being steamed.
WARNING: DO NOT steam garments while wearing them; this may result in injuries.
Auto-Off Feature
Turns iron off if left in one position too long to avoid accidents.
If you leave the iron:
• In a horizontal position without moving it, or accidentally tip the iron over, it will
automatically stop heating after 30 seconds. The wait/ready light will blink red to let
you know that the iron has stopped heating.
• In a vertical position (on its heel rest) without moving it, the iron will automatically turn
off after 15 minutes. The wait/ready light will blink red to let you know that the iron has
stopped heating.
IMPORTANT: When the auto-off feature has been activated, the unit will beep 6 times
and the indicator light will blink.
To reset the iron: Move iron back and forth and reheat until the “Ready” indicator light
turns solid blue.
WARNING: Motion Smart
®
Auto-Off is a safety feature, not a recommended means for
turning your iron off. See “Caring for Your Iron After Use” for information on turning off
your iron and storing it safely between use.
Caring for Your Iron After Use
Turning Off Your Iron: Turn the Steam Lever to (Dry) and press the Fabric Select
Buttons until OFF is illuminated. Unplug the iron from the power source.
WARNING: NEVER yank the power cord when unplugging the iron. This can damage the
cord.
Storing Your Iron
1. Turn off iron following instructions above. Allow the iron to cool.
2. Empty water reservoir completely after each use. To do so, unplug the iron, turn the
iron upside down, open the fill hole cover, and allow water to flow from the fill hole.
Shake the iron gently to remove trapped water drops.
3. Loosely loop the power cord around the heel rest and store the iron on its heel rest.
IMPORTANT: Wrapping the cord around the iron too tightly can damage the cord.
Maintaining Your Iron
Cleaning the Soleplate

accumulate.
To clean the Soleplate: Do not immerse the iron in liquids. Allow the iron to cool and
then wipe it with a soft, damp cloth.
WARNING: DO NOT use abrasive cleansers, scouring pads or vinegar to clean the
soleplate. This will damage the finish. Run the iron over an all-cotton cloth to remove any
residue.
Using The Self-Cleaning Feature: You should use the Self-Cleaning feature once a
month to maintain the optimal performance of your iron.
