Anti-Drip
This iron is designed to reduce dripping and spitting while in use. Steam is
automatically disabled when the soleplate temperature is too low to create
steam, preventing spitting or dripping.
The Anti-Drip system may make a loud clicking sound during use. This is normal
and indicates that the system is functioning correctly.
Anti-Calc System
The built-in Anti-Calc cartridge is designed to reduce the buildup of mineral
substances in the water which occurs during steam ironing, thereby extending
the life of your SINGER
®
Expert Finish™ II Iron. However, please note that the
anti-calc cartridge will not completely stop the natural process of lime
scale buildup.

up in the steam chamber. It is recommended that this function be performed at

used.

WATER TO BE EJECTED FROM THE SOLEPLATE. TAKE ALL PROPER
PRECAUTIONS AND HOLD IRON AWAY FROM BODY. STEAM AND WATER
ARE VERY HOT AND CAN CAUSE BURNS.
