5. Turn the temperature control dial to STEAM. Diagram 2.
6. Allow approximately 2 minutes for the iron to reach the desired tempera-
ture. (The ready light will turn off.)
7. Turn the variable steam dial counter clockwise to the desired amount of
steam. Diagram 3. As soon as the iron is held horizontally, steam will flow
through the vents. If the iron does not steam, gently tap the soleplate on
the ironing surface. Placing the iron on its heel in an upright position inter-
rupts the flow of steam.
8. When finished, turn temperature control dial to MIN, lowest setting and
variable steam dial to lowest setting, and unplug. Allow to cool before
cleaning the exterior of the iron and storing.
CAUTION: Avoid coming in contact with escaping steam.
FILLING THE WATER TANK
1. Unplug the iron before filling.
2. Turn the variable steam dial to the lowest setting. Diagram 3.
3. Hold the iron upright but slightly tipped.
4. Using a measuring cup, slowly pour water into the water fill hole opening.
Diagram 4.
5. Check see-through water reservoir to see if iron is filled to maximum fill
line. Diagram 5.
Note: Your iron is designed to use tap water. DO NOT use water from home
water softening systems because such water may contain minerals that may
harm the iron.
EMPTYING THE WATER TANK
The water tank should be emptied after each use. To do so:
1. Unplug the iron from the electrical outlet.
2. While the iron is still warm, hold the iron over a sink and allow the iron to
drain by tipping the point of the iron down.
3. Gently shake the iron to loosen any water drops that may be trapped.The
warmth of the iron should dry out any remaining water.
Note: If you empty the water tank after the iron has cooled, set the iron in an
upright position on its heel, plug it in and set the temperature dial to maximum
heat for 2 minutes. Turn temperature control dial to MIN, lowest setting, and
variable steam dial to lowest setting, and unplug.Let iron cool before storing it.
