IRONING CHART
BEFORE FIRST USE
NOTE: Before starting to iron delicate
fabrics, it is best to first test the
temperature of the iron on a hem or an
inside seam.
To select iron temperature, align
temperature selected on dial with
the indicator on the water tank.
Remove any labels, stickers or tags which may be attached to the body or
soleplate of the iron before using the iron.
Read all instructions for use carefully. Always follow the Important Safeguards.

Before you start using your iron, follow the instructions in the manual and do the
following in order to eliminate any odor and small white residue particles and to
ensure optimum steam performance.
• Fill the iron with regular tap water.
• Set the temperature control dial to its highest setting, the spray/burst of steam
button to the steam setting and the steam control knob to the lowest steam
setting.
• When the thermostat light goes off to indicate that the iron has reached the
selected temperature, set the steam control knob to the highest setting.
• Keep the iron in a horizontal position and allow it to steam until the water runs
out.
• Press the spray/burst of steam button to eliminate white residue particles.
• Repeat this procedure through 2 or 3 fillings.
IMPORTANT
The first time an iron is used, some odor and small white particles may come
out of the steam vents. This is perfectly normal and will cease to occur after the
iron has been in use for a short while.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Before using your iron, check the voltage and type of plug that is required for
your location. If necessary, readjust the dual voltage switch according to local
voltage: 110V - 120V or 220V - 240V. This is accomplished by sliding the dual
voltage control switch located in the rear of the iron to the corresponding
voltage setting.
Caution: Always disconnect the iron before adjusting the dual voltage
switch to the correct voltage setting.
