Caring and Cleaning

Iron Storage

1.The water tank of your iron should be emptied after each use. Turn Temperature Control Dial to OFF (O). Unplug the iron and hold over a sink. Slowly tilt pointed end of iron down over sink. Water will run out of water tank opening.

2.After iron is complete cool, wrap cord loosely around iron and store in upright position. Do not store iron laying flat on soleplate.

Soleplate

1.Never iron over zippers, pins, metal rivets, or snaps, as these may scratch the soleplate.

2.To clean occasional build-up on the soleplate, wipe with a sudsy cloth. Do not use abrasive cleansers or metal scouring pads.

3.Always store iron upright in the heel rest position.
