-scale
cartridge from the
iron by turning it anti-
clockwise a quarter of a
turn and pulling it out
E.
3 Remove the cartridge lid
as follows: hold the
cartridge upright and
gently squeeze it by the
retaining lugs. Gently pull
off the lid
F. If you are re-
filling, dispose of the used
granules then rinse the
cartridge under the cold
tap to remove any that
remain.
4 Remove the anti-scale
granule container from
its packaging and take
off the lid.
5 Fit the neck into the
cartridge and gently pour
in all of the granules
G.
You may need to gently tap
the bottom of the container
to get all of the granules out.
6 Replace the lid back on the
cartridge by aligning the holes
with their lugs and pressing
down until it clicks shut on
both sides
H.
7 Rinse the cartridge under the
cold water tap to remove any
loose granules which may be
on the outside surface. (Any
granules entering the iron
may harm it).
8 Insert the cartridge back in its
hole. Push it in as far as
possible making sure it is
aligned as shown
J. Turn it
clockwise until the pointer
aligns with the marker on the
iron and it is closed flush tight
K.
9 Your iron is now ready to use
and the water tank can be
filled.
Refilling intervals
How often you need to refill your anti-scale
cartridge depends on how often you use your iron
with its steam functions and how ‘hard’ your
water supply is. Water hardness varies greatly
from one area to another. For advice on the
relative hardness of your water, contact your local
water supplier.
If, on average, you spend 2 hours per week
ironing then we suggest you refill your anti-scale
cartridge as shown in the table below. If you iron
more or less frequently then you should alter the
interval between refills accordingly.
