•When reducing the temperature to iron sensitive fabrics, allow approximately 2 minutes for the iron to cool to the new temperature setting.

•Fabrics such as velour, wool, linen and silk are best ironed with an ironing cloth to prevent shine marks.

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. See figure 11.

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.

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.

BEFORE FIRST USE

Remove any labels, stickers or tags which may be attached to the body or the soleplate of the iron before using the iron.

Before you start using your iron, read all the instructions in the manual and do the following in order to eliminate any odor and small white residue particles and to ensure optimum steam performance.

1.	Fill the iron with regular tap water.
	(See page 6 for filling instructions.)
2.	Set the temperature control dial to its
	highest setting and the variable
	steam control to “0”.
3.	When the temperature ready light
	goes off, the iron has reached the
	selected temperature. Set the
	variable steam control to the highest
	setting.
4.	Keep the iron in a horizontal position
	and allow it to steam until the water

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

CAUTION! 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.

3.To remove the super-size soleplate, lift the soleplate clamp and remove the iron.

IRONING HINTS

WARNING! To prevent fire, do

not leave iron unattended whileFig. 11 connected.

•Sort articles to be ironed according to the type of fabric. This will reduce the need to adjust the temperature for different types of garments.

•If you are not sure of the fiber content of a garment, test a small area such as a seam or inside hem section before ironing a visible area. Start with a low temperature setting and gradually increase to find the best setting.

runs out. Press the burst of steam

button to eliminate white residue

particles.

5. Repeat this procedure for two or

three fillings of water.

DRY IRONING

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

For Dry Ironing:

CAUTION! 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.

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