[Albert]

Keeping your Trisa 7957 Series Steam Iron clean is key to keeping it working its best and lasting longer. Here's a simple guide to cleaning it, based on the manufacturer's recommendations:

1. General Cleaning:

   • Wipe the outside of the iron with a cloth that's just damp, and then dry it completely.
   • Take off any stickers or protective coverings.
   • Before you use it for the first time, let the iron produce steam to clear out any manufacturing residue.

2. Cleaning the Soleplate (the bottom part):

   • Iron an old piece of cotton or linen fabric to clean the soleplate. This helps to remove any buildup.
   • Wipe off any starch or other deposits with a soft, damp cloth. Always wipe in the direction of the soleplate.

3. Using the Self-Clean Function:

   • Fill the water tank with regular tap water.
   • Plug in the iron and let it heat up.
   • Unplug the iron and hold it over a sink.
   • Press and hold the Self-Clean button while moving the iron back and forth to clean the steam vents.
   • After cleaning, empty any remaining water from the tank.

4. Important Reminders:

   • Always unplug your Trisa 7957 Series Steam Iron and let it cool down before cleaning.
   • Never clean the iron under running water or use harsh cleaners like scourers or solvents.

Regular cleaning ensures your Trisa 7957 Series Steam Iron continues to deliver excellent ironing results.
