BEFORE THE FIRST USE
• When turned on for the first time, your new iron may give off a slight odor for up
to ten minutes. This is due to the initial heating of the materials used. It is safe,
not detrimental to the performance of the product, and will not recur.
• Prior to first use, clean steam vents using the SHOT OF STEAM®feature.
After cleaning vents, run iron over an all-cotton cloth to remove any residue.
• When not ironing, always have steam dial turned to “0” No steam .
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
DRY IRONING

the auto off light will iluminate.
• Turn the temperature dial to the desired setting (refer to Ironing Guide for
recommended settings). While iron is heating, place iron on heel rest on a stable,
protected surface.
• Set the steam dial on ( ) to prevent steam flow if water is in the tank.
STEAM IRONING

Tap water maybe used due to the special design of this iron.
However, in areas with very hard water, distilled or demineralized water is recommended.
• 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. While heating, place iron
on heel rest on a stable, protected surface.
• Adjust Steam Dial to desired level of steaming.
SHOT OF STEAM®FEATURE
• The SHOT OF STEAM®feature provides an extra burst of steam for deep penetration
of stubborn wrinkles. The SHOT OF STEAM®feature can be used with dry or steam
ironing provided the tank is at least 1/2 full of water and the Temperature Dial is set
within the steam band.
• Allow the iron to heat for approximately 2 minutes.
• Press the SHOT OF STEAM®button several times to prime the pump.
• Pump SHOT OF STEAM®button another three to four times in order to clean the unit.
The SHOT OF STEAM®feature is now ready for use. The SHOT OF STEAM®feature
can be used continously with just a short pause between shots. The SHOT OF STEAM®
feature is most effective with the iron held in a horizontal position just above the fabric
being ironed.
• If the tank runs dry, unplug the iron and refill with water. The iron may be filled with
water while it is hot.

• To clean the soleplate, allow iron to cool and wipe with a soft cloth using
a mild vinegar solution.
• Do not use scouring pads, abrasives or chemical cleaning solvents as they
may damage the finish.
