OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

EMPTYING THE IRON

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.

6.Set variable steam control to “0”.

7.Allow iron to cool in an upright position before storing.

WARNING! Use caution when emptying the iron. Burns may occur from touching hot metal surfaces, hot water or steam.

STORAGE

1.Always turn the variable steam control to “0” after you have emptied the water tank.

2.Allow the iron to cool down.

3.Always store the iron in the upright position to protect the soleplate.

4.From time to time, clean the exterior of the iron with a damp cloth and wipe dry.

5.If you use spray starch, wipe the soleplate occasionally with a soft damp cloth to prevent the build-up of deposits.

6.If the iron has not been used for a few weeks, hold the iron horizontally and allow to steam for 2 minutes before ironing.

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.

DRY IRONING

All marked settings on the temperature dial can be used for dry ironing. Slide the variable steam control lever all the down as shown in Figure 1. This will cut off the steam flow if water is in the tank.

1.Turn temperature dial to “MIN” and slide the variable steam control lever all the way down to “0”.

2.Plug the cord into a polarized, 120V AC electrical outlet. The power “ON” light will come on, indicating that the iron is receiving power.

3.Turn the temperature dial to the desired setting. (See “Ironing Guide” for a guide to temperature selection.)

4.Place iron on its heel (on a stable, protected surface) while iron is warming to desired temperature.

STEAM IRONING

WARNING! DO NOT aim iron at face, towards yourself, or anyone else while using or adjusting steam. Burns or serious injury may occur.

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.

WARNING! 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.

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.

CAUTION: Never fill the iron with fabric conditioner, starches or any other liquid, as these will damage the steam mechanism. Do not use contaminated water.

1.Turn temperature dial to “••” or “••• and slide lever all the way to the left.

2.Holding the iron at a slight angle, pour water slowly into the water filling inlet. See figure 2. Fill tank to desired level or to the “MAX” water level marking using the water filling flask. (When the iron is upright, the blue, see-through water tank allows you to gauge the amount of water.) DO NOT overfill the tank.
