Electric iron maintenance method

Electric iron maintenance method

1. See if the voltage matches

The mains voltage in China is 220 volts. When using an electric iron for the first time, you should check whether the voltage of the iron matches it. Especially for imported products, the voltage may be 240 volts or 110 volts. If you buy a 240 volt electric iron accidentally, the power of the product cannot be fully exerted, which will affect the ironing effect due to insufficient heat. Using a 110 volt electric iron will damage the electrical circuit and may even cause danger or even endanger personal safety.

2. Use water with less impurities

Although some products claim to have a descaling function, if conditions permit, water with less impurities should be used, such as distilled water or cold boiled water. If tap water is used frequently, the scale formed will not be completely eliminated, and it will easily block the steam injection holes.

3. Pour the remaining water from the clean water tank

After each use, the remaining water in the water tank must be cleaned, and then the electricity will be evaporated to spray out the residual water, otherwise the water will flow out from the bottom plate after cooling, and the minerals in the water will adhere when it is heated again On the bottom plate, over time will erode the bottom plate, causing damage.

4. Clean at least once a month

To make the steam iron durable, you should use its "auto-cleaning" function to remove the scale accumulated in the iron at least once a month, and store it after it is completely dry, and it is best to store it upright so that its use can be extended. life.
