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, see-through water tank allows you to gauge the amount of water.) DO NOT overfill the tank.

Fig. 2

3.Plug the cord into a polarized, 120V AC electrical outlet.

4.Turn the temperature dial to any of the temperatures within the steam band and allow the iron to heat for approximately 2 minutes before ironing. Place iron on its heel (on a stable, protected surface) while the iron is warming to the desired temperature.

5.Turn the variable steam control to the right to increase the amount of steam. (See figure 3) When using extra steam, the iron uses more water and it may be necessary to fill the tank more often. For refilling the iron with water follow the steps listed above.

For Steam Ironing

6.Steam is produced as soon as the iron is held in the horizontal position. Steam will stop coming out when the iron is put on its heel in a vertical position or by turning the steam control dial to "0".

BLAST OF STEAM

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

The blast-of-steam button is useful when ironing denim, cotton, and linens. It provides extra, sudden blasts of steam which aid in removing stubborn wrinkles.

The blast-of-steam feature can be used with Dry or Steam ironing as desired.

1.Make sure the water tank is at least 1/2 filled with water.

2.Set the temperature dial. Place the iron on its heel (on a stable, protected surface) and allow it to heat for approximately 2 minutes.

3.With the iron in a horizontal position, press the blast of steam button several times to prime the pump. (Fig. 4)

••Use moderate settings for wool, silks, and blends.

•••Use high settings for cottons and linens.

NOTE: Before starting to iron delicate fabrics, it is best to first test the temperature of the iron on a hem or an inside seam.

AUTOMATIC SHUT-OFF

The auto shut-off safety function of your iron is designed to engage after approx. 7 minutes of non-use. The auto shut-off indicator light will flash when the auto shut-off has activated. To reset your iron and continue ironing follow these steps.

1)Lift the iron.

2)Holding the iron horizontally in front of you, gently rock the iron back and forth several times. This motion will reset the safety switch inside the iron.

Do Not Shake the Iron.

The red temperature ready light will illuminate when the auto shut-off system has been reset. Allow time for the iron to re-heat. The red temperature indicator light will go out when the iron is ready for use.
