Steam and Dry Iron Use and Care Guide
Emptying The Water Tank
The water tank should be emptied after each use. To do so:
1. Unplug the iron from the electrical outlet.
2. While the iron is still warm, hold the iron over a sink and allow the
iron to drain by tipping the point of the iron down.
3. Gently shake the iron to loosen any water drops that may be
trapped. The warmth of the iron should dry out any remaining
water. Note: If you empty the water tank after the iron has cooled, set the
iron in an upright position on its heel, plug it in and set the temperature
dial to maximum heat for 2 minutes. Turn temperature control dial to OFF
and variable steam dial to OFF, and unplug. Let iron cool before storing it.
Flushing
Flushing the iron is advised after every 5 usages to prevent harmful
mineral build-up that can clog the iron and prevent it from heating
and steaming properly. To flush the iron:
1. Position temperature control dial to OFF.
2. Turn variable steam dial to OFF.
3. Fill the iron’s water tank to its maximum fill line.
4. Plug the iron in and set the temperature control dial to Linen. Let
it heat for 2 minutes.
5. Turn the variable steam dial clockwise to the MAX setting.
6. Place a hand towel over the ironing surface.
7. Hold the iron horizontally 2 inches above the towel allowing steam
to flow through the vents until the water tank is emptied.
8. Pass the iron over a damp cloth to clean the soleplate.
9. When finished, turn temperature control dial to OFF and variable
steam dial to OFF and unplug. Allow iron to cool before cleaning
the exterior of the iron or storing. Use a cloth to wipe off exterior
of iron before storing.
