SPRAY MIST® FEATURE

The SPRAY MIST® feature is a powerful water spray mist that dampens the fabric to aid in removing wrinkles from heavy fabrics and for setting creases.

To use the SPRAY MIST® Feature:

Press the SPRAY MIST® button firmly.

SHOT OF STEAM® FEATURE (Select Models Only)

The SHOT OF STEAM® feature provides an extra burst of steam for deep penetration of stubborn wrinkles. You can use this feature while Dry or Steam ironing, but the water reservoir must be at least 1/4 full of water.

To use the SHOT OF STEAM® Feature:

Place the iron on top of the wrinkle and press the SHOT OF STEAM® button each time you would like an extra burst of steam. The SHOT OF STEAM® feature may be used continuously with just a short pause between shots.

VERTICAL STEAM (Select Models Only)

The vertical steam feature allows your iron to function as a garment steamer.

TIP: When using the vertical steam on clothing, hang the clothing on a clothes hanger for best results. Hanging curtains and drapes may also be steamed.

To use Vertical Steam:

2.Hold the iron in a vertical position, with the iron close to but not touching the fabric you want to steam.

3.With your other hand, pull the fabric tight.

4.Press the SHOT OF STEAM® button for approximately 3-second intervals as you move the iron across the wrinkled area.

WARNING: To prevent the risk of burns, keep your hand away from the area being steamed.

WARNING: DO NOT steam garments while wearing them; this may result in injuries.
