Decalcifying / Self-cleaning
Cleaning the anti-calc. valve on the steam
regulator
During the time the sole plate is cooling down we
recommend to decalcify the anti-calc. valve in
the following way:
1. Put a small quantity of white vinegar (not
vinegar essence) or lemon juice into a glass or
bowl.
Ironing Guide
Guarantee
We grant a 1 year guarantee on the product
commencing on the date of purchase.
Braun ProGlide-jet irons have a built-in system
(anti-calc. valve) to prevent calcification. It allows
you to clean residues from the steam chamber.
Do not use commercial decalcifiers; they may
damage the sole plate. We recommend to use
the self-cleaning function every 3 months.
To begin ironing, it is best to start with fabrics
requiring a lower temperature (e. g. synthetics),
and continue with those requiring a higher
temperature (e. g. cotton, linen).
Silk and silk-like synthetics tend to waterspot,
therefore before using the water spray feature,
test it on an inconspicuous spot first.
Within the guarantee period we will eliminate,
free of charge, any defects in the appliance
resulting from faults in material or workmanship
either by repairing, or exchanging parts or
exchanging the whole appliance as we may
choose.
2. Immerse just the bot-
tom part of the valve in
the liquid, wait till it is
decalcified and care-
fully brush of remain-
ing residue (E) .

Not covered by this guarantee: damage arising
from improper use or storage (operation with
incorrect current/voltage, plugging it into an

have a negligible effect on the value or operation
of the appliance.
