manual abstract
• Use iron only for its intended use. • To protect against electric shock, do not immerse cord, plugs, or other electric parts in water or other liquids. • The iron should always be turned off before plugging into or unplugging from an outlet. Never yank cord to disconnect from outlet; instead grasp plug and pull to disconnect. • Do not allow the cord to touch hot surfaces. Let the iron cool completely before putting away. Loop cord loosely around cord wrap when storing. • Always disconnect iron from electrical outlet when filling with or emptying water, and when not in use. • Never operate this appliance if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly, if it has been dropped or damaged in any manner or dropped into water. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the iron or replace supply cord. For service information see warranty page. • Close supervision is necessary for any appliance being used by or near children. • Do not leave iron unattended while plugged in or on an ironing board. Always position iron carefully to prevent it from falling if the ironing board is accidentally moved or the cord is pulled. Always use the heel rest. • Burns can occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water, or steam. Use caution when you turn a steam iron upside down or use the surge of steam – there may be hot water in the water tank. Avoid rapid movement of the iron to minimize hot water spillage. • To reduce the risk of contact with hot water emitting from the steam vents, check appliance before each use by holding it away from body and operating steam button. SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS: • To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another high wattage appliance on the same circuit. • While use of an extension cord is not recommended, if you must use one, make sure the cord has the same or higher wattage as the appliance (wattage is stamped by the soleplate of the unit). Position the extension cord so that it cannot be pulled or tripped over. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS POLARIZED PLUG – This appliance may have a polarized plug –one blade is wider than the other. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way. 1. Never pull or yank on the cord or the appliance. 2. To insert plug, grasp it firmly and guide it into outlet. 3. To disconnect the appliance, grasp plug and remove it from outlet. 4. Before each use, inspect the cord for damage. If damage is found, do not use the appliance. 5. Let the iron cool completely before wrapping the cord. Never wrap the cord tightly around the appliance as this could place undue stress on the cord where it enters the appliance and cause it to fray and break. DO NOT OPERATE THE APPLIANCE IF THE CORD SHOWS ANY DAMAGE, IF THE APPLIANCE WORKS INTERMITTENTLY OR STOPS WORKING ENTIRELY. SPECIAL ATTENTION: This appliance is designed with a protective coating around the heating elements. When plugged in and operating for the first time, there may be momentary smoking while this coating is initially heated. This presents no danger to the user and does not indicate a defect in the unit. When using for the first time, allow the appliance to continue heating until the smoke dissipates. USING YOUR IRON Power Indicator Temperature Dial Heel Rest Cord Wrap Water Tank Max Fill Marking Non-Stick Soleplate Shot of Steam Button Spray Button Steam Control Dial Water Tank Inlet Sprayer Before first use, do the following: • Remove any stickers or protective covers from the soleplate. • Heat the iron to the maximum temperature and iron a piece of damp cloth for several minutes to remove any residue on the soleplate. • A small amount of smoke and/or odor may occur upon heating due to the release of manufacturing oils – this is normal. • Some minor expansion/contraction sounds may occur during heating and cooling – this is normal. 1) Fill the water tank: Open the tank cover and hold the iron in a slightly tilted position. Add water to the fill line. Do not exceed the “MAX” fill marking on the side of the iron. The maximum water volume is approximately 8 ounces/1 cup. Press the water tank cover closed. 2) Connect the cord to the power outlet. The blue light will illuminate. 3) Select the temperature: Turn the temperature dial to the desired fabric setting.
