7. Turn the variable steam dial 90° counter-clockwise to maximum
steam position. Steam will begin to come through the vents of the
soleplate.
For best results, check garment labels for the temperature and steam setting
recommended by the fabric manufacturer, or consult the enclosed garment
care tips pamphlet for additional information.
To prevent damaging garments from too hot of an iron, it is best to first iron
garments that require a low temperature. If you should need to switch from
a high setting to a lower temperature, for example Cotton to Nylon,
allow the iron about 5 minutes to reach the lower temperature.
Tips: If you are unsure of a garment’s fabric content, start on a low setting
and test the iron on an area of the garment that does not show, such as a
seam. Gradually increase the heat setting until wrinkles remove without
damaging the fabric. Sort out the garments to be ironed according to the
type of fabric. This will minimize the frequency of temperature adjustment
for different garments.
To prevent shine, iron dark garments or those made of silk, acetate or rayon
inside out.
USING AS A DRY IRON
The iron can be used on the dry setting with or without water in the
reservoir. However, it is best to avoid having the reservoir too full of water
while dry ironing.
1. Position temperature dial to MIN, lowest setting.
2. Turn the variable steam dial to O for no steam.
3. Stand the iron on its heel in an upright position on a heat resistant
surface and plug into a 120V ~ 60 Hz outlet.
4. Turn the temperature dial clockwise to the desired setting.
5. When the ready light goes off, the iron has reached the desired
temperature.
6. When finished, turn temperature dial to MIN, lowest setting and
unplug. Allow the iron to cool before cleaning the exterior or storing.
NOTE: During ironing, the ready light may cycle on again which indicates
the iron is heating to maintain the proper temperature.
CAUTION: If the iron is hot, DO NOT fill it with water.
USING AS A STEAM IRON
When using as a steam iron, be sure the temperature setting on the
temperature dial is on the maximum steam setting . Do not use any
other setting for steam ironing.
1. Unplug the iron from the outlet.
2. Fill the water reservoir, see FILLING THE WATER RESERVOIR.
