7. Holding your steam generator in the lateral position
and using a jug, fill the boiler with 1/4 litre of water
and replace the filter.
8. Shake the base unit for a few moments, unscrew the
filter again and empty the boiler completely over a
sink or bucket.
For best results, we recommend that this operation
is performed twice.
Important: before re-closing, make sure no water
remains in the boiler.
9. Replace and tighten the filter.
To reset the “Clean” counter, switch the steam
station on and off twice, keeping it off for at least 30
seconds each time.
(on → 30s off → on → 30s off → on)
Rinsing the iron steam chamber (G)
Caution! Risk of burns!
This procedure helps to remove scale particles from the
steam chamber.
Perform approximately every 2 weeks, if the water in
your area is very hard.
a) Ensure that the iron has cooled down.
b) Set the temperature to the
setting.
c) Fill the tank with tap water.
d) Plug in the mains cable and set the main power button
(9) to the “I” position, (illuminated in red).
e) Set the steam setting to and wait until the icon
stops flashing.
f) Hold the iron over the sink or a container to collect
the water.
g) Press the steam release button (13) and gently shake
the iron. Boiling water and steam will be released,
carrying scale and/ or deposits that might be inside.
This process may take from 5 up to 10 minutes.
Please note that if you have filled the water tank to
the maximum, you do not have to continue until it is
completely empty, but just long enough so that there
are no more scale deposits appearing from your iron
hand set.
h) Set the temperature to the setting, without
pressing the steam release buttons (13-14*).
The water in the steam chamber will start evaporating.
Wait until all the water inside the chamber has been
evaporated.
i) To clean the soleplate, immediately rub off any
residue by running the hot iron over a dry cotton
cloth.
Recommended accessory
The SL45 steam station produces a high amount of
steam for best performance.
Therefore, the best additional accessory would be the
Siemens active-ironing board TN10100 / TN10200.
Cleaning & Maintenance
Attention! Risk of burns!
Always unplug the appliance from the mains supply
before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance
operation on it.
1. After ironing, disconnect the plug and allow the
appliance to cool down before cleaning.
2. Wipe the housing, handle and iron body with a damp
cotton cloth.
3. If the soleplate is soiled with dirt or scale, clean it
with a damp cotton cloth.
4. If the cloth is synthetic, it may melt due to the high
temperature on the soleplate (16). Switch off the
steam and rub off any residue immediately with a
thickly folded, dry cotton cloth.
5. Never use abrasive products or solvents. To keep
the soleplate (16) smooth, you should avoid hard
contact with metal objects. Never use a scouring
pad, or chemicals to clean the soleplate.
Storing the appliance (H)
1. Always allow the appliance to cool down before
storing it.
2. Set the main power button to the “0” position (the red
light will go off) and disconnect the mains cable.
3. Place the iron on the iron pad (2), standing on the
soleplate, and fix it by inserting the tip of the iron into
the front slot and moving the secureLock lever (10)
against the heel of the iron.
4. Store the mains cable (5) and steam hose (6) in the
storage compartment (4). Do not wrap the cords too
tight.
5. Use the iron´s handle when moving the appliance,
as shown in figure H, or use the carrying handles (3)
on either side.
