How to descale my steam iron?

I have lost the manual for my Russell Hobbs RHTC101. I need to descale (clean) my steam iron.
Pat, March 2009
fill the iron with 1/2 water and 1/2 distilled vinegar

switch the iron on and whilst holding the iron over a sink keep pressing the steam button to get the water and vinegar mixture through the system

when its all passed out put another mixture of the same solution in the iron and leave it over night and then rinse throughly 3 times with clean water
