How to Use
This appliance is intended for household use only.
GETTING STARTED
Remove any labels, stickers or tags attached to the body or soleplate of the iron.
Note: Use ordinary tap water for ironing. Do not use water processed through a
home softening system
Important: For optimum performance, let the iron stand for 90 seconds before
beginning to iron.
FILLING WATER TANK
1. With iron on flat surface with soleplate down, open
water-fill cover (A).
2. Tilt the iron and using a clean measuring cup, pour water
into opened chamber until water reaches the MAX level
mark on the side of the water tank. Do not overfill.
3. Close the water-fill cover.
4. Plug in the iron. The on indicator light illuminates (B). Once
the iron reaches the selected temperature, the light goes off.
The light will then cycle on an off during ironing.
Note: If you need to add water while ironing, unplug the iron
and follow above steps.
Tip: If unsure of a garment's fiber, test a small area (on an inside seam or hem)
before ironing.
3-WAY AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF
The automatic shutoff feature in your iron works as follows:
• Once the iron reaches appropriate temperature, it will turn
off after 30 seconds of inactivity if left on its soleplate or
tipped over on its side. If left vertically on its heel rest, it will
shut off after 8 minutes (C).
• The AUTO OFF light starts blinking red to let you know that
the iron has stopped heating (D).
• As soon as you pick up the iron, it will start heating
again. Wait for iron to reheat completely before resuming
operation.
SMART STEAM ® TECHNOLOGY
The Smart Steam ® system automatically produces steam when you turn the fabric-
select dial between settings 4 and 6. The higher the setting, the more powerful the
steam.
