Thermocolor™ Technology: As the temperature changes… So does the color!

This Iron features a lighted Water Tank that glows in different colors to let you know when the desired temperature has been reached. When the Iron is heating up or the temperature setting has been adjusted, the Water Tank will cycle through the colors, indicating changes in actual ironing temperature.

When the Iron is first plugged in, the Water Tank glows blue, the lowest heat setting. The color-coded Temperature Control Dial shows the progression in color as the Iron heats from blue to green, then to lilac, and finally to red -- the maximum heat setting.

Ironing Tips

•For best results, check garment labels for the temperature and steam setting recommended by the fabric manufacturer.

•If you are unsure of a garment’s fabric content, start on a low setting and test the Iron on an area of the garment that does not show, such as a seam. Gradually increase the heat setting until wrinkles remove without damaging the fabric.

•To freshen up garments made of velvet, felt, suede or velour, hold the steaming Iron horizontally 2 inches (5 cm) above the fabric for a gentle steaming. Make sure the Iron does not come in contact with the fabric.

•To prevent shine, iron dark garments or those made of silk, acetate or rayon inside out.

•For quick and easy reference, a condensed fabric guide is imprinted on the Heel Rest of the Iron (see illustration below).
