WATER INSTRUCTIONS Your steam iron system has been planned for use with normal tap water. In order to extend the life of this product, if where you are living the level of water hardness is very high, we recommend to use 50% of normal water with 50% of demineralised or distilled water.
SPECIAL NOTE:: The J490A anti-calc warning system will automatically shut itself off after 57 gallons (218 litres) of water, if the programming instructions have not been followed. It is suggested that you first clean the boiler following the cleaning instructions outlined on page 7.

11. It is safe to leave water in the pressure tank when the iron is not in use. If it is for an extended period of time (months) then it is best to flush out the remaining water. To do so, follow the water removal instructions as outlined in the maintenance of the boiler section.
How to iron? Everyone has their own idea on the best way to iron, and really there is no one right way. The most important thing to remember is to set the temperature dial on the iron (13) to the temperature that most closely matches the fabric that you are pressing.
Do not operate the steam cleaner with a damaged cord, plug or if the steam cleaner has been dropped or damaged. To avoid risk of electric shock, do not disassemble or attempt to repair the unit on your own. Return the unit to Reliable Corporation (see warranty) for examination, repair or replacement.
