1 Make sure the water tank is at least 1/2
filled with water.

ture setting after reading the garment

can heat up for approximately 2
minutes.
4 Press the steam burst button while
holding the iron horizontally or
vertically. Give an interval of 3
seconds of each burst. Overuse of

spitting or weak steam performance.

cool before storing.
The Shark
®
Rapido™ Electronic Iron is
equipped with an electronic auto-off
feature. The electronic auto-off
switches the iron off if it has been
unmoved in any position (sideways,
flat or upright) for approximately 7-9
minutes. The auto-off light will turn red
on the LED display panel when the iron
switches off. To turn the iron back on,
just gently rock the iron back and forth
several times until the “Power ON”
light is re-illuminated. Press the
Electronic Temperature Control to
reset the temperature to the desired
setting. The iron might have to warm
up for a minute if the auto-off feature
was activated for an extended time.

useful to remove wrinkles from

CAUTION: Do not aim iron at yourself
or anyone else while using the steam
burst feature. Be careful, burns or
serious injury may occur.
CAUTION:
Never iron or steam
clothes while they are being worn.
If the tank runs dry, always make sure
