To properly clean the soleplate of your Russell Hobbs RHC280 Advanced Glide Iron and maintain its optimal performance, follow these steps. First, unplug the iron and allow it to cool completely. For general cleaning, wipe the exterior surfaces with a damp cloth. To remove stubborn spots from the soleplate, use a small amount of vinegar. To combat scale build-up and ensure longevity, utilize the self-clean function, especially if you live in an area with hard water. It's recommended to use this function at least monthly, or more frequently if you have hard water. To activate the self-clean function: fill the water reservoir to the maximum level, set the temperature control to its highest setting and the steam control to the steam setting, and place the iron on its heel. Plug the iron into the power outlet and wait until the indicator light turns off. Hold the iron over a sink or bowl, soleplate facing down. Press and hold the self-clean button while gently moving the iron back and forth over the basin. The iron will release steam and water, flushing out scale and debris. Release the self-clean button once the water reservoir is empty. These cleaning methods will help keep your Russell Hobbs RHC280 Advanced Glide Iron in top condition.
