Can I descale a Philips Careez Azur 4310 Iron?

Am about to use Comfort Easy ironing solution but it says to descale my iron first. So I was about to do that but the descaler stuff says to check if my iron is one that I can / should descale. I have a Philips Careeza Azur 4310 iron. Does anyone know if it is a type that shouldn't be descaled??

SOURCE: Hi, i have a Bosch TDS2551GB steam generator iron.

Hi, Descaling is simply a process where the limestone that is deposited in any water cooking device is removed.
Have a look inside your electric kettle to see how much of a problem ypou have in your area.
If you have a serious problem & your kettle element is totally covered up with a whitish coating, I suggest you buy a can of commercial descaling agent.
If not, or iof you prefer home remedies, get a bottle of white vinegar.
Empty your kettle & pour a bit of vinegar onto the limestone. If it boils & foams, it is being dissolved. Replace the vinegar everytime it stops or slows down. Look at the results. You can speed it up by heating the kettle. Do not boil the kettle with vinegar. (Weak acid) Rather dilute it 50-50 I then boil. Or, just boi;l some water & throw it out. Then put the acid on. once you figuted out what process is suitable for getting rid of your areas's limestne, then applie your knowledge to your Bosh.
Just let the acid stand inside it overnight, or get more drastic if neccessary.

Black marks on my azur performer plus iron soleplate

Margaret, Faultless brand makes a cleaner specifically for this purpose. Inexpensive and easy just open tube put it on cleaning rag and iron the rag for 2-3 mins. I learned about this stuff while managing a hotel - trust me our irons took a beating- this cut replacement costs by over 70% Around 3-5 bucks for a two-pak one tube per cleaning. Hope this helps

I need to descale my iron and don't have any instruction manual.

Hi, Brown water and whitescale are often the result of the water you use in the iron... If you have scale, white vinegar will clean that... For brown water, empty the iron, rinse out the insides with bottled water, and then use the bottled water instead...

My Philips steam iron Easy Care 3232 oozes brown liquid through holes when used on steam. How can I clean it?

Periodic Descaling of the iron will help reduce this.
Mineral deposits in the water will remain inside the iron after being converted to steam. This builds up over time as scales unless cleaned.

For descaling instruction, refer to manufacturer.

Fill tank with water and put steam setting to 0.Set temp pial to hottest setting. Let the iron heat up till the light in the hand goes out. Switch off power and hold iron over sink. Push down and hold descale button until all the steam and water has gone from iron. Wipe plate and heat up iron again with no water in it.
