protected surface) while iron is
warming to desired temperature.
IRONING HINTS EMPTYING THE IRON
This appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE
ONLY and may be plugged into any
120V AC polarized electrical outlet. Do
not use any other type of outlet.
WARNING!
To prevent fire, do
not leave iron unattended while
connected.
1. Always empty iron after each use.
2. When finished using the iron, turn
the variable steam control to“0” and
the temperature control dial to "MIN".
3. Unplug the iron from the electrical
outlet.
4. Set variable steam control to "MAX".
5. Turn the iron upside down over the
sink with the tip pointing downward
and allow the water to flow from the
opening. See figure 11.
6. Set variable steam control to "0".
7. Allow iron to cool in an upright
position before storing.
• Sort articles to be ironed according
to the type of fabric. This will reduce
the need to adjust the temperature
for different types of garments.
• If you are not sure of the fiber
content of a garment, test a small
area such as a seam or inside hem
section before ironing a visible area.
Start with a low temperature setting
and gradually increase to find the
best setting.
• When reducing the temperature to
iron sensitive fabrics, allow
approximately 2 minutes for the iron
to cool to the new temperature
setting.
• Fabrics such as velour, wool, linen
and silk are best ironed with an
ironing cloth to prevent shine marks.
BEFORE FIRST USE
Remove any labels, stickers or tags
which may be attached to the body or
the soleplate of the iron before using
the iron.
Before you start using your iron, read all
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.
1. Fill the iron with regular tap water.
(See page 6 for filling instructions.)
2. Set the temperature control dial to its
highest setting and the variable
steam control to “0”.
3. When the temperature ready light
goes off, the iron has reached the
selected temperature. Set the
variable steam control to the highest
setting.
4. Keep the iron in a horizontal position
and allow it to steam until the water
runs out. Press the burst of steam
button to eliminate white residue
particles.
5. Repeat this procedure for two or
three fillings of water.
STEAM IRONING
CAUTION!
DO NOT aim iron
at face, towards yourself, or
anyone else while using or
adjusting steam. Burns or
serious injury may occur.
WARNING! Use caution when
emptying the iron. Burns may
occur from touching hot metal
surfaces, hot water or steam.
Fig. 11
WARNING! Before filling the
iron with water, be sure the
iron is not plugged into the
electrical outlet. The iron may
be filled with water while it is
hot.
CAUTION! TO PREVENT THE
RISK OF BURNS, use caution
when filling iron with water.
Burns can occur from touching
hot metal parts, hot water, or
steam.
DRY IRONING
All marked settings on the temperature
dial can be used for dry ironing. Slide
the variable steam control lever all the
way down as shown in Figure 1. This
will cut off the steam flow if water is in
the tank.
NOTE: Because of the soleplate design,
ordinary tap water may be used with this
iron. However, in very hard water areas,
we recommend using distilled or
demineralized water.
For Dry Ironing:
0
Fig. 1
WARNING: Never fill the iron
with fabric conditioner,
starches or any other liquid, as
these will damage the steam
mechanism. Do not use
contaminated water.
