ANTI-DRIP FEATURE
Steam cannot be produced if the
soleplate is not hot enough. It may
result in water spitting or leaking from
the soleplate. This iron is built with an
anti-drip feature which reduces water
dripping and leaking when ironing at

more water, so you may have to fill the
tank more often.
Before filling the iron with water,
always make sure the cord is not
plugged into the electrical outlet.
Be very careful when filling the iron
with water. Injuries may occur if you or
your family comes in contact with the
hot metal parts, hot water or steam.
Never fill the iron with fabric condi-
tioner, starches or any other liquid
because these will damage the steam
mechanism. Don't use contaminated
water either.
DO NOT aim iron at yourself or anyone
else while adjusting steam. Be careful,
burns or serious injury may occur.
