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