Care and Cleaning (continued)

Soleplate

1.Never iron over zippers, pins, metal rivets, or snaps, as these may scratch the soleplate.

2.To clean occasional build-up on the soleplate, wipe with a sudsy cloth. Do not use abrasive cleansers or metal scouring pads.

3.Always store iron upright in the heel rest position.

Self-Clean

To keep the steam vents clear of any build-up, follow these instructions each time you iron using steam.

1.Turn Temperature Settings to OFF ( O ) and set Adjustable Steam Knob to DRY. Fill iron with water to 1⁄2 of its maximum capacity.

2.Turn Temperature Settings to Linen setting and let iron heat for 2 minutes. Keep Adjustable Steam on DRY.

3.Turn Temperature Settings to OFF ( O ). Unplug iron and hold over a sink with soleplate facing down.

4.Turn Adjustable Steam to MAX, while pressing Self Clean button often. Boiling water and steam will flow out of steam vents. Allow all water to drain from iron.

5.Gently move iron front to back to allow water to clean entire soleplate area.

6.If water still remains inside of soleplate, reheat iron as indicated in Step 2. Boiling water and steam could still flow out of steam vents.
