SELF-CLEANING
1. BURST OF STEAM
The Burst of Steam provides
extra, sudden blasts of steam
which aid in removing stubborn
wrinkles from fabrics such as
denim, cotton or linen.
7. BUILT-IN ANTI-CALCIUM
FILTER
Prevents calcium build-up
and prolongs the life of the
iron.
1. Always turn the variable steam
control to “0” after you have
emptied the water tank.
2. Allow the iron to cool down.
3. Always store the iron in the upright
position to protect the soleplate.
4. From time to time, clean the exterior
of the iron with a damp cloth and
wipe dry.
5. If you use spray starch, wipe the
soleplate occasionally with a soft
damp cloth to prevent the build-up of
deposits.
6. If the iron has not been used for a
few weeks, hold the iron horizontally
and allow to steam for 2 minutes
before ironing.
In order to remove calcium and built-up
particles, the self-cleaning system should be
run at least once a month.
Fill the water beaker provided halfway
and then pour into the water reservoir.
Set the variable steam control to the no
steam position.
Insert the main plug into the wall socket.
Set the temperature control dial to the
maximum temperature.
Wait until the thermostat light goes off and
steam iron has reached preset
temperature.
Remove the plug from the wall socket.
Hold the steam iron horizontally over a
sink.
Turn the variable steam control to
“Self-Clean ” position. Hot water and
steam will be emitted from the soleplate.
Swing the steam iron lightly back and forth
gently to allow lime and dust particles to
come out.
When the water reservoir is empty, shift
the variable steam control from “Self-
Clean” position to “0”.
Stand the iron upright and insert the plug
into the wall socket to let the iron heat up
again.
Move the iron over a clean cotton cloth to
clean the soleplate and let the remaining
water on the soleplate evaporate.
8. STAINLESS STEEL
SOLEPLATE
Provides maximum glide-
ability and heat retention.
2. ATOMIZER SPRAY
BUTTON
Pressing this Button provides a
defined jet of spray which gently
moistens fabric.
9. PIVOT CORD
For left or right handed use.
Pivots up and down;
prevents dragging along the
fabric. The flexible cord
protector protects the cord
from fraying.
3. VARIABLE STEAM
CONTROL
Minimum to maximum steaming for
different materials. Self cleaning
feature flushes internal sole plate
with water.
WARNING: The anti-drip
function reduces water
dripping and water stains. It
does not prevent water
dripping or water stains if you
press the steam burst button
too often or if temperature is
too low. The amount of water
droplets will eventually
decrease after iron is used for
2 to 3 tankfuls of steaming
and ironing.

helps reduce water spots by
cutting of water flow when
the iron temperature is too
low to build sufficient steam.
