840173100 Ev02 12/11/07 1:11 PM Page 2 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS When using your flatiron, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following: READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING 1. Use iron only for its intended use. 2. Verify that the voltage in your home corresponds to that of your appliance. 3. To protect against risk of electric shock, do not immerse the iron in water or other liquids. 4. The iron should always be turned to OFF before plugging or unplugging from outlet. Never yank cord to disconnect from outlet; instead, grasp plug and pull to disconnect. 5. Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces. Let iron cool completely before putting away. Loop cord loosely around iron when storing. 6. Always disconnect iron from electrical outlet when filling with water or emptying and when not in use. 7. Do not operate iron with a damaged cord or if the iron has been dropped or damaged. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the iron. Call our toll-free customer service number for information on examination and repair. Incorrect reassembly can cause a risk of electric shock when the iron is used. 8. Close supervision is necessary for any appliance being used by or near children. Do not leave iron unattended while connected or on an ironing board. 9. Burns can occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water, or steam. Use caution when you turn a steam iron upside down – there may be hot water in the reservoir. SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS 1. To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another high wattage appliance on the same circuit. 2. If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, a 10-ampere cord should be used. Cords rated for less amperage may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it cannot be pulled or tripped over. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS! OTHER CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION This product is intended for household use only. WARNING! Shock Hazard: This appliance has a polarized plug (one wide blade) that reduces the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the plug by modifying the plug in any way or using an adaptor. If the plug does not fit, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet. Use the iron on an ironing board. Ironing on any other surface may damage that surface. Do not iron or vertical steam clothes that are being worn. Do not use vertical steam in the direction of people or pets. 2 840173100 Ev02 12/11/07 1:11 PM Page 3 PARTS AND FEATURES Cord Release Button* Fabric Setting Indicator Water Tank Fill Cover Spray Nozzle Water Tank Self Clean Button Soleplate Power ON Light/ Auto Shutoff Status Indicator Heel Rest Spray/Blast Buttons Retractable Cord* Temperature Selector/ Auto Shutoff Reset Button* Adjustable Steam *on selected models BEFORE FIRST USE • During first use of iron, it may appear to smoke.

Prepare iron for steam ironing, then iron over an old cloth for a few minutes while letting the iron steam. Press the Blast button several times. This will clean the vents. Then follow the Self-Clean instructions (see page 5) beginning with Step 3. • Many irons spit or sputter during the first few uses with tap water.
