GETTING TO KNOW YOUR IRON
USER MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Before using your SHARK Sting Ray
Iron, remove any labels, stickers or tags
that may be attached to the body or
soleplate of the iron.
When turned on for the first time, your
new iron may emit an odor for up to 10
minutes. This is due to the initial
heating of the materials used in making
the iron.
The odor is safe and should not reoccur
after initial heating.
Also, before ironing with steam for the
first time, allow iron to heat, hold in a
horizontal position and hit the burst of
steam button several times. The iron
may emit some small particles from the
steam holes. This is normal and will
clear after pressing the burst of steam
button several times.
EMPTYING THE IRON
4. Set variable steam control to “MAX”.
5. Turn the iron upside down over the
sink with the tip pointing downward
and allow the water to flow from the
opening. (See fig. 8)
6. Set variable steam control to “No
steam position”.
7. Allow iron to cool in an upright
position before storing.
1. Always empty iron after each use.
2. When finished using the iron, turn
the variable steam control to “No
steam position” and the temperature
control dial to “MIN”.
3. Unplug the iron from the electrical
outlet.
WARNING!
Use caution when
emptying the iron. Burns may occur
from touching hot metal surfaces,
hot water or steam.
