Please Read Before First Use:
• During first use of the iron, it may appear to smoke. This
will stop and does not indicate a defect or hazard.
• Many irons spit or sputter during the first few uses with
tap water. This happens as the steam chamber becomes
conditioned. This will stop after a few uses.
• Steam vents should be cleared before first use. See the
“Self-Clean” section on page 6 for more information.
CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION
This product is a household-type iron.
This appliance is equipped with a polarized plug. This type of plug
has one blade wider than the other. The plug will fit into an electrical
outlet only one way. This is a safety feature intended to help reduce
the risk of electrical shock. If you are unable to insert the plug into
the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit,
contact a qualified electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do
not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug by
modifying the plug in any way.
Use the iron on an ironing board. Ironing on any other surface may
damage that surface.

1
2 cup) of ordinary tap water
