IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1.
Read all instructions carefully.
2.
Use iron only for its intended use.
3.
To protect against risk of electrical
shock, do not immerse the iron in water
or other liquids.
4.
Never yank cord to disconnect from
outlet. Grasp plug and pull to disconnect.
5.
Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces.
Let iron cool completely before putting
away.
6.
Always disconnect iron from electrical
outlet when filling with water, emptying,
or when not in use.
7.
Do not operate iron with a damaged
cord, or after the iron has been dropped
or damaged in any manner. To avoid the
risk of electric shock, do not disassemble
the iron. Return the iron to
Euro-Pro
Operating LLC
for examination and
repair. Incorrect reassembly can cause
the 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.
10. Never use or rest iron on an unstable
surface.
11. While the iron is hot, never set iron on an
unprotected surface - even if it is on its
heel rest.
12.
CAUTION: TO PREVENT ELECTRIC
SHOCK OR OTHER INJURY,
before
filling the iron with water, make sure that
the plug is removed from the outlet.
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, use a 15-ampere cord. Cords
rated for less amperage may overheat.
Use care to arrange the cord so that it
cannot be pulled or tripped over.

POLARIZED PLUG
:
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other). As a safety feature, this plug will 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 defeat this safety feature.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
For Household Use Only
13.
WARNING: Never fill the iron with
fabric conditioner, starches or any
other solution, as these will damage
the steam mechanism. Do not use
contaminated water.
14
. CAUTION: TO AVOID FIRE,
never
leave iron unattended while it is
plugged in.
15
. CAUTION: TO PREVENT ELECTRIC
SHOCK,
never use the iron in a location
where it can fall or be pulled into water
or another liquid. If the iron falls into
water or other liquid, unplug it
immediately.
DO NOT
reach into the
water or liquid.
16
. WARNING: Never
use scouring pads,
abrasive or chemical cleaners, or
solvents to clean the exterior or
soleplate of your iron. Doing so will
scratch and/or damage the surface.
17.
CAUTION: DO NOT
aim iron at face,
towards yourself, or anyone else while
using or adjusting steam. Burns or
serious injury may occur.
18. Always store your iron standing upright,
not on the soleplate. If stored face
down, even the smallest amount of
moisture will cause the soleplate to
corrode and stain.
19.
This appliance is for household use
only.
TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM
POSSIBLE REASONS & SOLUTIONS
Iron does not heat
Some odor or small
particles come out of
steam vents of new
iron
Iron does not steam
Water droplets coming
from steam vents
•
Iron should be plugged into a 120V AC electrical
outlet only.
Make sure that the plug is securely in the socket.
•
Temperature setting too low.
Turn to higher setting.
•
This is normal.
Follow instructions for first use and allow iron to steam
through 2-3 fillings & press the steam burst button
occasionally to eliminate small white particles.
•
Water tank may be empty or water level is very low.
Add water.
•
Make sure that the fabric/temperature setting and
the variable steam control are correctly set. For
maximum steam, (setting ‘Max’ on steam control),
temperature setting should be set on ‘•••’.
•
Variable steam control dial is set on “0”.
Always allow the iron to reach the selected
temperature with the variable steam control setting
at ‘0’. Make sure the temperature setting is set in
the correct steam area, e.g. ‘•’, and the steam control is
not on ‘0’. For more steam, turn temperature dial to
higher setting, e.g. ‘•••’, and the steam control to ‘Max’.
•
If temperature setting and steam control setting are
correct and there is no steam, gently tap the
soleplate on the ironing board a few times. Move
the variable steam control from ‘0’ to ‘Max’ a few
times.
•
Iron may not be hot enough. Set temperature to the
‘Max’ position. Always allow iron sufficient time to
heat up before activating the variable steam control.
•
Overuse of steam burst. Allow more time between
each burst.
•
Iron may have been overfilled. Turn iron off,empty
water and follow instructions for filling.
•
Steam performance may be low if iron requires
seasoning. To season, use regular tap water for 1or 2
tanks until steam performance improves.
