IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 

When using your iron, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

• READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
• Use iron only for its intended use.
• To protect against a risk of electric shock, do not immerse the iron in water or other liquids.
• The iron should always be turned to the minimum (min) setting before plugging or unplugging from outlet. Never pull on the cord to disconnect from the outlet; instead grasp plug and pull to disconnect.
• Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces. Let iron cool completely before putting away. Loop cord loosely around iron when storing.
• Always disconnect iron from electrical outlet when filling with water or emptying, and when not in use.
• Do not operate the iron if it has been dropped, if there are visible signs of damage to the iron or its cord, or if it is leaking. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the iron; take it to a qualified service person for examination and repair, or call the appropriate toll-free number on the cover of this manual. Incorrect reassembly can cause a risk of electric shock when the iron is used.
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
• 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.
• 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 reservoir. Avoid rapid movement of iron to minimize hot water spillage.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
• The iron must be used and rested on a stable surface.
• When placing the iron on its stand, ensure that the surface on which the stand is placed is stable

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS

• To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another high-wattage appliance on the same circuit.
• If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, use a cord rated 15 amps or higher. A cord rated for less amperage could result in a risk of fire or electric shock due to overheating. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it cannot be pulled or tripped over.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

POLARIZED PLUG

This appliance has 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.

TAMPER-RESISTANT SCREW

Warning: This appliance is equipped with a tamper-resistant screw to prevent removal of the outer cover. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not attempt to remove the outer cover.
There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Repair should be done only by authorized service personnel.

CARE AND CLEANING

This product contains no user serviceable parts. Refer service to qualified service personnel.

CLEANING OUTSIDE SURFACES 

1. Mare sure iron is unplugged and has cooled completely.
2. Wipe the soleplate and outer surfaces with a soft cloth dampened with water. Add gentle household detergent, like dishwashing liquid, if desired. Never use abrasives, heavy-duty cleaners, vinegar or scouring pads that may scratch or discolor the iron.
3. After cleaning, turn iron back on. Steam iron over an old cloth to remove any residue from the steam vents.
4. When finished cleaning, turn iron off and allow time to cool before storing.

AUTO CLEAN™ SYSTEM 

To keep the steam vents free of any buildup, follow these instructions about once a month.

1. Fill the water tank well below the MAX fill line. Plug in the iron.
2. Select the Wool Fabric setting (Number 5) on the Temp dial and stand the iron on its heel while it preheats.
3. Once the blue light is no longer blinking and the iron has reached the desired temperature; turn it off and then unplug it from the outlet.
4. Hold iron over a sink with the soleplate facing down.
5. Move the variable steam selector dial over to the Auto Clean™ setting and hold it in that position. Be careful, as hot water and steam will come out of the vents.
6. Continue to hold the dial in the position until all of the water has emptied. If necessary, move the iron side-to-side and front-to-back to aid the process.
7. When finished, release the dial from the Auto Clean™ position and place the iron on its heel rest.
8. Plug the iron back in and allow it to heat for about 2 minutes to dry out any remaining water.

STORING YOUR IRON 

1.  Once the iron is turned off, unplug it from the outlet and allow it to cool.
2. Check that the variable steam selector is set to dry.
3. Wrap the cord loosely around the iron.
4. Store vertically on its heel to prevent water leaking from the soleplate

IRONING TIPS AND TRICKS

• The iron can be filled with ordinary tap water; if your water is hard or soft, you may want to use distilled water. Do not use water processed through a home softening system.
• For optimum performance, allow the iron to stand on the heel rest about two minutes before beginning to iron.
• If you’re unsure of the fabric’s content, test a small area (on the inside seam or hem) before you proceed to iron the entire garment or cloth.
• Whenever ironing a garment with mixed fabrics, select the fabric setting for the most delicate fabric.
  For example, when ironing a shirt that is 65% cotton and 35% polyester, use the polyester setting.
• Whenever temperature settings are changed to a higher or lower temperature, allow the iron to stand a minute or so to allow heat up or cool down. Test garment by pressing a small hidden area to make sure temperature of iron is correct.
